I loved the location of Gisela's place, in the centre of the port district and an easy walk to the river and restaurants, the bridge and all the tourist spots on the opposite bank. The décor is relaxed, attractive and functional - very nice shower and lovely soft pillows. I was visiting in winter and Gisela had put the heater on before my arrival at night, which was much appreciated. Gisela herself is a very generous and friendly host who will also respect your privacy. She is very knowledgeable and I benefited from her advice about Lisbon and the rest of my travel plans in Portugal in addition to Porto itself. She went out of her way to help me with everything I needed. Thanks Gisela!
