Location was great for me and my daughter as 2 bedrooms and bathrooms. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony watching the view. Balcony was good size for 2 people. Apartment was clean . Had everything we needed. We did find walk to and from shops, restaurant, activities very steep to walk - luckily we are able . Would be tricky for anyone with mobility issues.

Amazing View
First off, this apartment has the most amazing view. No need to go to Jardim do Moro for the sunset, the patio has the best view! The apartment is quaint with two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The only main complaint is the bed was terribly uncomfortable. Hard as a rock and the pillow was thin and flat. If those two things could be fixed, then we would definitely recommend this place!

Great location and view of Porto
A quaint unit good for 2 adults and 2 kids as the second bedroom is a bit small. But the location is wonderfully close to the cable car. Breath taking view of Porto especially at night. If coffee was provided for the wonderful coffee machine, it would be a plus.
We are grateful for our one night stay with 4 adults before our River cruise.
