We were flying in from Madrid and our flight was slightly delayed. Message the host to relay our delay to our pick up driver, and received immediate response. We decided to book a airport meet and great through our host. Alex, our driver, meet us at arrival hall and helped us to the car. The car is itself was spacious and clean. Alex spoke perfect English and offered some advice and tips on Porto. We arrived to our apartment and Nathan showed us around and gave us some recommendations on what to do and where to go. A map was provided and he outlined the popular must see and do places in Porto.
The apartment itself is spacious, modern and clean. The window faces Rue de Cedofeita. Its mainly used for pedestrians, but locals can drive on this road. Can get noisy but by closing the windows, you’ll get complete silence. I was impressed and thankful. Nespresso machine is a nice touch. The apartment building is fully renovated with an ELEVATOR! So nice if you have luggage. The apartment is located on the 3rd floor.
The area is fantastic. Feels more like a local area but not far from the sights. Great restaurants are less than 5-10 min walk. Nice small park nearby is you want to sit and relax. 5 mins walk to the Livraria Lello and Igreja do Carmo.
Contacting the host was not a problem. Always there if we needed something.
Overall, it was a great stay. I would come back and would recommend this place.
