About this property

Porto, City Center Apartment - Right in the Heart of the City!

Porto brings together some of the most beautiful buildings in Portugal, and is considered by many, the Capital of Architecture. This city breathes culture and quality of life. Among the major attractions, there is Tower of Clerics, Lello Bookshop & Brother, Majestic Café, São Bento Station, Bridges Dona Maria and Dom Luis I, the Historic Centre of Oporto World Heritage site by UNESCO. The traditional houses of Ribeira color the Douro River, the road of the famous Rabelo boats that bring us this precious liquid - the Port Wine!

But it is not just of the past that Porto lives, is also a city of the future! The Serralves Museum, the House of Music, the night downtown and strong now rejuvenated traditional commerce, make this city the forefront of a contemporary cosmopolitan European city. If we add to all this, the wonderful parks with its open-air concerts, a city bathed by the Douro River and the Atlantic Ocean, you surely feel at home.
Increasingly awarded a destination 'must visit', to live and enjoy.

In the Region of Porto you can fall in love with soul and tradition of the people, the warmth of hugs and genuine way to create long - term relationships.

Welcome to Porto!
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a sofa bed, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Paula met us upon arrival and had some nice port wine for us. The location is excellent- about a zillion restaurants and bars within an easy walking distance. The street itself is has no traffic (no cars allowed) but it can get lively at night. The bedrooms don’t face the street so they are pretty quiet. Note: the small balcony off the kitchen in the back is facing a hotel construction zone. They don’t work at night so it’s not a problem.

A little disappointing

This is an appartment with great potential, but needs a little brush up, more thorough cleaning, better organisation. Being situated right in the heart of the party, I would recommend it for young adults intending to stay up late rather than a family.Host should inform about the tourist tax in advance, or include it in overall price, instead of announce it on arrival, that was an unwelcome surprise.

One of the best I ever stayed in!

This is one of best apartments I’ve ever stayed. Great location. Spacious. Sparkling clean including white crisp sheets ( which turns out not always to be norm)! Appartment has all the needed things, including fully equipped kitchen. Host is more than caring, attentive, and responsive. We were welcomed With a carafe of Porto and treats of Natas. Could not expect anything better. Thank youA Paula!

Apartment is in a great area of Porto with everything walking distance. Host is very responsive. Property had ants everywhere upon arriving and host was quick to ensure we had products to spray the ants with. Lots to space in the property, but linens and bedding is vey run down and could use updating.

Great location

The location is very good & easy access the tourist sights & metro. The apartment offered what was on line however it needs some fixing up. The space was clean however the floors, rugs & walls are in need of fixing & paint. It’s getting run down. There were ants. Pillows & bedding also need upgrading. The street has great restaurants & shops however it can get extremely noisy some nights. We were there during warm weather & had to keep the windows open therefore the noise was very loud & lasted until the early morning.

Paula is a wonderful communicator. The apartment is very clean and spacious. Bathroom - particularly the shower - could do with some updating - but very clean! Unfortunately the noise from the restaurant staff next door when they were closing for the night woke us up each night around 01:30 - shouting, laughing - disturbed our sleep every night. Not Paula's fault - but the noise would certainly prevent us from staying again.

The perfect host and perfect location

Absolutely beautiful Paula, she met us personally very late at night and helped with parking and orientation. There is everything you might need at Appartment small kitchen, 2 bedrooms, balcony and a living room. We were thankful the stairs did have additional door, do our toddler was safe with it. Paula was ready to be available for any request via watsup, very convenient indeed. Location is just perfect you are in a walking distance from anywhere. We were in doubts taking flat with heating only and no air-conditioner, but it was not needed for our stay in July at all. Evening temperature was low enough to sleep comfortably. Thanks a lot!!!

Baustelle inclusive!

Anreise und Schlüsselübergabe problemlos. Beim betreten der Treppe in die Räume bekam mich ein klammes Gefühl, die Treppe hat gebrochene Stufen und gibt teilweise nach.Das Apartment selbst ist etwas heruntergekommen, die Böden schief mit Spaxschrauben nachgebessert .Küche mit alten Möbeln und einem rostigen, teilweise defekten Kühlschrank (Eisfach).Das schlimme war aber die Baustelle, es finden Abbrucharbeiten hinter dem Haus statt, in großen Umgang mit mehreren Baggern und Kränen.Der Lärm ( Pressluft Hammer) begann gegen 7:00 ! Unsere Vermieterin Paula sah sich nicht verantwortlich, machte uns noch Vorwürfe warum wir uns Beschweren…Fazit: Porto ja, Paula nein!

Schöne Tage in Porto

Wir verlebten sehr schöne Tage in Porto. Die Wohnung ist sehr schön, die Lage topp. Natürlich ist es etwas lauter, allerdings liegt das halt in der Natur der Sache bei einer Wohnung, die in einem Kneipenviertel liegt. Wir haben uns auf jeden Falll sehr wohl gefühlt. Leider war die Vermieterin bei der Ankunft nicht da, so dass es etwas tricky war, überhaupt in die Wohnung zu gelangen. Auch bei der Abreise war sie nicht da. Sehr schade.

Excellent emplacement, propre et hôte gentille, elle nous a même autorisé d'arriver tôt à l'appartement. Le bruit sur la rue ne nous a pas dérangé, car c'est juste les gens qui parlent comme si on écoute de la télé 😀, en plus y'a pas de bruit dans les chambres intérieures juste au salon, petite rue donc pas de circulation de voitures juste les restos et leurs terrasses.
