Porto is a wonderful city and this is a lovely place to stay when spending a few days here. Ana’s apartment has everything you need and is in a great location. You are only 5 minutes walk from the main train station (Sao Bento). Don’t be worried that you are on a busy tourist street, the apartment is very quiet and feels very relaxed. It is bright, airy and equipped with everything you need for your stay. Ana makes everything easy by providing clear instructions and guides. The coffee machine was welcome in the morning and so were the cold beers she provided in the fridge. You certainly appreciate these after a day walking up and down hills.
We would have no hesitation in staying here again 😀
Tips for Porto:
- Don’t bother with the bookshop (too busy)
- Do take a boat ride on the Douro, but take one of the smaller boats from the Gaia side of the river.
