João was an awesome host and always available. He couldn't welcome us personally on arrival, but he sent his friend Pedro, who was very friendly too. The apartment has everything you may need and there is a metro station 10 minutes walk, but you can reach the city center easily by foot. Oporto is wonderful and worth the effort of walking up and down all the many hilly streets! We highly recommend the flat and, in the city, Plaça Lisboa, which is a truly relaxing place to pass the afternoon with a portotonico :)
