Casa Amarela is a great, renovated space close to the old town center of Porto as well as the river banks. It is in walking distance to a subway stop and there are many buses departing from right in front of the door.
The two-story apartment is very spacious with a minimal clutter; but you can find all you need for a group of 4 or 6. There are two and a half bathrooms, a laundry machine, dishwasher and an induction cooktop, alongside an oven and a microwave; internet tv and a huge beautiful yard are great bonuses for sure.
Nuria, our host, was very warm and welcoming. Check-in and check out were a breeze. More importantly Nuria provided many tips and suggestions to visit around town. It was like having a private tour guide to take a virtual trip around town. We visited most of her suggested places and definitely enjoyed all of them.
One small issue is the humidity, especially downstairs, but nothing a cheap humidifier can't fix, if the host decided to get one.
Both I and my family would love to visit and stay with Casa Amarela again in the future.
