LOCATION: The guesthouse is in a really cool and hip location with great bars and cafes all around. It is tucked away from downtown Porto so you get the feeling you are surrounded more by locals than tourists and the vibe is great. It's still only a short walk into town but I would say the location is perfect.
CHECK IN: Probably one of the easiest I have dealt with on AIRBNB. No waiting around outside for people to turn up. Code, keys inside and straight to my room. From arriving at the door, checking in, finding my room, dropping my things off and sitting at a local bar drinking beer was less than 15 minutes
THE PLACE: It's best described as a really nice hostel but so much more. The rooms are quite big with everything you need for a stay. Bathrooms are great, good showers and sparkling clean at all times. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook and there is a nice terrace out the back.
Yes the shared bathrooms are one per floor but I never had any problems getting access same with the kitchen.
I'm hoping to return in the Spring time to Porto and if this guesthouse is available it will be my first choice.
