The location was great to walk to all the places we wanted to explore in the historical district of Porto.

The host of the apartment is very helpful and welcoming giving also some information where to eat typical Portuguese plates.

This is a suggestion not a critical point to have a light bulb near bed is very helpful to read a book during the night without disturb the friend in the bed beside

We really enjoyed our stay at Taipas Apartments. The location was excellent and a great base for exploring Porto. The apartment had everything we needed for our week and we were very happy with our stay overall. We would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Porto.

The only thing I would mention is the noise from the apartment above us. There was a child running the full length of the apartment particularly early in the morning from around 6:30/7:00am onwards, and because the floors seem to be quite thin, the sound travelled very clearly. It didn't bother us too much as we are early risers anyway, but for someone hoping for a quiet, relaxing morning or a lie-in, I could imagine it being a little frustrating. This isn't meant as a negative review at all, as we genuinely enjoyed our stay. It's more something we thought would be useful to mention to management. Perhaps the level of soundproofing/noise between apartments could be mentioned in the information for guests, as I imagine it may apply to other rooms as well.

Location was ok

We were there 3 nights and 4 days and they gave us 1 thin bath towel each. Nothing dried in the apt so had to dry off with wet towels every day. For the price, one of the most expensive we had in Portugal, there should have been extra towels of better quality. The apartment is also VERY noisy. Vehicles and trucks on the road are extremely LOUD all night. Don’t expect to fall asleep early. And we could hear every footstep of the person in the apartment above us and every squeak of their bed!
