We stayed in this apartment, 3rd floor back and was amazing, balcony gets sun all afternoon until around 7pm, hot hot hot. View of the Douro river can also be seen to left of balcony. Seating and table available as well as two deck chairs. This is a central apartment, great for all amenities, all within 10/15 minutes walk away. Sitting watching sunset before it went behind roofs was just lovely. Apartment block was also very quiet, no noise at all. We had a self-check in due to covid 19 and the host's were so helpful with communications via messages, anything you want they provided answers and very quick too. We had a problem with internet password, and they sorted it within minutes, only a wrong digit. Couldn't fault this apartment at all, clean and all very comfortable. Hopefully we will be back.
