Regina’s place is nearly perfect. Beautifully done, with a full kitchen and a comfortable bed. The view from the kitchen and living room is amazing. It’s very close to many of downtown Porto’s best attractions, and you can easily walk to them. There was only one negative about this place, and it’s the only thing holding me back from an unreserved five star review: the shower.
The shower works fine. However the shower pan is approximately 50 cm x 50 cm. It has glass doors and walls. This cubicle is almost laughably small. It was nearly impossible for me, a 1.8 m tall man, to fit in it. I needed to open the doors to wash my feet and back. You can’t bend over. And because the plumbing fixtures extend into the cube, the space is usably even smaller. At least you will save water, as military showers are mandatory.
Other than the shower the flat is perfect. And despite this observation I would stay here again. In the end it’s more an inconvenience, not a deal breaker.
