We met Cristina and Carlos in the small bar just besides the apartment and when we had a nice typical Porto lunch waiting to meet them. They greeted us warmly and we got a good tour of the house and lots of information about Porto. The apartment is as shown on the pictures and we really liked it. A small problem in the bathroom was fixed to complete satisfaction the same day after a phone call. Our stay in this part of Porto, very close to the river and the Sao Bento railway station, was excellent. Lots of small restaurants, cafe's etc. Also shopping for wines and other interesting goods around the corner. The apartment is very suitable for a family with 2 children or 4 friends. Modern furniture and all kitchen utensils were present. I would definitely come back and suggest is to my family and friends. It's a lot of stairs going up, but you will have to do a lot of climbing walking around the city of Porto any way. Obrigado again Carlos and Cristina for you hospitality and help!
