Pros
The apartment is large with a lovely sun filled living room with a great aspect looking out towards the sea. The apartment is well located, a few hundred meters from the beach with plenty of amenities near by, a good supermarket, beach bars, cafes and restaurants. Matosinhos was a better place for us to stay for a few weeks then the centre of Porto which is busy and very hilly which isn't ideal for a pram.
Cons
The fixtures and fittings in the apartment are dated and this caused us quite a few problems. John was quick to respond and helpful in getting them resolved however the apartment could do with a bit of an update. It is not really suitable for small children as the window sills are very low and there is no protective barrier to stop them falling out if the windows are left open.
