Relaxing stay in the center of Porto
This was an excellent, clean apartment in the heart of Porto, close to the river. Sónia was a responsive host and gave clear check-in instructions. Definitely would stay again!

Week in Porto
Very good stay, apartment was clean and in a great location, close to all the sites, lots of dining options within a 5 -10 min walk.. the only complaint i have is that the elevator didnt work, amd the apartment is on the 3rd floor. Not a huge deal for us, we walked the whole city!

Perfect location in the historic section and only steps away from the Douro River. We were able to walk to all things Porto. The apartment is clean, comfortable and convenient. We would surely stay again if we re-visit Porto.

Modern Apartment in Ancient Building
Surgical suite clean and very attractive, but furnished in a vary spartan way. Kitchen could have been suppplied a little better - drinking glasses, etc. Listing said there was a soaking tub of some kind but not to be found. Texted host but she didn’t respond. In fairness I think she has family issues out of town and was preoccupied. Very nice elevator but really slow and acted kind of squirrelly the last couple of days. Great bathroom but could use some shelf space. Best of all? The location is spectacular and has groceries, liquor, and several good restaurants within a block. Can see part of Luis 1 bridge from the room. About 8 min walk to Metro. Perfect? No. Thumbs up? Yes.

Great stay!
Perfect 3rd floor apartment for two people. Small, quiet, clean, comfortable, great location. Old building but newly renovated. Hot in the summer (no A/C) but fan and light breeze with windows open was nice at night. Easy self check-in/out. Highly recommend!

Great Apartment, Great Location, Great Host
This apartment is really nice and has everything you would need for a short or long stay. My husband and I stayed for a month and were very comfortable. It is well located, right in the middle of all the action. It is also close to the train and metro which was super convenient. And the host, Sónia, was wonderful. She gave great information for check-in and helpful information for our stay. She was also very quick to respond to any questions or needs. I would definitely recommend this place. I know we’ll stay here again if/when we return to Porto.

Great location. Me and my wife are 70 years old, therefore the steep uphill to the building carrying luggage was a bit cumbersome. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. This building has the slowest elevator ever, So be patient.

Lovely apartment, grreat location
We stayed a week in the apartment. it was perfect. Looks just like the photos. Great location, central to everything and so easy to check in. The host was always quick to answer any questions we had. I would recommend to anyone to stay here. Close to the river, bars and restaurants. My only problem was the elevator didn't work all week and climbing 3 flights of stairs a few times a day was hard work, not to mention getting the luggage up there day 1. However that is not enough to put me off recommending this apartment.
