Cristiana was a truly golden star hostess! Her home is lovely and filled with so many stylish and personal touches (lots of books, art, and charming furniture). She provided me with plenty of maps of the city and a reusable metro card so I wouldn’t have to pay for a new one, as well as all the best recommendations for restaurants and sights to see. She went absolutely above and beyond on my last night when I was having trouble with my train to Lisbon and even called the train station for me since I don’t speak much Portuguese. A human angel!!
The room has a beautiful view of Porto, and plenty of space to feel like you can “sprawl out.” Her patio is also the perfect little nook to enjoy on sunnier days. The apartment is three blocks from two bus lines that go across town and can get you to the beach in 20-30 minutes or about a 30 minute walk from the city.
If you’re looking for a quaint and comfortable stay out of the hustle and bustle of the downtown area, Cristiana’s home is the perfect thing!
