We arrived late (around midnight) but however it was no problem, since we got to the apartment easily by metro from the airport.

Mario already waited for us at the station, which is not even 1min away from the apartment (just across the street). He showed us the apartment, explained a few things and also gave us some advices, that he highlighted on the city map.

We liked the cute apartment which is like in the REAL center of Porto. Everything we needed was available (including a hairdryer, ...). We expected it to be a bit noisy at night + in the morning, sine it's in the very center and that's how we also experienced it. In the morning you hear some traffic and (depending on how long you sleep) also some tourists and locals taking their breakfast in one of the several cafés which are directly underneath the building + the apartment. For us, however, this was no big deal, because we don't have any problem with some noise and we wanted to explore the city in the morning, anyways. :-)

If you want a very central, cute apartment with a nice atmosphere and you don't have a problem with some noise in the morning, Mario's apartment is the right choice. :-)
