First time in Porto
Nice upside down apartment It would be helpful in the info given to know that one of the bathrooms is on a different floor from the bedrooms In a quiet neighbourhood with a short walk to the centre Met by Ismael with a glass of port which was a nice touch I'm very picky about about cleanliness and it could've been cleaner There were lots of long dark hairs in the double bedroom and downstairs bathroom that could not have been from anyone in our party The musty smell downstsirs mentioned in other reviews was evident when we arrived the source of which i suspect is the shower which had mold around the base and especially when you are in the shower and the door closed the part revealed was thick with black mold It was nice to have some outdoor space and breakfast on the terrace was lovely but a bit of weeding would improve the outlook

Lovely stay in Porto!
This is an amazing apartment on a quiet side street out of the tourist madness. It sits in an older "classic" building, but the interior has been renovated and appears as pictured. Ana arranged for a much appreciated early check-in to match our train arrival. She greeted us with a cheery smile and a glass of port. Her dining recommendations were right-on! The apartment is is short walk down to a park overlooking the river and a short walk up to the local park, restaurants, shops, and bus stops. We found all we needed in the nearby supermercados and bakeries including the fantastic local wines that we drank on the deck each day. There are two bedrooms on the ground floor which is one flight down from the entry. The first floor living area was open and airy. The kitchen was well supplied. There were two bathrooms each having a shower. Since this was our first stop, we did not realize how luxurious that was. There were 4 of us and we were quite comfortable. We would highly recommend this apartment and MajordHome management company for your travel needs.

Porto break
Enjoyable stay in Porto in good accommodation - coordination with owners was easy and efficient. The spacious balcony area was excellent for evening relaxation. Quiet neighbourhood with c. 15 minutes walk to centre.

Great spot in Porto
A very well laid out, clean and conveniently located property in Porto. Check-in and supports were helpful and responsive. Only thing to note (and has been noted by others) is a musty smell, particularly noticeable in the lower level. That said, I wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

Great location, intially a little musty in the downstairs bedrooms. Very good air con which was needed - 30c some days and comfy beds and pillows. Well equipped kitchen and useful to have a bathroom on each level. Would go back again

Convenient and comfortable for 2 couples.
Very convenient and comfortable apartment in a location near the river, a short but hilly walk to the historic center. We enjoyed our stay and felt quite secure. The apartment had everything we needed for a few days. The hosts were kind enough to email us a packet with nearby restaurants and sights for advance planning.

Nice but not without difficulties
The property management team was very responsive until we actually got there. They were a bit snippy when I had a complaint, but made up for it when we had trouble operating the clothes washer. I recommend using them to get picked up from the airport, but not to the train station, because the cost is the same as it was from the airport for a 5-minute ride to the station. A taxi would have been a third of the cost. The description should be clearer & show that both bedrooms are down a steep flight of stairs. This was difficult for my mother & she fell once. Overall though, pretty good.

Bright, easy apartment
Everything is as pictured, no nasty surprises on the ground! The apartment is about a 10-15 min walk from the center of things. It was nicely furnished in an Ikea kind of way, which works well with the older charm of the building. We arrived earlier than expected (though still within normal hours) and the company accommodated the change easily. Also it was very quiet. Agree with another comment that the stairs are pretty steep going down, if that would bother your group.

A Few Days in Porto
This is a wonderful modern apartment that is well located to explore Porto. Unit is bright and well appointed. Management company was great to work with. Pedro met us at check in and spent time with us answering all our questions and making suggestions for local restaurants and stores. We walked everywhere we wanted to go from this location. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful apartment in a great location!
Everything was just as pictured. Super clean. Wonderful location within walking access to everything. Back deck is a nice outdoor space. Only thing to be aware of is that the bedrooms are down a pretty steep set of stairs. So if that is a problem for some this would not be the apartment for you. It didn’t bother us at al. We enjoyed the apartment and location!

Super accueil à l arrivée. La petite intention du verre de porto à l arrivée est tres sympa. Bons conseils de restaurants et autres. Appartement bien placé, suffisamment loin pour etre au calme et suffisamment près du centre pour tout faire à pieds. Si besoin, n'hésitez pas à utiliser les services du chauffeur pour les transports aéroports/appartement et retour

Sehr schönes App. mit Terrasse und Garten. Küche funktional eingerichtet., Räumlichkeiten angenehmes Design. Idealer Ausgangspunkt zu Ponte Luis , fussläufig 10 Min. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten auch in max. 20 min erreichbar. Leider war in der Küche weder Öl, noch Salz und Pfeffer bzw. Mülltüten. Auch das Toilettenpapier war knapp bemessen. Insgesamt empfehlenswert für einen Aufenthalt in Porto.

Excellent séjour près du Douro et au centre de Porto
Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Simon. L'appartement est magnifique, grand avec jardin et terrasse sans vis à vis. D'autre part, il est très calme et très lumineux. Il est juste à côté du Douro mais également très proche du centre. Une adresse parfaite pour visiter la belle ville de Porto !
