We returned to Joao’s apartments having had our best stay in Porto there last year, and this year was even better.
This time we stayed in his very spacious, and newly decorated top floor apartment which sleeps up to 6 people. There are two sparkling new bathrooms and the central living area is equipped with everything you could wish for, from a huge high tech fridge freezer to a fully equipped modern stylish kitchen dining area, which we made good use of on our stay. We slept in the larger bedroom at the front with a balcony onto Santa Catarina. Wonderfully bright and airy the room sleeps 4, while the cosier bedroom to the back of the apartment sleeps 2 with its own bathroom.
The location is amazing, right in heart of historic Porto, and so easy to come into from the airport on the metro, just a short walk up form Bolhao station.
The small balcony offers great views of Rua Santa Catarina, Porto’s famous mostly pedestrian shopping street, and some wonderful sunset skies at night.
If you are looking for a great value, quality apartment to from which to explore the many wonders of Porto, with excellent access to all the key places to visit - look no further.
We shall be back as soon we can!
