This top floor apartment is spotless with everything we needed for a week's stay in Porto. We were lucky that the weather first week of Feb was 20 degrees and sunny for all but the last day.
Communication with owner was always prompt and helpful. Some much needed things this apartment provides that deserve mentioning:
Self check in which we prefer with coded door entry, soundproofed windows. (Do not underestimate soundproofing in the old part of Porto) there were roadworks nearby and we were not bothered by them once. But it can be a noisy city anyway.
And the elevator was a welcome break for tired feet.
The apartment is a short walk from São Bento metro and even shorter walk to the beautiful river front of Ribiera square which was safe and friendly and loads of top class eateries. In fact the whole city of Porto is safe and friendly.
Bed very comfy.
There is also a handy grocery and wine shop next door although it is randomly closed at weekends. 5 star stay overall.

The apartment was far nicer and bigger than we expected. Even though we liked the photo's, it was even nicer in real life. There were 4 of us sharing, and we did not feel we were living on top of each other. It was immaculately clean, had everything we needed and was close to all the sites we wanted to explore.
Communication was excellent, and we had a nice warm welcome from Dani. All the service we had in Porto was friendly and welcoming. We booked an early transfer back to the airport via the team. The taxi was again, immaculate and the driver fab & friendly.
Couldn't not fault a thing. Thank you everyone. Highly recommended.

Great location and nice apartment.
This apartment is in an excellent location for seeing historical Porto.
It is quite comfortable apartment, nicely renovated. Bed is comfortable, shower has good supply of hot water. Kitchen is nice.
Check in was easy, Leo met us and explained everything to us. Person in charge, Eva, answered all my questions, checked on us during our stay. We stayed a week so she arranged for clean towels to be sent over half way through.
Elevator works, apartment is on sixth floor. Though in popular area, the place is quiet. Four people can stay there comfortably.

We were greeted by Daniela. Before we arrived and during our stay, Eva provided all information needed for a great trip. They even arranged for the airport transportation.
This is the best spot you can get in Porto. We are fully satisfied with the place and service provided.
Excellent customer service ! Porto is a very nice place to visit in Portugal.

Ótima estadia em Porto
A hospedagem foi ótima. Fomos muito bem recebidos pela Daniela. O apartamento atende muito bem uma família com quatro pessoas. A localização é ótima. Próxima aos principais pontos da cidade. O prédio é antigo, mas o apartamento é muito confortável, aconchegante, limpo, além da disponibilidade dos itens necessários para uma boa estadia. Ficamos muito satisfeitos.

Muito bom
Apartamento muito bem localizado, bem organizado, limpo e amplo, hostess muito educada e simpática, passa varias dicas boas. O único problema é que a água quente em banhos seguidos, da apenas para uma pessoa, tem que ter um intervalo de tempo grande entre as pessoas. E falta um aquecimento.
