Jose’s place is great for exploring Porto by foot. It’s centrally located within walking distance to all the important sites, restaurants, shopping, train station, bus, metro. The studio is cozy, stylish, comfortable and well appointed with everything you need. The only thing one should be aware of is that the place is on the ground floor which is good as you don’t have to climb any stairs but that also means that the windows are at the steet level and if you want to keep them open passers by can see inside. The windows are opaque so you get outside light and people cannot see inside. It was not a problem for us as it was cold and we had the heater on. And I guess in the summer you’d have the AC on. Just something to be aware of. Although the place is on a steet with traffic it is not noisy because the windows face a side steet with no traffic. And it was very quiet. We enjoyed our stay here.
