We were visiting during the big festival on June 23rd. It was a little difficult getting to the place only because all the streets were closed due to the festival. I highly enjoyed all the hits on the head with toy hammers while walking to our place. Obviously the hosts have no control over the streets being closed. Porto is absolutely amazing and this apartment was perfect to see fire works and enjoy the night life. We were right in the middle of everything. Just be ready to do some walking upstairs nothing to be really concerned about unless your really out of shape. The views of the bridges and water were amazing. Easy access would definitely stay again. Porto you will surely be missed!
