This apartment is absolutely fantastic! We thought this apartment would be small being as it's a studio, but it is so spacious it's ridiculous! The bedroom is off to the side of the living, tucked away and has plenty of room to move around the bed, which is really comfortable! The living area is big with a couch, tv and plenty of room to move about and then there is the separate kitchen and dining, fantastic! The bathroom is also big and the shower is fantastic! Although it is technically a studio apartment, we found it more than large enough for the two of us for 4 days​!
The apartment is also absolutely spotless and very modern, it has all the amenities you could need and more. The area is really well designed as well, including interior decorating which we found really, really nice!
Communication with the host was an ease, and when I explained my phone wouldn't make phone calls while away, he even rang me to check where we were as we were approaching. We were met at the apartment by Anaisa who was really nice and explained absolutely everything to us. She even gave us a map and showed us some of her favourite places to go, including a great spot to watch the sunset, which we ended up at a few times during our trip!
The apartment is in a perfect location. It has a Starbucks literally right next door for a quick and easy coffee or snack when you need it, and is within walking distance to all the local attractions/sights. It's a 10-minute stroll down the hill to the Ribeira and only took us 20 minutes to walk to the other side of the river, where we were soon enjoying some Port Wine Cocktails for Sandeman, brilliant.
Walking up the hill from the apartment you are 3 minutes from Sao Bento train station and about 10 - 15 minutes from the tower and other sights, it really is in the best spot possible. It is also very quiet once you close the windows, obviously with them open you get the noise from the street.
I could not recommend this apartment highly enough, everything makes it a perfect package. Great communication. Great hosts. Great location. Spotless and modern, spacious apartment. What more could you want? There is also a lift for those who can't, or don't want to climb the stairs!
If you are going to visit Porto, seriously consider this apartment. I will definitely be recommending to friends and family when they visit Porto, and will definitely book again when returning to Porto!
