Reviews

Sebastian 10/10

Poland 🇵🇱

Pros: Perfect for a short stay and for a couple.. Amazing view, really cosy, clean, very good contact with a host. The location is close to the main attractions, but the building is on the quiet street so you can sleep calmly 🙂

Beautiful apartment in an ideal location

Pros: The apartment is fully equipped and located in a very quiet building. The mattresses were, for us, very firm and not saggy. The view is spectacular. Francisco always asked how we were doing and helped when we had questions. Since the apartment is in the mountainous old town, the 75 steps to the 4th floor were no longer a challenge. You can have breakfast nearby and also enjoy the sunset just around the corner.

Cons: We were happy with everything.

Great place to stay for a city trip in the old side of town with awesome views

Pros: Location was awesome. Appartment was on the 4th floor with a breathtaking view over the city. The host Francisco welcomed us at check in with a nice glass of port, gave us tips what to see or do in the city.

Great place to stay!

Pros: Excellent location with amazing views across the river. Great facilities, felt like we were living like locals. Despite being in the old city, it was remarkably quiet. Host Francisco was there to meet us, as arranged, and was excellent with communication throughout our stay.

Cons: There are several flights of steps up to the apartment, and no lift. However, you don't get fabulous views being on the ground floor!

The place to be!

Pros: The host was great and very helpful. The apartment is extremely great and clean. All wonderful and I would higly recommend it. The area is great, great tips for restaurants, too. THANK YOU!

Cons: That the toilet is basically IN the bedroom and that the light at night wakes one up + the windows get noisy when it's windy. But these are just minor things.

Porto has everything for a quick city break - 10/10

Pros: The apartment has modern amenities and is located just 6 minutes from the hustle and bustle of the restaurants and bars on Douro River. The views are surreal - from the apartment you can see the Casa da Rua de Sao Miguel church as well as the Luís I Bridge and Douro River. Our host Joana was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the city.

Great location, great communications with owner and Joana who greeted and met us.

Pros: Tasteful and considerate decor considering the age of the property. Great facilities and well equipped. One slight caveat is be prepared for 4 flights of stairs to the apartment but not a problem considering how hilly Porto is anyway.

Cons: All good nothing negative.

Excellent hosts, who personally greeted us, and showed us the facilities of the apartment.
