If you ask, all people from Porto say that the best thing about GAIA is the view of PORTO, we don't know if it's true, but the main ATTRACTIONS of this city are on the BEIRA-RIO.
THE LOCATION of the apartment allows you to be close to the METRO, which can take you directly to the center of PORTO, or if you prefer, you can walk while absorbing the views of RIO uniting the two cities, once rivals.
To discover your CULTURE, be sure to visit the Monastery of SERRA DO PILAR and take a photo with a 360º view over PORTO and RIVER. Since it's so close, a piece of advice to RELAX: take advantage of an afternoon to have a PICNIC while watching the sunset at JARDIM DO MORRO, to the left of the board above LUIZ I BRIDGE. Don't forget to try a TOUR of the various CAVES OF PORT WINE in the city of Gaia.

De Gaia
House was very clean. Frustrating check-in process and no instructions for check-out.
Main gate was broken so if no other guests were available to let us in, we had to jump the 6 ft. Gate.
Walk to Porto was steep but we enjoyed it. Grocery and restaurants are walking distance, but at least .3 miles away.
Very clean and the balcony was nice.
