Our stay was wonderful, the accommodation is very centrally located and a very short walk to supermarkets and bars and restaurants. We had everything we needed and it was extremely clean and tidy. We even had natas and port as a welcome gift! The air con was great and the area was quiet at night. We both felt really safe walking around and found the porto people very friendly. The river and the amazing atmosphere is just a short wander. We found a lovely bar coming back from the river up ALOT of steps...but we also used the funicular to get up the hill when we were tired. I was sad to come home and would return to Herminios place in a heart beat.
