Good experience with Manuela's apartment in Porto. Quick communication was provided by Manuela on our questions and the apartment was found as described. Marcia was on site to welcome us as well. Thank you both!
Manuela's appartment is just as advertised. Has all the amenities. We were delighted to be able to do a wash while we were staying.The neighbourhood is nice, sometimes a tad noisy, but it's close to shops and a bus stop.Contact with Manuela was easy and quick. Would stay again :)

We had a great stay. It was a quiet area and clean. It’s close to a supermarket that has everything you would need if you want to cook yourself. Can take bus, metro or easiest is to Uber to the city center.

Great stay! Perfect for feeling at home and at the same time it's easy to get to any location. I certainly recommend if you're tired of hotel vibes but at the same time want to have that home feel while enjoying your vacation. Also, right below the apartment is a coffee shop that servers great pastries and coffee. Thanks again for the great place we hope to visit again!
The apartment was exactly as advertised. Very clean with a full kitchen and a comfortable bed. Quiet neighborhood, easy to access with a rental car and a very convenient private garage were a big plus for us. J.R. from Canada.

Spacious clean apartment in a very established quiet neighborhood
Our host was very helpful, welcoming and provided excellent information about the apartment and the neighborhood. We were within walking distance from all the downtown had to offer with the benefit of being away from the noise and traffic ( the best of both worlds in our opinion). Definitely recommend.

Very cozy apartment in Porto with everything you need to spend some days in the city. Good connection with public transportation to the center by bus to Casa de la Música and by Metro to Sao Bento, just for 1,30 euros . Comfortable bed of the master bedroom. Ideal if you need a safe parking for your car .

As described and in good condition. Underground parking was certainly a plus. As we are walkers, the location is excellent. At no time did we feel unsafe or unsure of our surroundings. The block and apartment are very secure and laundry is a bonus.
We stayed 3 days. Very close to supermarket. We could walk downtown. We did not use our rental. Must wear good shoes for the 30 minute walk down town. Very clean and could do our laundry. :) We recommend.recommend!

Well equiped apartment. Great localization, just few minutes to bus stop and just few minutes to get out on the highway on a car. The parking inside the building is very well accessible. The owner is nice, supportive and responds immediately.
The apartment was cozy and clean and came with a parking spot in a garage. Manuela communicated effectively and quickly.
The apartment was far from the centre of Porto and the view was not pretty.

Nice property
Only had one real issue
After we booked the host contacted me to say there would be an 8 euro city tax that I need to pay her in cash when I got there
When I got there the “helper “ said the tax was 12 euros
This should have been disclosed at the booking process and I believe I was over charged as well

For clarification, I would like to inform you that:
A message was sent advising the payment of the tourist tax, which is mandatory in the city of Porto and expressly of 2 euros per person and per night. This information is also provided at the time of booking by the platform the guest chooses.
I regret that the amount of 8 euros was reduced due to a writing error, it was really my mistake. In any case, this guest did not show me his displeasure at check-in or during his stay. If he had done so, I would have obviously explained what happened and allowed the situation to be clarified, avoiding so much dissatisfaction and a less than satisfactory overall assessment of the stay.

This was a great apartment. Two grocery stores close by and an easy walk down to the water (if you love walking, 5KM) or by transit by Porto's super quaint subway system. It's about 10 minute walk to the nearest station. Parking was amazing. Great layout, bed was super comfortable. Shower was great, laundry was nice to have on our 6th day of travel.
We thought check-in was a bit confusing and as we were on the road, we were anxious about making it to the apartment in the small window of time we were given. But Manuela was super kind and I honestly would book here again.

Nice accomodations , but
The apartment facility is modern and in good condition. If you have a car the garage is a great advantage. However, the location provides nothing positive. It is quite noisy from traffic until 10pm. The view from the the windows/balcony is uninhabitable cottages. With no a/c sunny days are very warm.

Thank you for your comment and for choosing my apartment.
In reality, the location is part of my advertisement and therefore is clearly expressed publicly for those who wish to stay in my home. It is a city apartment located in the second largest Portuguese city, however it is equipped with double glazing in the windows to minimize noise and is in a quiet area of the city where some resident families live.
I have not seen any reference to the noise mentioned by Mickadoo in the reviews made by guests.
I'm sorry if something didn't please you.
Thank you very much anyway.
The best for you

A great trip in this magnificent city.
We enjoyed our stay in Porto in this apartment. It is located a little away from the frenzy of the center of Porto but offers us in return a lot of tranquility. A peaceful place after a busy day of sightseeing in this beautiful city. You have to walk 15 to 20 minutes to get to the metro but it's worth the trip. The modern metro is worth a visit and gives us quick access to all that interests a visitor of a few days in this city. It is important to visit the area with Casa Musica and the Museum of Contemporary Art. There is a supermarket nearby, two rather than one (Pinto Doce and Continent), excellent pastries and small restaurants including Portuguese rotisseries. The apartment is very well equipped. We could add a recent tv with cable and some cauldrons. The indoor parking is an asset besides our host Manuela warmly receives us and can give you all the information you want. An excellent stay in this city.

Thank you, Jean, for your kind words. Your detailed comment is a great help for me. It was a great pleasure to meet you and welcome you to my home. I am very happy that you have felt good. My idea and my effort is always to make everyone feel at home. You have treated my house very well. I am very grateful. I hope you can come back more often. My house is always at your disposal. The best for you.
In a quiet neighborhood, 3rd floor with elevator. Very spacious, a little far from downtown, but using uber, bolt is very affordable and easy.
Groceries store nearby, about 7 mins walk.
Garage parking is the plus. We parked our car during the stay and using uber & bolt to travel in town.
No A/C, afternoon sun, a little warm in the afternoon. But a fan in the bedroom & living room, help to cool down in the evening.
Big bedroom, a mattress is a little hard but we still had a good sleep.
Well equipped kitchen, a little of condiments would be helpful.
There is also a washing machine and a dishwasher.
Thank you for the apartment.
