Look no further than this apartment! Located a stone's throw from the fabled RIBERA neighborhood, this quiet, elegant fourth floor walk-up apartment (with sunny roof terrace!) is the PERFECT location to be in to see all there is to see in Porto.
The apartment itself is elegantly appointed--with super comfortable bedding made up with high-quality cotton linens & comforter; a fully stocked kitchen complete with silverware, pots, pans, glasses & china; a mini-fridge & microwave oven; a 2-burner cook top ideal for small meals; a Nespresso-type (Krups) coffee maker; a complimentary bar stocked with locally made port, gin, Scotch (and a bottle of vinho verde in the fridge); an elegant bathroom with excellent rain shower, good water pressure & plenty of towels; triple French doors to the terrace; table, chairs and umbrella on the terrace itself (with lovely blankets for chilly mornings & nights); a spectacular view of the Douro River and the hill communities on the other side; stereo; free wireless; flat-screen TV; custom lighting in closets and along stairways; even colorful geraniums in boxes along the terrace railing!
The lovely host family met us after a delayed flight from Paris and helped us carry our bags in, marked a map to show us of the great places to visit and eat in the area, etc. This was by far one of THE BEST AirBNB experiences we've ever had across the USA & Europe. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
