This was my first visit to Porto and Toc Toc Yellow and Hugo couldn't have made it any better.
Toc Toc Yellow is in a great location. You will be central to walking to all of the best Porto has to offer. Anything you need, i.e., restaurants, coffee shop, groceries, pharmacy, sweets, etc. is literally outside of the door or around the corner. It is very easy to get to using the metro from the airport which is what I did. The space is very clean, well supplied, and comfortable. The WiFi was flawless.
Hugo is a great host. He was a great communicator pre trip offering several options on how to get to the unit. He met me at the unit and provided a detailed walk through on showing all of the amenities and how to operate them. He provided an overview of the area, made suggestions for places to visit, and had a nice map to give me as a guide. Most importantly, he asked about me, my interests to see, and offered any assistance I may need during my stay in Porto.
Hugo as a friend. I never met Hugo until the day I arrived in Porto. During our initial conversation I mentioned that I was visiting Portugal to look at properties to buy. I told him I was working with a realtor from Lisbon and they were going to show me numerous properties in Porto (two days), Lisbon (two days) and the Algarve (two days). The next day when I met up with the realtor he said he had ONE property to show me during my two days in Porto. I mentioned my disappointment to Hugo that I felt that I had wasted my time and money traveling all the way to see one property. Hugo said, "Let me see what I can do." Hugo spent hours on the phone calling realtors in the city. He managed to find 3 realtors on short notice to show me many properties. Not only that, Hugo advised me about the neighborhoods the were located in. He also advised me on fair pricing. In a short time Hugo went from a host to someone I consider a friend. He went way out of his way to help another person that was in need.
I have departed Porto, but I remain in communication with Hugo. You will love Toc Toc Yellow. You will appreciate Hugo as a host. And you may even make a lifelong friend during your stay.
