We stayed at Rita's place for 9 nights during our trip to Porto. Even though we had a late flight and came to Rita's place at 2am, we were warmly welcomed by Armanda.
The apartment is big, it has 2 bedrooms, 2 balconies and a big living room and kitchen. As there were 4 of us, it was great that there was a bathroom and a separate toilet. The apartment is very well equipped and and it has everything you need and more, from toothpaste, soap, lotions and shampoos, dishwasher tablets and even a coffee machine. It is perfect for long stays.
During our stay Armanda offered to bring us clean towels, linen, and she was responsive whenever we needed something. The communication with her was smooth and pleasant at all times.
The neighbourhood is a 20 minutes walking distance from the city centre. It is a neighbourhood that allows you to take a peak into everyday life of Porto, without crowds of tourists and a genuine local atmosphere. It has a lot of bakeries, restaurants, small fruit stores, a laundromat, supermarkets and many more.
We absolutely loved both Rita's place and the neighbourhood and would definitely come back.
