The apartment of Filipe in Vila Nova de Gaia is great. We had a very pleasant stay. Not to forget the amazing view from the balcony at the river and Porto. The apartment is spacious, light, modern and newly decorated and everything you need is available. The location is very convenient with the metro station just in front of the building (can give you some noise at night, but you get used to it). The metro takes you downtown in a few minutes and it's also very convenient with traveling from and to the airport. By foot it's a ten/fifteen minute walk to take you to the old city centre of Porto.
There's a supermarket closeby and a café below where you can drink some coffee and get delicious bakeries.
Filipe is also a very nice host who wants to make your stay perfect. He was very helpfull giving us all the information we needed about the city and kept in touch during our stay. We felt really welcome. This apartment is a good choise to have a wonderful time in Porto!
