This place is very centrally located, close to the train station, with easy parking nearby. We drove into Porto, parked, and walked everywhere while we were in town. Pedro greeted us, and with every communication was exactly as you want a host to be--his first comment or question to you is always "welcome home" or "how are you enjoying Porto"--it's a small simple gesture, but sets the tone for any communication, and was so much appreciated, esp. after our long drive up from Lisbon and getting lost trying to find our way from the freeway into town!
The place is just as you see in the pictures--the one thing that you can't see in the fotos is that the 2nd bedroom is separated from the rest of the house by a 3/4 wall, so you do get light and sound coming in from the rest of the house. For us it wasn't a problem, but if you are a light sleeper or have little kids, it's good to be aware of. And in fairness, despite being on one of the most popular streets, we never had a problem with noise (we were out until 11 or 12 anyway, but still--nice that things shut down at a fairly reasonable hour to let us have quiet nights).
As Pedro will tell you, Porto is a great town, and everywhere we went we had excellent food and people were super friendly. Very safe, and pleasant all around. This apartment is the perfect base to explore this wonderful city!
