PATH Bonjardim Apartments

Main room downstairs was great and cool. Location was a 15 min walk to touristy area. Owner was very communicative and helpful. I’d stay again

Top floor didn’t get any air.

* Terrific support from Pedro via WhatsApp - all questions answered promptly * Clean, spacious * Comfortable - slept soundly throughout stay * Wonderful hot shower and kitchen facilities * Would recommend SiloAuto down the street for parking - €35 for 48 hours trouble free parking

* No complaints at all

Nice host, great location, close to metro but also within walking distance to the centre

Host very communicative. 5 mins walk to a metro station, close to city centre. Porto is an unreasonable rip off these days and this property was on a cheaper side relatively. Free parking is possible with a combination of luck and time.

Unfortunately this wasn't a great experience, here's why in my view: 1. The property would benefit from a thorough renovation, particularly the ground-floor bathroom, which feels dated and worn. 2. Furniture is very basic, quite used and cheap and there's not much hint of a design in the flat. 3. It appears to be a relatively inexpensive DIY conversion spread across three floors and sound insulation is on a poor side, although not horrible. 4. The "master" bedroom is located on the ground floor and is dark and on a smaller side, not the most pleasant place to be. 5. The windows in both the master bedroom and the first-floor living room are fitted with old blackout blinds, meaning you have to choose between having no privacy from neighbours across the road or keeping the room very dark. 6. The spiral staircase is extremely narrow and may not be suitable for everyone. 7. I've spotted a cockroach in the ground-floor bathroom during our stay.
