Perfect location

We thoroughly enjoyed our Porto home. When we arrived, Luis kindly met us in town and accompanied us to the apartment. We loved the balcony view. The location was perfect. There was so much to do in the area, all within walking distance.

We couldn’t be happier with our stay. Luis was super easy to deal with and was kind enough to accommodate our exceptionally late (2:00 am) check in. You can’t beat the location!

Luis was so helpful. He met us at the bus station and took us back to his place, giving us a guided tour and lots of info. We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and taking in the wonderful view and watching the world go by.

Amazing stay and host

From the get go Luis was an amazing host. The communication was top tier (we were ready to give five stars before we even stayed there). He also collected us from the train station and helped us find our way to the apartment. The apartment was AMAZING view was incredible and had everything we needed. Thank you for a great stay Luis!

Location!

Live like a local with the best view in Porto. What it lacks in glitz it makes up for in a million euro view and proximity to great restaurants, tourist attractions and shopping. Eight minute walk from Sao Bento and be prepared for the third floor hike. Luis provided excellent communication.

Great Location

Luis is a great host! He was communicating with us long before we arrived and made sure we found the place and provided some great insights to the area. We were able to get the key and drop off our luggage early and go exploring until check in time. It is quite an interesting historical building and the layout was as we expected from the description and reviews. Had all the amenities we expected and just sitting and looking at the view was amazing especially at night. So much to explore close by and short walk to the train station.

Exceptional Host, great location.

Luis is the host with the most! He met us at the train station and walked us to the apartment. He checked in the next day to see if everything was OK. The location is amazing - a view of the water from the little terrace, overlooked the promenade, right in the middle of all the action. Kitchen was well equipped, and a nice bedroom. The building itself is old with a unique layout. You have to walk up several flights of stairs which was ok for us.

Grrat stay with greater view!

If you are looking for a convenient place to visit all that is Porto and Gaia, and you also want an authentic Portugese old time experience, this may work for you. It's clean, and is as shown in pictures. (UNESCO building) Luis is excellent to communicate with and helps you from metro station to the flat. We didn't need alot of space, and we loved watching all the riverfront activities each morning and evening after daytime exploring. Thanks also for all your tips and the map Luis!

Stunning View and Incredible Host

Luis the host hospitality was outstanding! He met us at the train station and escorted us to his place! We we so appreciative of his attention to details and his ability to make us feel welcome. The location is right on the river and the place is clean and well run. The kitchen and bedroom have all the amenities and balcony both on the front as well as the back of the residence. It was private and obviously updated over the years. We highly recommend this place. Would come back again for sure!!

Living in a postcard

Simple accommodation with all the essentials and an epic view of the promenade, the river, the bridge and the major Port wine players across in Vila Nova de Gaia. Mr. Luis is a hands on landlord. He picked us up at the train station and accompanied us to our apartment while informing us about all there is to know about the city of Porto and it’s surroundings. Fantastic experience. Thank you, Luis

Porto on the Duoro River

The location and the balcony in the unit were awesome, but the apartment is on the 4th floor, hard to access, and the clogged or overfilled grease trap in the 1st floor restaurant gives a terrible odor, which cannot be escaped while at this location. The restaurant needs to have this trap pumped and/or cleaned. Despite the bad odor, I would stay at this location again.

Story book

Absolutely loved this place! It was truly amazing! I would absolutely go back! A couple of things that I wasn’t expecting was the kitchen and bath being separated from the room. It was the top floor so nobody ever went up but could feel less than private to some. I loved having the doors open for fresh air but at night could be a little loud. Bathroom is smaller than Americans are used to but I didn’t mind. Luis, the host, was great!! Overall I would definitely stay here again! The view was incredible!!! Best in the city after seeing it all!
