Roomy modern apartment close to attractions.

We really enjoyed the roominess of the apartment. Three bedrooms all en-suite were much appreciated. The beds were comfortable. We walked to most attractions. The only very small downside was the light filtering blinds in master bedroom - a street light shines in all night. Would Definitely stay here again.

Loved our time here - highly recommended!

This apartment is located in a great section of Porto, has an elevator and is beautifully renovated. The FeelPorto staff is friendly and helpful, very thorough in answering our questions and making sure we were comfortable during our stay. There are a variety of private and common spaces for people to sleep and spend time during the day (we were 6), and even the couches convert into comfortable beds! Depending on your group, I'd recommend arranging for someone to clean during your stay so basic needs can be restocked. Highly recommend staying here!

Spacious apartment - great location!

There was lots of room for two couples. An ensuite in each bedroom and a powder room was a definite plus! Location was great for walking to lots of neighborhoods,just a short Uber ride. Market and supermarkets just a 5-minute walk away. Because it is on a fairly busy street, you can hear some noise from traffic. Responses from the Feel Porto team were great!

Overall, very good, and in many ways excellent

The property itself is excellent, in terms of space, cleanliness, and the benefit of each bedroom having an ensuite bathroom. Good, reliable wifi. Kitchen fine for a short stay. Some improvements could include re-orienting the sitting area to better relate to the dining area, and improving the lighting in these spaces, which is otherwise harsh; also, the motion activated lighting in the hallway can become annoying. While the apartment is on a somewhat busy cobbled road, this was OK unless one is very sensitive to outside noise; external shutters can be lowered to help lessen the noise at night. The check-in was excellent; the Feel Porto agent was personable and helpful, and right on time. Some difficulties with the digital keys at first, but eventually this was resolved. Less helpful was the initial onslaught of emails from VRBO, Feel Porto, and other services, which made the early stages of booking and registration messy and sometimes confusing; and some Feel Porto web services were not entirely functional, though again the FP agents helped resolve issues through email and WhatsApp communications. As per the title: overall, very good, and in many ways excellent, and easy to recommend.

Très bel appartement extrêmement bien placé

Excellent emplacement ! Central pour tout visiter à pied ou en transports en commun. Le fait de pouvoir obtenir une place de parking avec la location est tres appréciable car le parking n’est autorisé dans les rues que pour 2 heures. Énormément de magasins à proximité. Les échanges sont très simples avec FeelPorto qui gère l’appartement. Cet appartement spacieux a de très beaux volumes avec une belle pièce à vivre et de grandes chambres. Deux des chambres sont très calmes car sur cours, la troisième donnant sur la rue est un peu plus bruyante du fait de la rue passante. Idéale en famille ou entre amis car chaque chambre possède sa propre sdb avec toilettes.

Everything was great. A few minor issues but this would not stop us coming again.

Your staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was very good. NEED ITEMS. Both sets of keys were very difficult to use. Coat hangers needed in the hall and bedrooms. Bedside lights. Electric kettle. British visitors normally bring tea bags. Maybe one English TV channel { news }.
