There is good and bad to this place. The good Amazing view, excellent location,,comfortable bed, decent amenities and clean for the age of the place. Do not rent if you have mobility issues The stairs to the unit ar very steep,narrow, uneven and smelly. The apartment could use some updating, the fridge leaks which has caused some floor issues, and it could use a new rug and a paint job

The Douro River apartments might actually be selling themselves short when it comes to location. The hotel is on the Gaia side of the river, which has a clean, spacious, lively feel and is loaded with shops, market stalls, delicious restaurants, and all of the wine tasting rooms. The apartments are also just 1 block away from the south side of of the lower level of the Dom Luis I Bridge, and within 5 minutes, you can be on the Ribeira side. However, what really makes Douro Riverside most fantastic is the stunning views from the apartment. Windows of Porto across the river. No matter what time of day or night, the city is a picture-perfect display. One word of caution, this amazing view comes with some pretty steep, narrow stairs and no elevator.... but the location and views are worth it.

The view alone is worth the price. Great location with walking distance to attractions and the riverside walk. Owners are super kind with quick responses and the room was very clean. I'd not hesitate to book here again for my next visit to Porto.

The location was great, it’s right at the center of Riberia for a fraction of the price. A plus for having available parking to drop off the car and walk everywhere! It’s perfect for the location. The room needs a little update, perhaps the carpet needs to go, otherwise it was great !

The apartment offers a beautiful view of the river and has plenty of space. However, the staircase is very unsafe, especially when carrying luggage.

This was a truly unique and amazing place to stay. I would definitely recommend it to anyone staying in Gaia. The views from the room are incredible and it is perfectly located. The shower is a tad small for me (5’11” 210lbs) however it worked and the rest of the room easily offset any downsides.

What makes this property is the location. We stayed on the first floor and the view from the kitchen window is great. Very walkable to restaurants, shops, wine cellars, etc. The steps are steep, the door is narrow and the shower is minuscule but that’s all ok and worth it. Would recommend and stay again if coming back to Oporto.

Fantastic apparent with an amazing view. Great location to walk to the port houses and across to Porto. With getting back for sunset with a glass of wine. The stairway up is worth it for the view. Super helpful and wonderful owners!

My stay was great. The last night was a bit bothersome as the 3rd floor new comers made noise at 2am and woke me up. The stairs are a bit inconvenient as they are high & narrow stairs and also a bunch of bags at the bottom which made it hard to get luggage up and down the stairs.

Even though there are no elevators in this building, going up the stairs to the 3rd floor was well worth it. I call it the stairway to heaven. The view is well worth the climb. Apartment was very clean, had ample hot water, and tons of supplies to make our stay comfortable. This venue is a hidden gem. We would definitely stay here again.
