Very clean and spacious. Good location not too far from the Cerigo church/tower. We took advantage of the 15% discount to have a great breakfast at Balta Brunch.
We used the washing machine to do a quick load of laundry.

Fantastic location right in the heart of porto. Most of Porto's sights and attractions are within a short walking distance. Cafes, restaurants and shops are right next door if needed. Very clean and comfortable. Great place to stay, especially for the price.
Other than a lack of an iron, I can't complain.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2025
Compact but convenient apartment with everything you need, and in an excellent location. While breakfast was not included, the associated Cafe Balta was 15% off, and served amazing breakfast!! Balthazar (cafe owner, I believe) managed the apartments also, and was super kind and helpful with anything we needed regarding our stay, including luggage storage and pre-packed breakfasts delivered for early for sight-seeing days. Would stay there again!
Because of the convenient location near bars and restaurants, there was a bit of noise some nights. (We solved this by turning on the bathroom fan and leaving that door open for “white noise.”) The linens were a little bit “tired” looking, but Balthazar gave us extra, and said that he is working with new management to upgrade. (We still wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.)

Excellent location; great restaurants nearby; straightforward check-in
Overall, we were disappointed with our stay. The photos and description did not match the unit we were given, which set expectations much higher than what we arrived to. The furniture was different from what was shown and in worse condition. The sofa was too small for two people to sit comfortably, and the fridge barely cooled beyond room temperature. The bathroom also looked much cleaner and more modern in the listing than it did in reality.
The apartment was advertised as bright and sunny with great views, but our unit faced storefronts with almost no view. The bedroom window opened into a very narrow gap between buildings. About two feet away was a large brick wall from the neighboring building. While it was possible to see a bit of sky when looking up, below the window was a dark, unfinished space between the buildings, which made the room feel dim and contributed to a musty smell.
The bed was also extremely uncomfortable. The mattress was very hard, and the pillows offered little support, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep.
Heating was also an issue. The only heat source was an AC unit in the bedroom, so the bedroom became very warm while the kitchen and living area stayed cool to cold. The TV could not be used because there was no remote. We did not spend much time in the apartment, but it would have been nice to play music while getting ready for New Year’s or during late nights while adjusting to the time difference. Baltasar did bring a remote, but it did not work, and after I let him know, he stopped responding.
Access to the apartment made us uncomfortable. There was only one key, and the door required a key to unlock from the inside. This meant that if one of us left with the key, the other was essentially locked inside without a way to exit, which did not feel safe.
The shower was hot after adjusting the water heater as instructed, but there was only enough hot water for one person at a time.
