We had a lovely stay at Rafaela and Celio’s apartment. The well appointed apartment was tidy, quiet, and compact. It met all of our needs for our five night stay. Rafaela and Celio are excellent hosts and we’re very helpful. Celio met us upon arrival and got us situated in the apartment with helpful information on where to buy groceries (Pingo Doce, Cedofeita) along with favorite dining options. The view from the balcony is wonderful and we enjoyed spending time outside in the evenings (it is important to note that in order to have that amazing view, one must be willing to climb three flights of stairs).
The location in the Vitória neighborhood is very convenient, making nearly all of the attractions in Porto within walking distance. The infamous Livraria Lello (aka the Harry Potter Bookstore) and the #18 and #22 Trams are only a three minute walk away. There are dozens (and dozens) of dining options within a short walk and wandering the surrounding streets is a lot of fun.   We would gladly stay in Rafaela and Celio’s place again.
