Cristina is a wonderful, caring and very professional host. My arrival in Porto was beset by many delays and I finally arrived tired, a little lost, and a bit confused. But Christina had held on and stayed until I got there so that I could be welcomed and acquainted with all aspects of the apartment. Which was a wonderful, stylish, well equipped and very safe harbor for me during the beginnings of the Coronavirus pandemic. Fortunately there were nearby markets, pharmacies, etc near her well situated location. During good times and bad it is well placed, near to (but not on top of), busy and interesting spots to explore. The building faces a quiet little ‘square’ and yet both the kitchen and bedroom overlook a splendid view of the city towards the river Duro. I am very much looking forward to a return to Porto, and Cristina’s apartment will be the place I hope to stay again.
