WOW! What an apartment! his was an incredibly pleasant stay--I don't know why anyone would stay on the other side of the river. This felt open and airy and quiet, which is exactly what I had hoped to get from Porto. The view from the balcony is better than what you see on Porto postcards. You see bends in the river and Porto lit up at night. It's a ten minute walk to the town of Porto. The place itself is soothingly appointed in white and bright green plants, with luxurious linens on each bed.
The two bathrooms were floor to ceiling chic white marble. T Marcelo and Ana were wonderful hosts. When my travel companion had to leave for an emergency, they sent me a full panoply of things to do and vegan places to eat. Because of them, I ended up having a great time in Porto, even though I was on my own. I wish I was still there!
