Our stay at youropo in Villa Nova de Gaia was wonderful! We arrived early in the morning from our train and the room was being prepared so the staff there let us leave our luggage in the apartment instead of moving it to a locker which was very convinient. The apartment was clean, cozy and the view of Porto from there is absolutely gorgeous. The staff was helpful every step of the way and were always easy to reach. We will definitely book this place again in the future.

The suite was well layed out and came complete with a small kitchenette. Very walkable from our location. The staff were amazing. I had questions before we even started our vacation and they were quick to respond. Upon arrival, they were extremely helpful in trying to make our vacation a memorable experience. The only concern would be the first flight of stairs that had to be climbed before reaching the elevator. If stairs are an issue then this could be game changing. We didn’t give it a second thought. All the positives out weighed this one negative. We highly recommend this location. It should be noted that they have a few other properties in the area.
