if you are panning a trip to porto this is one of the most amazing spaces. right on the river, you wake to watch the boats in the morning and I can't describe just how beautiful the river is at night. Be aware to get up into town its a hike, but thats what porto is all about !! its a wonderful hike up the narrow winding streets (and means you can induce in all the beautiful restaurants with zero guilt!) we loved it everything you need is on your doorstep from tapas bars to hiring vespas.
