Enjoyed our stay at Casa Formosa very much. Joao was helpful and informative, enthusiastic and creative about Porto and Portugal, which added to our enjoyment of the city and it surroundings. We were guided to family restaurants, informal fado, and markets. The room was comfortable and clean and the shared bathrooms kept spotless. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful. All in all a very good experience. Even the noisy gulls and the odd lorry or machine in the night became just part of the rich mix. Thank you, Joao.
