We stayed at this apartment for two nights, and it was perfect. Easily walkable to all of the things in Cascais but also a quiet neighborhood. We highly recommend this apartment.

Beautiful apartment in the perfect location!

We absolutely loved our stay in Porto! The apartment was very clean and modern and is one of my favorite apartments I have stayed in while travelling. Not only was the place nice, but the location was absolutely perfect. There's a wine bar and amazing restaurant right across the street and all of the major sites and attractions are within walking distance. Highly recommend this place to stay!

This Apartment in Porto was absolutely perfect! Firstly, the host is fantastic, great communication, lots of helpful information & super friendly. The location is awesome, you’re right in the middle of the historic district but on a quiet street. The apartment is a combination of modern comfort and historic charm.

Spacious and Great Location

The apartment was is the perfect location for our daytime activities and evening dinners. There was a small grocery within a 5 minute walk. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked, and having access to laundry was wonderful. The listing does state there is a hot tub, but there is not one on site.Ani made check in easy with the key available in a lock box and communication was great. We would definitely stay here again if back in Porto.

Great location and great apartment

We traveled as 3 male friends. There was a double bed and 2 single beds which was perfect. The host left us welcoming port and pastries which was a nice touch. As well as wine we could purchase for 10 per bottle. The location of the apartment was perfect - a short walk from Sao Bento station and all the rest of the old city. Thoroughly recommend this apartment.

Wonderful Stay in Porto

Our host, Ani, was the best. She met us at the apartment and explained every detail of the apartment and gave us great advice on where to go and what to see during our stay. She stayed in contact with us during the week to assure all was going well on our trip. The apartment was also perfect. It was very clean and well stocked. The location was great. We could walk to all the sights and restaurants. Definitely recommend this apartment for anyone visiting Porto.

Ideal old town flat

The flat is well appointed and in a great location for exploring Porto on foot. In addition to the wine bar which is directly outside the front door, we enjoyed the restaurant, Orpheu, which is a stone’s throw away on the same street. You can time your visit by checking the queue from the flat’s excellent balcony. You’ll have to walk a whole additional minute to get to Castro for some outstanding pastel de nata. Ani’s communication and tips were excellent and gratefully received. If I’ve encountered a more helpful host in my lifetime, I can’t remember them!

Apartment in Porto

The apartment was wonderful - very modern and spacious. Ani welcomed us and shared the details of the apartment when we arrived. It was very central to the sites and restaurants of Porto. It is located in a significant hill and up two flights of stairs (no elevator) so it would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend it.

Fantastic Porto stay with the best Host you could ask for

Having stayed in many rentals over the years this exceeded expectations from start to finish. Ani the owner truly treats you like family, and is the most helpful host we have ever had. Very responsive and provided a detailed breakdown of the City which really helped for our short 3 night stay. I would 100 percent rent from her again and recommend the property to friends and family.When I first booked the place many months ago it looked great, but we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived to find it newly remodeled and beautiful on the inside. It was very quiet inside even in a busy area, and had smart design ideas to help make that possible. Not a single complaint it worked great for us and was in a safe and high traffic party of the city with great food and wine only steps away.Ani thanks again for everything you were more of a friend then a host and we appreciate it all!

Just as Described

We stayed at Ani’s apartment a few days in November. Check in was easy with given instructions. Nice, safe, quiet side street with everything you want to do or see in walking distance. Very comfortable home that is exactly as pictured. Ani was quick to respond with any questions or recommendations we had asked. Would definitely stay here again!! Thank you!!!

Ideal apartment in every way

We enjoyed a wonderful few days at Ani's beautiful apartment. Everything was perfect - amazing location handy for walking everywhere, close to the action but calm and quiet on its quaint cobbled street. The property is just like the photos - clean, well-designed and comfortable. Ani was so lovely and went out of her way to welcome us with personal recommendations and advice for activities, sightseeing and dining. We would highly recommend this as a perfect place to experience Porto and would definitely choose to stay here again on our next visit. Thank you Ani for an unforgettable stay!

Very disappointed

Overall good location but because of the high temperatures currently in Porto, the apartment was unbearable. Two fans in constant use barely made a difference - sweating all night is not my idea of comfort. Because of the smoking from adjacent apartments and noise from the street, it was impossible to leave windows open. No ceiling fans either - ridiculous. This unit was priced only 20 less than a 5 star hotel we were able to transfer to which includes a suite, beach access, elevator, A/C, breakfast included, 2 pools, etc. We recommend due diligence before booking this highly overpriced and overrated apartment. We had to vehemently complain to get released early from this booking. Owner finally gave us a partial refund but it was a huge disappointment all around. Owner even wanted more tax paid at the end than was advertised on her website- a complete misrepresentation. If you book this place, good luck trying to use Uber. Street is so narrow most, if not all, drivers will refuse to drive here.
