Très bel emplacement

Nous avons été très bien accueilli par Paulo. L’appartement est idéalement situé au pied du pont Dom luis et offre une vue imprenable sur les quais et le Douro. L’immeuble est calme. Par contre nous avons été très déçus par le manque d’entretien général de l’appartement : il est très peu équipé, le ménage est plus qu’approximatif ( traces de moisissures, cheveux dans la douche, placards et vaisselle sale, odeur de tabac, poussière….), literie de mauvaise qualité ( oreillers datés, lits inconfortables et poussiéreux), fuite aux toilettes, réfrigérateur bruyant, tapis et couverture non entretenus. Bref, malgré l’emplacement nous ne recommandons pas cet appartement.

Not comfortable and not clean

I don't like to write negative reviews, especially when the owners were so nice, but this place needs a serious renovation or at the very least, a deep-DEEP cleaning and a new mattress and bed sheets. The bed's mattress was bumpy and extremely uncomfortable. The pillows don't look like pillows anymore. The sheets are overused and scratchy and they smell musty. The same with the towels. There was mold in the kitchen and in the shower. They had a shaggy carpet that should be thrown away. I used my hand sanitizer to go through each light switch and everything else that we would have been touching, they were dirty. I don't think this place has been properly cleaned in a while. The location of the place is absolutely amazing, it is on the Gaia side and the view from the window is beautiful. Everything was within walking distance. It could be a little loud because it's right by the river, but that does not bother us. They have a heating system that was pleasant since at night the temperature went down, we were there in December. The check-in process was easy and the communication with the owners was easy. To get to the apparent, the stairs are very stepped, just something to keep in mind, in case you have mobility issues. Paulo and his wife were very nice.

Séjour excellent

La situation de l’appartement est excellente en un point touristique absolument stratégique. On est tout de suite plongé dans l’ambiance trépidante de ce lieu magique jusque tard le soir. De cet endroit, l’accès à tous les sites est aisé mais munissez-vous de bonnes chaussures pour évoluer dans les quartiers quelquefois pentus. L’appartement est sobre mais offre le confort nécessaire. Prévoir la réservation d’une place de parking tout proche car le stationnement est compliqué.

Great experience

Maria was really helpful, and replied all the questions fast we asked. The location is really good in front of the river, it was a bit noise during the day because all the tourists and bar on the ground floor. If you enjoy the live music, every night from 19:00 to 23:00 you can see there has a live-band in front of the apartment next to the river. The apartment is not so big, but there has mostly stuffs you will need. It has AC and the kitchen to cook sometimes.
