We will certainly seek out this property for any future visit to the city of Gaia/Porto. Check-in was smooth, and any questions we had were answered in a timely fashion. Well done to all involved in managing this property.

This was such a cool building that was updated but preserved its original windows and shutters that added such charm. It was within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The twin beds were not the most comfortable, but we still enjoyed our stay here. The bathrooms were updated and clean with hot water.

Lovely space in Vila Nova de Gaia
Plenty of space for 4 adults. Hardest part was coming up the very steep hill from the river district. Very clean and 3wc was the cherry on the top!

Très belle appartement et très bien situé. Appartement est lumineux, propre et bien aménagé. La Clim est appréciable quand il fait beau. Il est dans le quartier de Vila Nova de Gaia, environ à 10 min à pied ( marche tranquille) des quais et idem pour le métro. Nous sommes arrivés tard et le concierge nous attendait : un Mr très sympathique. Nous étions 4 et y avons séjourné 5 nuits. L’appartement possède un convertible dans le salon ce qui permet d’accueillir plus de personnes. Je le recommande : la description et les photos sont conformes !
