We were two couples visiting Porto for the first time. Paulo was waiting for us at check in and greatly assisted us in taking our bags up two flight of stairs. His apartment was tastefully decorated, sparkling clean and had all the amenities for a very comfortable stay. Paulo had stocked a lot of welcoming goodies, a decanter of port, a large bottle of water, a bowl of fruits, yogurt, butter and milk. He personally walked us to the main street, provided maps and guided us in the direction of the streets where all the highlights of Porto are located. The apartment is conveniently located and enabled us to easily walk to all of Porto's main attractions. Paulo owns a restaurant on the main street where the food is exceptionally good. Paulo's hospitality had a lot of personal touches. A small example was that at departure Paulo and his wife were waiting for us with two breakfast boxes.
From our personal experience I would rate Paulo not just a super host but an exceptional super host whose hospitality knows no boundaries.
