We stayed here for 2 nights while in Porto. Team was really good with communications before we arrived and extremely helpful with tips on where to go around town. Unexpectedly, the location was amazingly beautiful, literally just in front of Porto Cathedral. Apartment was clean, in good condition and we had an amazing view of the city. We had one twin bed and double bed, very convenient. Thank you!
