Elisa and Luis have a very beautiful apartment in the lively and central historic part of Porto that is walkable to most attractions and/or is accessible by public transportation. Their pastry shop downstairs has excellent food and service. Elisa and Luis are genuine and generous hosts. Breakfast was wonderful each morning and even when I had an early plane departure they prepared a take away meal to help me get through my travels. I felt like my experience in Porto was made richer by staying at Elisa and Luis's place because I got to meet them and their baby son. They allowed me to feel like I was a part of their neighborhood by being a patron at their pastry shop. Simply watching folks come and go in the shop or just walking by and using the public plaza in front of the apartment balconey was a learning experience for me. Porto is a great place to visit and Elisa and Luis's place makes a super base from which to explore from as well as to be comfortable in if you just wish to relax. I highly recommend a stay.here and I only hope that I may return to visit again some day next trip!
