Comfortable, amazing location, friendly and helpful host

Pros: The location was absolutely amazing! As a group of 4 friends we loved having 2 double beds in the same room as most of the accommodation I found was one bed and one sofa bed. The host was extremely responsive and helpful and even arranged an early check in for us which was perfect.

Cons: The only things I would add would be a lamp in the bedroom and a long mirror, this would make the facilities perfect!

Great location for visiting Porto, comfortable, clean and value for money

Pros: Great Location Comfortable apartment Value for money Good directions to and from station/airport and good communication with host

Cons: Nothing we didn’t like but…. Could do with a coat stand or hooks in entrance for coats and hooks behind bathroom door for wet towels. Plug sockets in wrong places!

Good location for exploring Porto

Pros: The location is brilliant for exploring Porto and very easy to get to from the airport, the bus stops minutes away. Apartment was comfortable, clean, good shower, facilities for tea,coffee and more.

Cons: There wasn't anything that we didn't like We had the Duplex Deluxe that didn't have windows facing the street and does involve a metal staircase to get to . We didn't have any mobility issues , but if you do ask before booking . Communication with the owner is very good and I am sure all details will be provided .

Pros: Great location. A well appointed clean apartment. Perfect for two people. Would definitely stay here again.
