Alexandra was really responsive in communication, and was there to check us in when we arrived, with plenty of information about sightseeing, local restaurants etc. The apartment is spacious, well-equipped, clean, quiet, and has TWO amazing balconies. Note that while the apartment is very central in Porto, it's not *right* in the touristic center. You can walk to the Ribeira neighborhood in about 25-30 minutes (passing lots of restaurants, shops, churches) - and the apartment itself is in a very residential, non-touristy part of the city, which is exactly what we were looking for. Porto is very hilly (gorgeous!) but plan accordingly for distance AND elevation changes!
