Fantastic Location, Beautiful Apartment! We had such a fantastic week in Porto. Excellent communication with the host. The apartment could bot have been more beautiful! Fair warning this flat is on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator in the building but in all honesty it was totally fine! If you have mobility issues it would be an issue but in reality if you have mobility issues Porto is not the city you want to visit, it is hills upon hills! The furniture and beds were all very comfortable and the kitchen is equipped with everything you need to feel at home on your vacation. Lots of grocery stores nearby. The biggest and best grocery store is the Continent in the bottom floor of the indoor shopping mall the next block over. The apartment gets a fantastic breeze so it wasnt an issue cooling off after a long day of sightseeing. Highly recommend booking this apartment for your next stay in Porto! It was a home away from home!

Thank you for the great review and for highlighting the location, comfortable beds, and well‑equipped kitchen. Glad the apartment’s breeze and nearby grocery options made your stay easy. Appreciate the note about the third‑floor stairs — that will help future guests. We’d be happy to host you again on your next Porto trip.
