As this is in fact an apartment run by a private company with many apartments, and not really the sort of airbnb experience we are used to, Diana did not meet us, but instead a representative of the company did. That was our mistake as we should have read the listing more carefully. That said, the apartment couldn't have been in a better position and it was very well appointed and extremely clean. It was not exactly as portrayed in the photos -- I get the impression that they are all somewhat similar and vary slightly. What we thought was a functional balcony where we could it outside and have breakfast , behind the sofa in lounge room area did not exist in our apartment-- the very small balcony we did have was off the bedroom and was standing room only. It's not a big difference I guess especially when the wonderful position of the apartment and good facilities were taken into account (though there were initial issues establishing internet connection and the internet did not allow access to all sites -- which also made us aware that this was not so much a typical airbnb property as one that is run by a company.) As I said, the apartment was very clean and comfortable. Some really wonderful restaurants, bars and cafes in the immediate area -- right next door and others a few steps away. In fact one bank of the Douro River waterfront , shops and more magnificent food places, is only several metres from the front door. Porto is a joy to explore.
