Precious Gem Away From Tourists
We were delighted with our stay here. The lovely Irene checked us in and provided a lot of great insights to Porto. The apartment was very good four our group of 2 couples. The ground floor access and the spacious terrace enabled us to feel at home very quickly. An easy walk to the train and the shops. We can recommend the beautiful cakes and tarts at Cafe Nandinha. We loved to experience how typical Porto folk go about their daily lives in this authentic location. Book it.

Five star plus!
This apartment is beautifully decorated, and you’ll find all that you need waiting for you, with a well stocked kitchen, plenty of tourist information, and Irene is so very helpful, a delightful hostess! We also enjoyed the location, eith several nice restaurants and a full sized grocery store to choose from in a 5-10 minute walk from the front door. Oh, and the outdoor space is wonderful to have, we enjoyed sitting outside and enjoying all the beautiful plants, and a large table with an umbrella if you want shade. Thanks again Irene, hope to stay with you again in the future. Cheryl B.

Great spot out of busy streets but still close to everything
Nice little spot, terrace was great for the kids, used the metro to get to tourist places, nice little market & cafe on same street. Place felt secure & safe. Host was helpful for check in to direct us to some places. Crib is good for young babies who can’t stand yet- too high up & dangerous for babies who can stand up-potentially fall out.

Porto apartment
The apartment is in a nice neighborhood and walkable to bus, train, grocery, coffee shops, and restaurants. It is advertised as a “luxurious townhouse,” but as American travelers we rate it it as good.

Great place
Apartment conveniently located only 2 km from central historical part, easy to walk to or metro station just few minutes away. Very clean and quite on residential street., we didn’t even have problems finding parking, which was a big plus. They have a nice sized patio which we weren’t able to use due to the weather but would definitely take advantage in off rain season

Wonderful Location in Porto
Everything about this apartment was excellent. It was located in a quiet area but close to the downtown core. It was appointed with all necessary amenities and was wonderfully decorated. Amaro and Irene were great throughout the process and provided detailed information of the area with wonderful recommendations. We would highly recommend this apartment to anyone wanting a spacious and quiet place to call home while in Porto.
