Short Stay in Porto

We really loved this small apartment, a bit tricky to find but worth it. The place is clean and very well equipped with a full kitchen. Location can’t be beat and the views are awesome.

excellent location

aged furniture - pictures were deceiving, noisy neighborhood, unit was not clean, fingerprints on doors and windows, floors were not cleaned well. Small bathroom, but perfect location.

Dream location

Wonderful property. We felt lucky to break away from the crowds into this historic building with a beautiful and very clean apartment. The location is A+. Literally on the Ribeira with an incredible view of the river and Gaia. A little tricky to find at first (look for the restaurant called Bacalhau, which is right next door to the apartment building. Google has an area called Muro dos Bacalhoeiros but that brings you to a different street) but then easy. Despite being in the center of the action, the apartment is very quiet and peaceful. The only issue is if you have a car and luggage. There is a very convenient parking garage right near Bolsa (3 mins walk) but they only have hourly rates (no daily max rate) so around 50€/day. There are other much more reasonable parking lots (10-15 min walk) which may be easier without kids and luggage. Communication and instructions from the host were easy and complete. Pictures accurate. We would return in a heartbeat.

Great, quiet location with great views of the river

This property is right on the water with excellent views of the activity on the Duoro River -- and its extremely quiet, despite its proximity to all the tourist nearby. You can easily walk to anything from here. For example, we were on the other side of the river and walked back in a snap. 10/10 would stay here again. There's a public parking garage very close by -- not cheap even by American standards, but it's very convenient to the property. We didn't get the actual location's address or access details until 30 minutes before check in. Evidently, the company was still getting it cleaned. It took some calls to find out what was happening. But it worked out right in time for the 4pm check in.
