Paulo is a nice, flexible and communicative host and his appartment is very suitable as a base for a citytrip Porto: cosy, convenient, good facilities, well equipped (even a “classic” coffeemaker), walking distance to/from public transportation, close to supermarket.
There are some remarks though:
1. Availability of aircon was an important reason to choose the place, but at our arrival both (!) aircon-units turned out to be out of order, which was unfortunate during a heat wave in the following days. Paulo was unable to get it fixed during our 3 days stay. As a result we had to sleep with the windows open and were woken up by (for us too) early traffic noise.
2. The floor was not clean (white socks turned dark grey in little time)
3. The kitchen fan was out of order, and dirty because of grease deposits.
