The good:
The actual AirBNB is very, very nice. Spacious, clean, modern. Has 2 really incredible decks - one downstairs and one upstairs. The location is about a 5-7min car ride from downtown Porto - certainly not a bad thing if you prefer not to be in the mix!
The bad:
Check in was quite challenging because we couldn't find the apartment! José finally met me once I found it and told me that he usually meets people at the top of the road to avoid any confusion. But for some reason that option was not offered to me which was a bit disappointing. Definitely request to meet him so he can show you where the apartment is. We had no hot water for our entire stay!! Nothing like traveling for hours across seas to finally arrive at your destination and not be able to take a hot shower. José was great at communicating before we arrived but once I messaged him about the hot water issue, he didn't respond for about 36 hours - until the day we left. (To be fair to, there was a national holiday, but that really is no excuse to not communicate). He was apologetic and gave me a small refund for the inconvenience. Also, bring your own soap. They supplied shampoo I believe, but that was it.
