The apartment has been lovingly restored with a good balance of rustic and modern charm. Having a stove was a real bonus on chilly nights and Afonso generously provided wood for our stay. The location of the apartment could not be better. All of our favorite spots in Porto are less than a 10min walk. Just outside the door is a great sandwich shop, a traditional Portuguese restaurant, and a great coffee shop. And the street is still quiet. This would've been an easy 5 stars except for some works happening next door. Mornings and evenings are quiet. If you'll be out and about during the day, you won't be bothered at all. I was only bothered while having work to do in the apartment. Otherwise, it was a fabulous stay. I'll definitely look to Afonso again when I visit.
