As Maria was busy the day we arrived we were greeted at the flat by her friend Paula who was very nice. She talked us through a city map of Porto and gave us a lot of excellent advice. The flat itself is very sunny and safe, in close proximity to the city center. The design is a nice blend of local Portugese and Scandinavian. Very pretty and quiet. We had a wonderful time. The only suggestion we have would be perhaps setting up a dehumidifier device as the flat was a little damp. While this did not really bother us, the air and fabrics in the flat were somewhat moist... Aside from this, we felt right at home! Thank you Maria!
