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 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 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.

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.

Fantastic location overlooking the river, with excellent restaurants within a few 100 metres on the riverside. Very easy to get across the river on both lower and upper levels of the bridge. Oustatnding communication from the hosts, and the secure parking is only a few 100 metres away so very easy indeed. We loved our time in the partment, and would most certainly stay gain if we ever return to the wonderfil city of Porto. 5* indeed

Wow what a view! Unbeatable! Great location. Walkable to everything. You must however be willing to walk up some very steep stairs to the second floor apartment. The view from the kitchen dining table is your reward. The apartment is functional and met our needs.
