Let me start off with two things: The location is absolutely incredible & Pedro is a PHENOMENAL host.
Pedro shuttled us from the airport to the apartment (for an additional fee, totally worth it) and upon early arrival, the cleaning crew was there doing their thing. From the pictures it's hard to picture where the apartment was actually located, but it's at the top of a hill right under the Blini restaurant...like physically under. There is a flight of stairs and several apartments underneath and the restaurant happens to be located on top. The hotel, being on a hillside offers INCREDIBLE views from Gaia's side of the river. It's an EASY walk to markets, across the bridge to Porto and through the city. Uber is REALLY inexpexpensive out there, and since the city is so compact, it's easy to navigate on foot. The apartment was clean, the beds were comfortable, but most of all Pedro's hospitality was unparallelled. He sat an showed us all the spots we needed to see in 48 hours, where he recommended eating and what he recommended ordering. We followed his suggestions and had a blast! I absolutely recommend Pedro and his apartment. I will most definitely stay here when I get back!
