Excellent value for money in a great location. Only a short walk over the river to Porto itself. However there is quite a bit you can do in Villa Nova de Gaia and we spent a full day just near to the apartment.
The place is very designed, modern and appears to be quite new still. Everything was very clean when we arrived and each day after the cleaners had been. It had all the amenities you could want for short stay. We really loved our time here.
If you stay on the top floor which is appartment 6, you also get great views towards the front and back. However being so high up you also get a bit more minor noise and smells coming from the nearby restaurants. That is honestly the only bad thing I could say about the apartment, everything else is perfect.
