Fantastic Apartment !
This is a great flat to stay. Centrally located just steps from the Cathedral and The Bridge. Fernando is very welcoming and great communicator. Apartment is modern and well stocked with everything you might need. Nice balcony with the coffee table and great view across the river. Apartment is safe and quiet. It's bigger than appears on photos. Supermarket is just minutes away and the main street with shops and Majestic cafe is a five minutes wals. I can say this is one of the best apartments (if not the best!) we've rented through VRBO. Highly recommend !

porto apartment
We were warmly welcomed by Alfonso and his wife. They gave us a lot of information about Porto and how to get around the city. The apartment was spacious and well equipped and the range of food provided was excellent, including even a bottle of wine. We enjoyed our stay in the apartment and will return one day.
