Linda vista!!!

Apartamento super confortável, com toda a estrutura para crianças pequenas e com uma vista maravilhosa! Mercado, farmácia, padaria e metro bem pertinho! Único porém é a rua estreia para estacionar carros. No mais, apartamento de fácil acesso e o Miguel é uma pessoa super simpática e atenciosa. Adoramos e voltaremos! Super recomendado!

Vue imprenable sur le douro et la vieille ville à 10 min à pied de celle-ci

Magnifique séjour à Porto avec cet appartement bien équipé et propre et sa vue dont on ne se lasse pas sur le douro et la vieille ville tout en étant à une 10aine de minutes à pied de ceux ci. Miguel, le propriétaire, est très accueillant, disponible et "réglo". L'appartement est à proximité du métro aérien et du funiculaire (qui ne fonctionnent pas la nuit) dans un quartier calme. Nous avons passé d'excellentes vacances de Pâques en famille.

amazing place

We loved the apartment, location, and Miguel's service. The views were spectacular, the apartment was kid friendly in which he provided us two cribs and a bath tub for our little ones. It's walking distance to the metro lines, grocery store, and the restaurants overlooking the water. It's a great location and very nice apartment! We enjoyed our stay in Porto!
