Manuel's place is in a great location (although not accessible by car, it is in a place they call "the island" where cars cannot pass through. It is close to the main street, however, and steps from the Duoro and many great restaurants/squares. The place is clean and tidy. I would not reccommend anyone with limited mobility to rent this apartment--the showers are tiny (I'm a small girl and still had some trouble turning around) and you have to go up VERY steep steps to get to the second floor with the bedrooms. Overall, it's a nice place and very charming location.
