We enjoyed staying at Herminio’s place in Porto. It was centrally located to many restaurants and shops. It was also within walking distance of the City Center and Old Ribeira. When we needed an Uber, we walked out to the street and had them pick us up there since cars cannot drive directly to the house. It’s located near a cluster of other homes and it feels as if you’re living like a local. The owners father-in-law lives directly across the home if you need anything, and he is very nice, friendly and accommodating.
We were welcomed with Port on the table and Pasteis de Nata pastries, which was a very nice gesture. The 2 rooms and bathroom are located upstairs, so you must be okay with climbing stairs whenever you need to use the restroom. They have a washer which was very convenient. The WiFi was not very strong there. It would often go in and out. Everything else about this home was perfect.
