No Porto

Antonio is the best host we have ever met! He went far and beyond to make our arrival and our stay pleasant, taking care of every little detail (even prepared a light dinner for us and served it with local wine on our arrival!!). As for the apartment, it is exactly like the photos, with all the amenities, in a very lively and beautiful neighbourhood, only a few minutes walk from Sao Bento metro and train station, which made our arrival from the airport and all our day trips around Porto super easy. Moreover, the Cathedral, the old iron bridge and the famous Ribeira district were also only a few minutes walk from the apartment.

Antonio is an excellent host and I could not give a higher rating. Despite our late check-in time, he made it a point to wait up for us and personally greet us. I was especially touched that he had prepared soup and croutons for us. He also showed us where to go, gave us tips and recommendations and checked in via WhatsApp from time to time to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. His hospitality and communication are truly impeccable. His studio apartment is clean, very organised and had everything we absolutely needed, including cooking and cleaning equipment, hairdryer, iron, a wide range of organic teas, and reading material. The location was perfect! Just a couple of minutes walk from Sao Bento train Station and the Porto cathedral. A supermarket and laundromat are only a few steps away. The unit is on the 1st floor so just a short walk up and the stairs are wide. There is no AC but the unit was cool enough with the fan (we travelled in May). Although Rua de Flores is a very vibrant street, the double-glazed windows blocked out any sounds from outside.

The water pressure was a bit low but manageable.

Emplacement idéal pour cet appartement de qualité. Cuisine très fonctionnelle et hôte très sympathique. Vraiment super. Proche de la gare, city market juste à côté, tés bon restaurant juste en dessous (Cozinha dos Lóios), proche rues piétonnes mais sans le bruit.

Rien. super endroit

Location was excellent, right in the heart of the old town. Kitchen was very convenient with very well equipped.

Building entrance and stairway and facilities were too dark. More lighting was needed throughout. Apartment felt dark and dreary and was damp with humidity. Stairway was somewhat dangerous to use due to very low level of lighting.
