The home of Carlos and Isabel is situated a mere 3 minute walk from the coast of the Atlantic ocean. A beautiful park is just across the street and the frequent 500 bus will take you all the way to the historical center of Porto in about 20 minutes. Nearby you will find cafe's with delicious pastry and coffee. Scenic beaches are also very close. The air, especially in the morning, is filled with the smell of the ocean that will surely empower you for the adventures of the day, of which Porto has plenty to offer.
The room itself was incredibly cozy and clean, smelling of fresh linen. Felt more like a 5 star hotel room than an affordable Airbnb location. The room has its own entrance with access to the street as well as a private shower and toilet room. You can bar the access from the rest of the house for extra privacy. There's also a fish tank to stare at to help you relax. Upon arrival we found cookies, tea and a small kettle to boil water with that our hosts kindly left for us.
All of our requests and wishes were met with utmost kindness and keen will to help. Our hosts made us feel welcome and showed true southern European hospitality.
We highly recommend Carlos's place to anyone looking to enjoy their vacation in Porto.
