Location is great and the cleanliness was very good. The apartment is noisy at night, if you have the windows open, but very quiet with them closed. Unfortunately, the air conditioning unit wasn’t working during our stay, so we did need to have the windows open to make the apartment cool enough to sleep.

Location great, noisy but I didn't mind that. The apartment didn't meet my expectations as the bedding could have been better. It wasnt as nice as in the pictures.There were extra pillows but no pillow cases and there was a damp smell. It is a nice size apartment but is let down by how small the bathroom is. Overall could be alot better if maintained and the smell of damp addressed. The location was the best part as so close to the river which was great.

Apartment is great in a great location, 30 seconds from the river. For the price there is nothing to fault really in terms of the actual apartment. Kitchen really good but didn’t use any of it, including complimentary tea and coffee. Decent shower. Bedrooms big and beds Ok, but both overlooked the street. (No windows in rest of apartment). So, it was really noisy too early in morning. The windows and shutters just didn’t block out the noise. This is the only reason I wouldn’t go back, I’d find somewhere a bit quieter even at the expense of being a bit away from the centre.

The apartment it self is decent. It has a nice layout. The sofa is kinda gross and needs to be replaced. The shower only stays hot long enough for one person to shower. But the REAL issue is the noise. They have these sound barrier window features but it doesn't help. It's constant sirens and road noise. I think this location is ideal for people in their 20's who want to party at the main river strip all night and then come back and pass out. It is so close to that area and you probably wouldn't notice the noise as much. It is also on top of a PUB. We came out one morning to two older men arguing with each other and blocking the exit door. It scared my children.

Thank you, Michelle, for sharing your thoughts about your recent stay. We're glad you appreciated the apartment's layout, but we sincerely apologize for the discomfort you faced with the sofa and shower. Please rest assured that the sofa replacement is being arranged, and our maintenance team will check the water heater to ensure it provides consistent hot water for all guests. We strive to offer a comfortable experience and are sorry for the noise disturbance. Your feedback regarding the soundproofing and pub proximity is valuable, and we are working on methods to enhance sound insulation. Thank you for helping us improve our guest experience.

The place in Porto was beautiful! The instructions to enter were adequate but for those of us who are challenged translating the printed word into actions, I felt they might have been more explicit. Anyway, after some kind building resident’s help we found our way to the place and absolutely loved the layout. The adjoining balconies overlooking the street were ideal and our favorite spot! The designs and items were unique and creative. On the less positive side, there were no tables (waist height) to open the bags or lay clothes….the choices were nearly always floor-level. The supplies provided were non-existent or weak: for instance there were no coffee-pods for the coffeemaker, two little soaps in the one bathroom, with no soap holder, and two rolls of toilet tissues which we almost exhausted in the 4 days there. Those are minor things, but hopefully help you in future planning. The things that were slightly more concerning were:1. The one A/C/Heat unit near the entrance totally didn’t work. In fact, it was turned off at the breaker box when we arrived on a warm afternoon and needed some cooling. The remote control was inoperative, and that is the only way to adjust the unit.2. The latch on the bathroom door was inoperative. To get the bathroom door to remain closed, one needed to physically pull the handle back up after entering. While this is a minor inconvenience, and a small annoyance, I could tell more, but you have limited to 1500 characters. Couldn't send photos

Check in to the property is terrible. We have to walk half a mile to get the key for the lock box. I don't understand why they don't have the key lock box at the property like the others. The apartment is nice but missing some of the basic. First, they only gave us 1 set of keys for two couple. In the second bedroom they have nothing to put your clothing Not even a table and they have plenty of room to put at least a dresser. They have no dishwasher which is ok but don't provide anything to hand dry the dishes. We were 4 people staying in the apartment. They only have 4 glasses, 4 cups ect...which is ridiculous. They have no instruction manual. To get out of the building they have the main lobby door and 4 glass doors to get out. We had to figure out which key and which door to unlock which is very cumbersome as it is at the bottle of the door which is hard to reach. One couple got stuck for 30 minutes and they couldn't figure out how to unlock the door until we got there. The management company is terrible very slow to our response, and we had to wait at least 30 minutes on the phone before we can get someone to answer. Its unfortunate, the apartment is nice with great location but giving how poor is the communication I will not be staying there again

Die Lage der Unterkunft war für einen Städtetrip perfekt. Alles super zu Fuß erreichbar. Es gibt im Gebäude auch einen Lift. Leider liegt die Unterkunft aber an einer Tag und Nacht viel befahrenen Straße und dadurch ist es sehr laut, auch bei geschlossenen Fenstern. Also unbedingt Ohropax mitnehmen! Wir haben sonst sehr wohlgefühlt! Für nicht lärmempfindliche Personen ist das Apartment sehr zu empfehlen.

Das Gute vorweg: die Wohnung hat eine schöne Lage. Die Ausstattung ist einfach. 4 Betten und zwei Weingläser ist halt etwas wenig. Aber jetzt zum Kern des Problems: Wir hatten die Wohnungsübergabe um 15:00 Uhr und um 15:00 Uhr sollten auch die Koffer geliefert werden. Umständlicher Weise mussten wir den Schlüssel an einer Reception abholen (5 Minuten entfernt) . Dazu benötigt man ein Zahlenschloss, um hineinzukommen und den Schlüssel in eine Box zu entnehmen. Wir waren schon etwas früher circa 20 Minuten, aber der Schlüssel war nicht in der Box. Die Dame mit den pinken Haaren sagte uns, dass sie uns den Schlüssel erst um 15:00 Uhr übergeben kann. Auf die Bitte, dass unsere beiden Kinder mal auf Toilette gehen können, da wir ja eine längere Anreise hatten, sagte sie, dass das nur für das Personal möglich ist. So warteten wir 20 Minuten mit der Dame zusammen im Büro, bis sie den Schlüssel aus dem Schreibtisch in den Schlüsselkasten hing (Sie hatte ihn die ganze Zeit) und dann sagte, jetzt können wir den Schlüssel rausnehmen. Zwischenzeitig mussten wir den Fahrer mit den Koffern mehrfach vertrösten. So waren die Kinder total genervt, da sie nicht auf Toilette konnten. Der Fahrer mit den Koffern war total genervt, dass wir nicht da waren und die Dame mit den pinken Haaren hatte den Schlüssel in der Schublade. Vielen Dank für nichts.

Hallo Melanie, Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihre Erfahrungen mit uns zu teilen. Es tut mir leid zu hören, dass die Schlüsselübergabe nicht reibungslos ablief und dies Unannehmlichkeiten für Sie und Ihre Familie verursachte. Ich verstehe, wie frustrierend das gewesen sein muss, besonders nach einer langen Anreise mit Kindern. Ich werde sicherstellen, dass wir solche Vorfälle in Zukunft vermeiden, und bereits daran arbeiten, den Ablauf bei der Schlüsselübergabe zu verbessern. Ich nehme auch Ihre Anmerkung zu der Anzahl der Weingläser zur Kenntnis und werde mich darum kümmern, die Ausstattung entsprechend zu überprüfen und anzupassen. Ich hoffe, dass die ansonsten schöne Lage der Wohnung Ihren Aufenthalt dennoch etwas angenehmer gemacht hat. Ihr Feedback ist für uns sehr wertvoll, und ich hoffe, dass wir die Gelegenheit haben, Sie in Zukunft noch besser zu unterstützen. GuestReady Team

challenges

listing was accurate but we had issues with electricity. whenever we plugged in the provided heaters, the fuse would blow. the first time, we didn't know the fuse box was outside the apartment in the hall. it kept happening. the parquetry floor in one bedroom had lifted so you couldn't walk on it without hurting yourself. not sure how the cleanter missed that (about 6 square feet of it). we were given a small credit to the charge which helped some but it was disappointing.
