Our host was most gracious, even provided ideas of things to do. The location was perfect, close to everything. The apartment was clean and well maintained and the added bonus of the elevator was perfect after a long day of walking. I could not have been more pleased. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay.

Exceptional: we arrived in Portugal just after the big storms in late January early February and no trains were running between Lisbon and Porto for us to make our connection up to Porto. As a result of the craziness, our time for arriving in Porto was all over the map. Our hostess, Fernanda, was incredibly helpful and communicative as our arrival time kept getting adjusted Fernanda went out of her way to accommodate us. From the start we felt well taken care of; this was comforting as we were three senior couples traveling to Portugal for the first time. Fernanda was very helpful settling us in. The apartment was fantastic; great location in the center of the historic district; fresh and amazing egg tarts steps away from the entrance, grocery stores within half a block, waterfront 5 to 7 minutes walk away; restaurants everywhere and at all levels. Our stay from check-in to check-out was seamless. Very highly recommended. Would return in a minute!Larry from Oakville, Canada

What a lovely apartment. It’s perfect for 4-6 people with very comfortable beds. The kitchen was well equipped, even though we didn’t end up cooking. The location couldn’t be better- restaurants and bars are all within easy walking distance. Marc, the host, was very communicative and made check in simple. I highly recommend this apartment for your stay in Porto.

We couldn’t have been more pleased with the apartment. The apartment has a modern style while still maintaining the historical architecture. Stepping from the modern living area onto the old world classic balcony was like entering a different era. The location was perfect for being within walking distance of so many popular spots. Marc and Fernanda were quick to respond to our questions and requests. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again some day.
