Cozy stay
We loved staying in this cozy apartment for our trip to Porto. We had everything we needed…beds, bathrooms, and a kitchen. While it was a bit chilly, we did get the opportunity to enjoy the yard, too. The apartment was in a great location, within walking distance to anywhere we wanted to go (including the train).

Relaxing, comfortable, convenient
The apartment is super cute with a pleasant garden where we enjoyed both morning coffee and evening wine. It has everything to make a stay in Porto easy and fun. Groceries and Bolhão very close. Functional kitchen, washer, great a/c. Lots of room (we were two) to spread out. Bathroom is spacious but needs a little mildew removal on the shower tiles. Would definitely stay again - host responses were very helpful and quick.

Very Nice, a bit of a hike!
Everything was great here. Just know that there are no supplies. No plastic, foil, coffee, salt and pepper. No dishwasher tabs, same for the clothes washer. So if you plan on using any of these things come supplied or get ready to go to the grocery store.
Good neighborhood but a bit of a hike up and down the hills toward things.
