It was easy to get everywhere we wanted to in Porto.

From the time we arrived at the station the hosts were in contact with us, gave us all the information we needed, and responded promptly and helpfully to all our questions. The apartment was exactly as described and met our needs. The location was perfect for walking around Porto, particularly the Ribeira area. Would highly recommend.

The apartment is as advertised. It is a solid location in the Flores district somewhat between Ribiera and downtown so it is fairly easy to get to either. The furnishings and kitchen stock is fairly sparse - we didn't cook in the unit. Big windows let in a lot of light. Bedroom is quiet although the neighborhood clock strikes the hour from 0800 on, but it is not loud. Bathroom works pretty well although only a handheld shower head and the floor is very slippery...an earlier concern...could be fixed in 30 minutes. Bring bath soap/shampoo and all the ingredients for cooking if you plan to cook - not even salt/pepper/oil. Our biggest concern was the mattress. You could feel the springs through the fabric and it was uncomfortable. We slept on the comforter for more cushion and covered up with the sheet. I tried the fold out couch and it really isn't comfortable for an older adult. Unless the mattress is changed, I wouldn't stay here. Also, the maintenance guy came in where we were gone to fix the toilet without our permission.

Location was excellent- close to restaurants, shops, easy walk to riverfront. The layout was odd. Windows were blocked by thick plastic. Not a comfortable place.
