8/10 Very good

Appartement tres bien équipé. Pres dun metro etde la rue santa catarina.

Excellent apartment in a very nice location.
Rachel, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was great, centrally located, clean and helpful friendly staff and a very nice roomy apartment. It would have been perfect if the front door to the building locked. We reported it twice and were told it was being fixed but it wasn’t during our 4 days. Apart from that I would definitely recommend for any stay in Porto.
David, 4-night trip

Fit for our stay

We liked our stay there, it´s well equipped and decorated appartment with all we needed in bathroom and kitchen (we didn´t cook). Location is just right to be still relatively quiet, but very close to the city center. Also communication with the host was seemless, just the indication of the accomodation location on the street could be a bit more obvious.

C’est un bel emplacement, l’appartement est propre et bien insonorisé.

Hotel is at a very convenient location, short walk to Ponte Luís I Bridge, Porto Cathedral, Livraria Lello, São Bento Station and Igreja do Carmo. Easy check in and check out process, very friendly staff. Room is very clean and new inside.
Mei, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Location is so good. Pretty easy to access main shopping street, restaurants and cafes. Though sometimes there is some noise because the location is too close with the road, it is still satisfying place to visit

Wonderful stay, comfy bed & clean. We arrived after a very LONG day of travel and my daughter was not feeling well. When we arrived the host was able to get us quickly to our room, which was much appreciated! I would recommend.

Incredible unit in a very walkable part of town with everything we could have wanted. The space was beautiful, with a large and comfortable kitchen/ living area and full bath downstairs and two nice bedrooms upstairs (one ensuite). An amazing value and would stay again.

Luke, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Cannot say enough good things about this property in Porto. Anabela was incredibly accommodating and the check in process was easy. There are a few different ways to get to the location (uber, taxi), but we got off at the nearby Bolhão metro station after taking the train in from Lisbon. It's a bit of a hike up the stairs with luggage so be ready but so is every accommodation in Portugal. The place was lovely with nice touches like body wash available, wifi, and good air conditioning. Sleep was easy and the area is super accessible and walkable. Would recommend to anyone.
Emily, 2-night trip

Very nice room in a great location. Stuff is friendly
Peter, 1-night trip

Having the balcony & green space /garden view was a very nice amenity. We could have, but didn’t use the garden because we were so busy touring beautiful Porto. Very convenient and quiet given the urban environment.
