Wonderful location

We stayed with our family of 5 for 4 nights and really appreciated the location of this property. Beds were comfortable and place was clean. Really responsive owners although we never did receive a receipt of the tourist fee we paid which was taken by owner at time of check in with cash only.

Perfect location and very spacious

A lovely, spacious apartment in the ideal location for exploring all of Porto. Really comfortable beds and hot, powerful showers! We enjoyed coming back to this apartment after experiencing lots of rain in Porto, so it was very handy how close we were to everything.

Porto get away

Great location. For check-in, we did have to coordinate to meet at the property to obtain the keys-same at check-out. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. The beds were comfortable. It is on the 2nd floor (3rd level) with no lift but this was not an issue for us.

Perfect location in Porto

Marc was a great host. Flexible on check in and check out. The location is perfect. Walkable to almost everything we wanted to see. Great little café across the street. Castro‘s Natas on the corner. Best we had. The apartment was well appointed and had everything we needed. We would come again.

Porto apt

Location was excellent, slight problem with breaker going off, no big deal after located fuse. Apartment very nice, with windows closed cannot hear street noise. Hallway stairway extensor noisy.. can hear people loudly coming in between 3-4:30 am. Suggestion would be nice to have coffee or tea in apt. Minor concerns, really enjoyed apt and location. Marc was very good and helpful to deal with. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO in Porto! The location was unbeatable—just a short walk to the river, metro stop, restaurants, and shops. Despite being on a busy road, the apartment was remarkably quiet, allowing for a restful stay.The amenities were excellent, with an elevator and air conditioning making our visit especially comfortable. The host was attentive and ready to greet us at check-in, ensuring a smooth arrival. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the space was ideal for our family of five adults. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy to prepare meals when we didn’t feel like dining out. Additionally, the provided resources with restaurant and tour recommendations were a thoughtful touch. The view from the balcony was a lovely bonus!A couple of things to note: The lofted bedroom and the large opening with shutters in one of the bedrooms meant privacy was a bit compromised. While this wasn’t an issue for us, it could be something to consider for future guests. Additionally, the live TV wasn’t accessible, and the slow internet made streaming difficult—hopefully, just a one-time issue.Overall, this rental was a fantastic choice, and we’d happily stay here again!

Beautiful apartment in Central Porto

The apartment was very spacious and nicely decorated. Really well located in the heart of the Ribeira, it was easy to get to trains, and other transportation. Lots of restaurants, and places to see. After all of the hills and stairs throughout the immediate area, the elevator was a real plus at the end of the day.

Great location

We were very happy with our stay at this apartment in Porto. The manager was very communicative and helpful. The location is excellent. We were around the corner from a square with several excellent restaurants and entertainment. Below us we had a Pastel de Nata bakery that made delicious fresh pastries throughout the day and across the street was a tourism office where we were able to get tickets for the sightseeing bus. Super helpful. There is a small kitchen where we were able to have hot drinks in the morning but other than that, we really didn't eat in and there isn't a washing machine (which I am sure is noted in the listing and I just didn't notice), but we had everything we needed. The beds were super comfortable and the water pressure and temperature were excellent.
