Awesome
Gestrent was helpful and responsive. The apartment was modern and clean. The location was fantastic and central, yet quiet. The second bedroom was small with bed right up against the wall so not good for adult couple but fine for one adult or children. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great Pre-Christmas Family Week
The apartment is exactly what the pictures shown. The location is supreme, great restaurants at walking distance, close to mayor historical sites, convenience stores and the river. A great view and in a vibrant street. At the moment of our stay a subway construction was happening just in front and sometimes there was a smell of sewer in the main lobby and main bathroom. That goes away by having the exhaust in the bathroom on. Owner took care of this immediately. Linens could be of better quality. Marc the owner was responsive and fast.

Great experience, not perfect
Facility and location were great however...my wife and I both noticed an odd smell in the unit. We complained and the assistant was very polite and responsive to helping us. We later concluded that the duvet cover was washed but not adequately dried before our arrival. This resulted in a stale musty odor in our bedroom. We switched to a spare blanket rather than the duvet and it got better. Otherwise, the place was great!

Amazing stay
This place was exactly as showed in the pictures. Beautiful inside and fantastic location. You are within an easy walking distance of pretty much everything in Porto. The people were amazing to deal with and very accommodating. The beds are comfortable and everything worked as it should. I have no complaints at all and highly recommend this as a place to stay!!

Great apartment in good location
We stayed 4 nights in Porto and this apartment was perfect for is. Important thins for me were strong hot water, air conditioning, clean and an elevator if up floors. This has all of those things. We were on the 4th floor and the elevator only goes to 3rd floor unless you are in the penthouse. That was a little confusing at first. Great views.from the balcony.

Appréciation mitigée
Idéalement situé et accessible à pied. Stationnement intérieur disponible à proximité. Petite épicerie complète à quelques mètres, avec grande sélection de vins! Ascenseur menant au 3e étage; vaste espace de vie; grand balcon offrant une vue imprenable! Climatisation dans toutes les pièces; décor moderne, parfait pour accueillir jusqu’à 4 personnes. Excellent choix pour séjour de 2 nuits MAX! L’appartement ne peut pas accueillir 6 personnes, il n’y a que 2 chambres (le canapé n’est pas convertible); nombre de serviettes de bain insuffisant pour séjour dépassant 2 jours, des frais supplémentaires s’appliquent; aucune laveuse; les linges à vaisselle et serviettes de bain avaient une odeur désagréable… imaginez après deux jours! Quantité de vaisselle et d’ustensiles limitée; les lits ne sont équipés que du drap contour et d’une couette, sans draps supplémentaires! Papier toilette en quantité insuffisante, nous avons dû en acheter davantage. Un seul jeu de clés fourni pour accéder au bâtiment et au logement...Les taies d’oreiller semblaient sales et visiblement non lavées ou remplacées... Quant à la couette ! Peu d’espace de rangement pour vêtements. Grand lit composé de 2 lits accolés avec creux au milieu. Le propriétaire répond rapidement avant la transaction monétaire et le versement cash des taxes à votre arrivée, mais une fois cela passé, préparez-vous : vos questions ou réclamations risquent de rester sans réponse.

Fantastic Stay in the Heart of Porto
We had a wonderful time staying at this VRBO in the center of Porto. The place was very clean.The location is perfect, right next to some of the best restaurants and activities in the city. Every morning, we enjoyed breakfast on the balcony, taking in the stunning views of the old city. Things to note: if you need parking, you’ll have to walk a few blocks to find something at a reasonable price (around $30 USD per day). But that’s expected when you’re staying in the heart of a bustling city. Also, the elevators go only to the 3rd floor therefore, you must climb steps from the 3rd to the 4th floor where the condo is located. But, this did not really put a damp on our stay. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely rent this place again! Highly recommend it for anyone looking to stay in the center of Porto.

Emplacement idéal au coeur de Porto!
Super apart, grand, moderne, très bien situé près de tout avec belle vue. On a eu un problème de fourmis dans le lit après une nuit. Ils ont réglé le problème immédiatement, on ne sait pas si c’était là avant notre arrivée. Malheureusement le proprio n’a pas répondu à notre demande de dédommagement.

Muy buena ubicacion
Espacioso y muy cómodo para visitar Oporto. Aunque la calle es muy transitada tiene buenas ventanas. Hablo de lo que hecho en falta y por lo que no lo valoro con 5 estrellas, pero eso no quiere decir que el apartamento sea malo, pero me habría gustado que alguien me lo hubiera dicho. Las camas no son muy cómodas, va muy justo de menaje de cocina y productos y utensilios de cocina y limpieza, no hay lavadora y solo dejan una toalla por inquilino para toda una semana.

Perfect location
This apartment is in a perfect location to explore Porto. Restaurants and shops are right out the front door. Great views from the balcony. We stayed with our two children and there was plenty of space. The owner was very responsive to an issue we had the first day and always responded promptly to messages.

Lovely flat in perfect location
This flat was in an incredible location.... right in the middle of all the key sites and five minutes from Sao Bento station (super convenient for day trips to Aveiro and Guimareas). AC was much appreciated after hot days and the flat was spacious and nicely decorated. Views from the balcony were incredible! Highly recommend.
