Apartment located in street away from buzzing town, you see locals around only, no tourists, no hotels around, but thats exactly what we love it. Still very short distance to centre. Downstairs there is bakery, to grab your morning coffee and freshly baked croissants. In pictures you can see big curtains closed up, but i think they hide best feature of apartment, absolutely loved to open them up and see the street through big big windows with french balcony. On nice sunny day can easily sit there and drink your coffee watching locals passing by. We both totaly agreed that windows are the best part in this apartment. So much light,so much character.
Apartment located only few minutes away from metro station. Small but very functional kitchen, fully equipped. Shower is great, with big shower head. Everything looks freshly redecorated. Comfortable bed. Clean sheets and towels.Air conditioner let you to control room temperature easily. We have nothing to complain about. Absolutely love it our short stay in Helenas place. We never had chance to meet her, but girl who work to Helena, met us in the street at exact time we agreed. She was very helpfull, polite, fluent in english,she even offer to help us with lugages. She has maps of Porto and give us very detailed advices about best places to eat, best places to shop etc. We always avoid touristy traps with overpriced food, and nothing authentic, and her advices was very helpfull. My personal advice is ,avoid eating in Ribiera, food is not good there and overpriced.
