This is a cozy studio in the fishing village of Afurada, about an hour's walk from central Porto. Afurada is full of groovy grannies, and has a slightly kamikaze party atmosphere. It also has a fish market and some good cheap restaurants. It's a world away from the tourist frenzy of Porto. The downside is the transport into Porto is a but tricky, particularly when the only direct bus is on strike or not running on sundays / public holidays (as was our case). Having said that a taxi back from the center is only €7-10. Although I loved Afurada, and Maria was the perfect hostess, be warned that it's not ideal for exploring central Porto unless you have your own transport.
