Absolutely fantastic apartment, right next to the indoor market, a minutes walk from the metro station and a street away from shopping. Only a short walk down to the river, bridge and riverside restaurants and many other attractions are within walking distance. Communication from both Sofia and Alex was brilliant before and during our stay. The apartment is very clean and the beds are comfortable. Our room overlooked the market and although busy during the day, was quiet at night so had a lovely feel about it. The kitchen contains everything you need, even a washing machine and a couple of washing pods are supplied. Supermarkets are very close if you are eating in but there are many fantastic eateries all around. We especially liked the Time Out Market at São Bento railway station for choice of food. The bathroom contains a good shower, with plenty of hot water and there is shower gel and soap, as well as toilet roll supplied. Sofia met us when we arrived (early) and the room was ready and made up for us. She also supplied us with a map of the city and directed us to lots of incredible places to visit, which we did. They were also able to store luggage both before and after check in/out if needed. We thoroughly enjoyed everthing about our stay in Porto. Thank you

Overall great place- would stay again 😁

Amazing location, easy to find, instructions of check-in sent day ahead were clear and easy to understand. Very comfortable bed, lots of towels, lots of books and dvd to choose from (even though dvd player wasn't working and all dvd were in Portugese). Salt, pepper, oil, vinegar, coffee and tea provided. They could improve on cosmetic side of the apartment (fresh paint to cover water damage on the walls) and more instructions could be in the apartment how to use Aircon to warm up the room . Also there is no elevator so it's not reachable for people with walking difficulties.

Property manager is super excellent, helpful, honest & extremely on top of things. He keeps us updated, always there when we needed assistance. Property is directly located across Bolhao market, how cool is that? Its located centrally to all major sights that you would want to see while in Porto. Clean, spacious, appreciate the welcome coffee pods. I would go back to Porto and stay with this apartment again! Thank you very much for everything!

Highly recommended

Check-in was a breeze with great communication on our way there from Sofia (who also gave us some superb local tips on arrival). Apartment was spotless, spacious and in a perfect location - walking distance to everything, while also being on a very calm street. Would definitely return - highly recommended!

Nice location

Great location for getting around. Located on a pedestrian mall, so you have to figure a way to get your bags from parking to/from across city streets. Be prepared. Alex was helpful getting us oriented. Shower almost impossible to use. Slow in getting it fixed before we checked out feeling slightly stinky.

Location is amazing. However, to get into the apartment, we weren’t able to locate the property manager due to our late arrival. We waited for 30 minutes and plenty of phone calls. During our stay, we ran out of toilet paper and we didn’t see any property manager during our entire stay after the first day of check in. Really lovely apartment though. Very functional. Will stay there again, just wish they have better communication for check ins.

We were very happy with the Apartment. Plenty of facilities to use if you wanted too. Cleaned and tidied regularly. Reception staff could not have been more helpful. Very good location for the Metro and only a short walk to the Centre and/or many bars and restaurants.

Pros: Joana and staff were excellent. They will help with bags and provide a map of the city, note where to eat, tour, etc. Any time we had a question it was answered quickly. You'll be given an android cell with up to 60 mins of free calls each day (very nice!), some tour/hotspot apps and recommendations, etc, and internet access, but it was restricted from full use like your personal cell. WiFi is provided on property, with one hotspot for each floor. Room was very clean. Cons: There is no elevator, we had to walk up 80 stairs to the loft. There's no AC or windows for air circulation in the hallways, so you'll be winded and sweaty every time you enter and go up to your room (I'm in shape, and it's still quite a slog in the stuffy hallways, especially carrying luggage). There's no clothes washer or dryer. WiFi for the top floor was very spotty (1-2 bars), it would go in and out on all our devices no matter what time of day. The large market across the street won't be done for at least another year, there's a lot of construction and the road in front of the apt is blocked off. You can drive a rental onto a portion of the road, but you can't park - that's a few blocks away, they charge 10 euro/day. There are seagulls/birds who create a HUGE amount of noise throughout the entire night, right outside the top floor windows - bring earplugs or you won't get much sleep.
