This is really a great, comfortable place to stay, its spacey, has a modern kitchen with separate countertop, is quiet - located on the third floor at the rear of the building and isolated from traffic noise. João und Manuela are very friendly and helpful hosts ready to fulfil your special needs quickly and punctually. Nearby you find a supermarket, the best bakeries with a dazzling selection of pastries and you can also enjoy shopping where the locals go. Sightseeing? Just hop on the very efficient Metro (transit system, only a few-minutes walk to the nearby Marques station) which will take you quickly to the centre of attractions downtown or directly to the either side of the Douro river over the famous Dom Luís I bridge.
