The apartment is roomy, airy, comfortable, very clean and nicely decorated. The location is really great too and accessible to all of the downtown waterfront and neighboring areas. One slight inconvenience was the construction projects in progress near the apartment (no fault of the owner!) and one restaurant open late that sometimes affected the ability to leave windows open due to the noise that carried. We very much enjoyed the apartment though and our stay and hope to visit Porto again. Thank you for the opportunity.

Great location in Ribeira, near the river and walking distance to all the sights, but relatively quiet on a small side street. The windows are modern and quite sound proof.The apartment is typically small, but very clean and well suited for a single or a couple. Nice modern design.On the fourth floor, but with an elevator (slow), which also helps with the street noise.Guests with mobility issues should be aware that access to the apartment is by walking up (or down) a fairly steep cobbled street (which is also true for much of the old center of Porto).Highly recommended.

The apartment was well kept and in a fantastic location near the water and sites. We very much enjoyed our time. Our hostess was easy to communicate with and gave us some helpful tips. The only down if there was one was the expectation that parking was available at no cost. Not sure why we were told that or thought that. But it was a 120 for our car at the designated lot.
