We came from Sao Bento Metro Station, and it was 10 minutes downhill, however the opposite direction uphill from the apt takes a bit longer coz the streets r really steep!
Pedro welcome us to the apt and gave us some local tips, he was kind and very friendly.. U can communicate with him through whatsapp.. Aline was also reachable by texting, even before the trip..
The apt is located at Ribeira near the Douro river, so it’s close to the seafood restaurants by the river.. It’s also walkable to the Luis I Bridge..
If u wanna catch the hop on hop off bus, I’d suggest u go to the Ribeira stop coz it’s downhill, however Se Cathedral is also walkable, eventhough it’s uphill..
There r supermarkets like 3mins walk to both sides of the apt..
The apt itself is super nice! Modern look and clean.. The kitchenette is equipped with basic amenities.. They have hairdryer, good wifi, tea, coffee, and some other basic stuff u need for traveling..
1 thing that can be improved, about the portable heater.. It was still winter at end of Feb, and the temp rise from night till morning, so it got a bit colder around 6 degrees.. There is a small mirror in the bathroom, but a big mirror would be a plus.. And bedroom sandal would also be a plus since it was kinda cold..
Overall it was a really good stay and we’d recommend this place for sure!
