We thought the best thing about Joao's apartment would be the easy access to parking (straight off the street into the garage directly under the building). And the parking was great - but the apartment itself was even better than it looks in the photos. It's modern, spacious, absolutely spotless and with a lot of natural light. It's on the fourth floor (with a lift from the garage/front door on street level) and so has views over the houses, backyards and street at both the front and back. There's a sunny little balcony off the bedroom which is great place to enjoy a coffee in the morning. The apartment is really well set up and would also be ideal for a long stay. When we arrived Joao was there to direct us to the right place in the garage and explained everything about the apartment. His tips on what to see, where to eat, a good place for breakfast etc were excellent. And the apartment is not far from all the main sights of Porto. We would definitely recommend Joao's apartment as a base for a visit to Porto.
