Ruis is a very gracious, kind and thoughtful host. The apartment is absolutely charming and in a perfect location near the river. Ruis provided us with excellent tips, suggestions for restaurants and helped with our luggage. The aparment is up a narrow staircase because it is in a historic area. Completely renovated, it has all you need, including AC, good WIFI, nice shower, fully stocked kitchen. It is compact, yet stylish and comfortable. We enjoyed our stay very much and highly recommend. The area is surrounded by excellent restaurants and bars. A grocery store is within walking distance. The HopOn HopOff bus was hot and tiresome, took a long time to do the loop. The sunset along the Duoro River - just a short walk away - is memorable and amazing. Enjoy!
