It was a very nice property in an excellent location. It was very easy to walk around Porto. This was my first VRBO experience, so the steps to take to pay for the VRBO were a little confusing to me.
Great location. Lots of space for 1 couple and 2 singles. Easy walking to most sights, market, restaurants. Communication with mgmt company was very good. Stairs up a few flights might deter a few renters. We would stay again.

Dear Colleen, thank you so much for your review and your notes about the communication with our team and the location of our apartment. We truly appreciate your stay.
Incredible location, everything within walking distance. Place was very clean. The house was very spacious for the 5 of us. Kitchen had everything you needed for staying here. Grocery store very close. Host was very responsive and quick to respond to all my questions. Would highly recommend and stay here when I return with friends and family.

A constant bad smell coming from a bathroom is more than just unpleasant — it’s a sign that something in the plumbing, ventilation, or drainage system isn’t working the way it should. There was no hot water in sink in one of the bathroom.In another bathroom door can not be locked from inside and shower door was broken.We paid for cleaning but still asked to collect recycle bins and leave outside of building that is not acceptable.

Dear Kashyap, we believe that an autonomous management of recycle garbage is a matter of respect for the city and the environment. The cleaning fee refers to the preparation of the apartment and it really is justified, specially when someone leaves behind a significant volume of trash. We have checked the apartment about the smell that you refer and nothing was found. The hot water functions perfectly. We hope that you have a better experience next time.
Great to stay at wonderful hotel with very helpful staff
Stayed five days in one of the big family rooms. Gave us great space. Good location – three blocks from the ocean and many attractions. It is very very hilly in Lisbon and this is located on the side of a hill. Also, it’s in an historic district and only special taxis are allowed to drive there. To get a new Uber or any other mood of transportation, you simply have to walk two blocks down the hill.

Thank you, Debbie, for your kind review!
We’re delighted that you had a positive experience — though we suspect this lovely feedback may have been intended for another property, as our apartment is located in Porto, near the historic Mercado do Bolhão. While we’re not close to the ocean or located on a hill, we’re proud to offer spacious and well-equipped accommodations in the heart of the city.
Wishing you all the best in your travels,
Nomad City Flats
This is an excellent location...just around the corner is Porto's main shopping district -- Santa Catarina street. It's loaded with beautiful shops and historic buildings. A must see in Porto. Regarding the apartment, I especially appreciated the fact it had 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. That's hard to find in Porto. It also had a spacious kitchen so we could have breakfast in the apartment, rather than going out. Since we were in Portugal for a long time, we needed to wash clothes and this apartment has a combo washer/dryer just off the kitchen which was helpful. I must say it was not easy for me to figure out how to use it because I don't speak Portuguese..but eventually I figured it out and got the job done. Be warned...a combo washer/dryer takes much more time than you expect. Just plan for it. Unfortunately there was an extremely heavy rain while we were there and the ceiling in the living room leaked. We mopped it up and called the property manager who sent people right away to take care of the issue. They offered us the apartment above but we declined because we just had one night left. There were no more leaks during our stay. The management was very responsive during this time. Overall, this is an affordable stay in Porto and I'll consider staying again.

Thank you very much for your review Françoise and for your choice of one of our apartments. We would love to welcome you again on another opportunity soon!
Excellent séjour. Appartement très bien situé donc transport inutile pour visiter. Avions contacté un guide français pour flâner dans le centre historique, très jolie ville. Avons toujours eu de très bons contacts (restaurants visites locales). Appartement très spacieux. Excellent contact avec l’agence très agréable et sérieuse.
