Perfect Location

This apartment is in the perfect location to walk to all the Porto sites (as well as having the Metro right outside the door). Many restaurants in the area. Inside the apartment is immaculately clean. My only suggestion would be to add more shelving or hooks in the bathroom area. We would definitely book this place again and encourage others to do so while in Porto.

Quiet place in the heart of Porto

The location of this wonderful apartment is in right in the center of the historic district of Porto. It's an easy walk to everything (and I have a 4 year old). The courtyard below the apartment is cleared out at dusk and locked (you have a key) which means that you get a great nights sleep. The apartment has a great balcony and an espresso maker and a bottle of port (what else do you need?). All the amenities are provided and Hugo the owner also arranged someone to pick us up at the airport because we came in late. Highly recommend this place. Perfect for exploring the city. Thanks Hugo!

Best VRBO we have used on this trip

Owner greeted us and showed us where everything was. Although a studio we had plenty of room for 4 days. Apartment is thoroughly stocked with everything you will need even though we didn't cook. Coffee pods were plentiful and a decanter of port was left. So much natural light and a small balcony to enjoy. Close to everything. Highly recommend

Beautiful apartment - great location

A well decorated and appointed apartment with a host who goes out of his way to highlight his city and the joys to be found. Location in central Porto next to tram and subway together with available underground (though expensive) parking is hard to beat. Not much street noise even though opens onto public courtyard during daytime.

Fully Equipped and Supplied

Great value for money. All as described. In the centre of Old Porto and in a newer building facing a quiet court yard. Hugo met us with with cordial, concise and complete description of all operations in the apartment. He has prepared a map of the area on which he marks recommended things to see, bus route numbers, everything to make touring easy. We have never stayed in a rental apartment that is so well supplied with such as tea, coffee, salt, olive oil plus the various soaps and cleaning supplies. The special treat was a full decanter of port and two glasses. Rent this property.

Perfect Porto experience

Ideally located for the old town, everything within a 20 minute walk. Hugo was an excellent host, not only providing a bespoke map but spent time with us explaining key places of interest. There's more to do and see, so we will definitely visit again. The apartment is tastefully decorated and has all amenities for a short stay ( we did 4 nights). We really loved the complimentary coffee, the port and the apartment. Thoroughly recommend.

Excellent location to explore Porto

We stayed at this apartment for two nights recently -- we should have stayed longer. The apartment is in an excellent location to explore Porto. It is very close to the central train station if you come by train. If you drive, as we did, there is a large parking garage below the apartment complex with lifts to the apartment door. Hugo, the owner, gave us a superb orientation to the equipment in the apartment and to the city. He's an enthusiastic salesperson for the area. Using a clear map, he told us about the attractions, points of interest, and restaurants. The apartment is bright and appealing. It's very well-equipped, although we didn't do more than make coffee and tea. The bathroom is spacious and very useable. Hugo thoughtfully supplies personal care products as well as the expected necessities. The bed and pillows are very comfortable The apartment is beautifully laid out. Hugo and his wife clearly understand how to make a large main room into a series of comfortable, useable spaces, maintaining the openness but still multi-functional. There are interesting pictures and graphics that enrich the appearance. It's the kind of space that two people or an small family will be comfortable in for an extended stay.
