We stayed 1 month at Elisabeth's studio and it really was perfect for us. The location was exactly right for our needs. We did not have a car and we walked everywhere. You can easily walk to the center of town and many tourist attractions. We rarely took public transport (but it is also close by) because there is so much to do in walking distance. There are many restaurants and cafes nearby. But you do not feel you are in the middle of a very touristy area, which we really liked.
The apartment feels very bright and comfortable. The morning sun is a treat for coffee on the balcony and the whole place fills with light. The apartment is very well equipped and Elisabeth left us many extras- coffee, tea, chocolates etc. She is a perfect host. She checked on us as needed, answered every question and even brought us port and oranges for a birthday gift. Porto and Elisabeth's place were a wonderful experience. We highly, strongly, positively recommend. Thank you Elisababeth!
