Excellent location. Very good apartment. Very little noise from outside, because it is not by a car road. Normal living noises from neighbours can be heard. Nothing to complain about.

Great location in Ribeira, near the river and walking distance to all the sights, but relatively quiet on a small side street. The windows are modern and quite sound proof.The apartment is typically small, but very clean and well suited for a single or a couple. Nice modern design.On the fourth floor, but with an elevator (slow), which also helps with the street noise.Guests with mobility issues should be aware that access to the apartment is by walking up (or down) a fairly steep cobbled street (which is also true for much of the old center of Porto).Highly recommended.

Fantastic location

We loved the studio apartment. It had everything we needed for our stay. The location was great! It was close to many shops and restaurants and only about 5 minutes to the water. We had a beautiful view.

Perfect 3rd floor apartment for two people. Small, quiet, clean, comfortable, great location. Old building but newly renovated. Hot in the summer (no A/C) but fan and light breeze with windows open was nice at night. Easy self check-in/out. Highly recommend!

Amazing location near river and sights! Property just as pictured. Comfortable bed (full/double), amazing water pressure in shower, minimal staples, working washing machine. Never did find the free parking but the road parallel to alley does not charge after 7 pm and Sunday so worked for us.

Week in Porto

Very good stay, apartment was clean and in a great location, close to all the sites, lots of dining options within a 5 -10 min walk.. the only complaint i have is that the elevator didnt work, amd the apartment is on the 3rd floor. Not a huge deal for us, we walked the whole city!

Great spot to visit sights!

Very convenient to see historical sights. Do NOT turn into the street the apartment is on, but continue along main road to paid parking . People got stuck on the narrow road. Parking needs to be made more clear for guests- perhaps a simple map? Otherwise a clean and well maintained apartment near many amenities.down the syreet

Great studio apt in heart of Porto

Newly renovated studio apartment in Ribeiro section of Porto. On the 3rd floor (fourth for Americans) with elevator (was out of order when we arrived but was fixed by second day of our stay). Owner was very responsive and helpful. Apt. Was clean and all we needed. Wifi & smart TV, coffee maker, fridge, & kitchenette. Would recommend this place!

Great position

We had chosen this studio flat as it was near the river and in the historical area. We were very pleased with the location as we were only 5 minutes from the river and Luis bridge. We had not realised how hilly Porto was and found all we needed by the river as well as booking a couple of tours.There were many small and larger restaurants close by and a couple of small food shops. The larger supermarket was just over a mile away.Accommodation was well equipped for self catering and comfortable. Only slight concern was the bed sheets. The ‘fitted sheet’ was for a larger bed so kept coming loose! Also we didn’t find the tea towels until the day before we left.We very much enjoyed our stay but think Porto will suit younger people the most (we are in our early 70s and not as fit as we were)

Modern Apartment in Ancient Building

Surgical suite clean and very attractive, but furnished in a vary spartan way. Kitchen could have been suppplied a little better - drinking glasses, etc. Listing said there was a soaking tub of some kind but not to be found. Texted host but she didn’t respond. In fairness I think she has family issues out of town and was preoccupied. Very nice elevator but really slow and acted kind of squirrelly the last couple of days. Great bathroom but could use some shelf space. Best of all? The location is spectacular and has groceries, liquor, and several good restaurants within a block. Can see part of Luis 1 bridge from the room. About 8 min walk to Metro. Perfect? No. Thumbs up? Yes.
