This was the best Airbnb experience I have ever had—from the first communication with Laurent to our reluctant departure after four days in Porto. We hated to leave a place that had come to seem like home—or a dream of what home could be.
The apartment is as beautiful as it looks in the photos—it is a gracious space with a lot of light and a view (and no street noise since it’s at the back of the building). Everything works.
We were inspired to shop in markets and bring food back to prepare because we loved being in this beautiful space, out of the tourist fray (but centrally located).
Laurent is a great communicator—he answers inquiries and requests immediately and clearly. After so many impersonal Airbnb experiences I appreciated that he met us at the building to introduce us to the place.
Staying in a special place helps you love the whole travel experience—and we have already talked about going back to Porto and staying here again sometime.
