Liked: Cleanliness
Pros: good place overall, clean apartment, comfortable bed, well equiped kitchen, the heating works well (during winter let it at 28-30 so it heats the entire apartment). Quiet day and night. Internet works great. 2 minute walk to the riverfront, 8-10 minutes to Porto by foot by crossing the bridge. Some places to eat nearby, a few convenience stores too (they close a bit early though). Would stay again.Cons: no laundrymat nearby, the lock was very tricky to close, took a bit to get it right. Very hilly area, so hard if you're carrying lots of luggage (great views nearby though!). General Torres station is somewhat close but you need to walk up many stairs and then up a hill, it's not very pedestrian friendly.
