A great stay!
We had a great stay at Luis' place - the location is ideal for exploring the centre of town and Luis was a very accommodating host in terms of checking in and out. The aircon is excellent and there was plenty of space for our large group.

Porto experience
The house had lots of spaces, which was nice for our group of 4. Everything was clean, well stocked and convenient. The rooms look fresher in the photos- we are suggesting an update in bedding would be a nice improvement as they were worn.

Excellent location
This property is right where you want to be in Porto. It is lovely home; there are wood floors everywhere and the bedrooms all have locks to each door as the house can be rented out by the room. As we were a large group, we were allowed to have the entire home to ourselves. There is a lovely tapas/ drinks establishment right next door which is excellent. Shopping very close by. We did have an issue with the heat in the basement but Luis did his best to fix it quickly. If location is your goal, this is the place for you in Porto.

Great location for exploring Porto and surrounds. Very spacious house with plenty of restaurants nearby. Also a small supermarket for the nights you want to eat in. The owner was very helpful and nice. We had a car and could park on the street if lucky or in a nearby parking garage.

Great house and location!
This house and our host are fantastic. Very updated yet with classic charm. I stayed here with my 5 siblings and our spouses and everyone had their own room and bathroom. Kitchen is well appointed. Luis quickly responded to any questions or needs we had. There is a wine bar a few doors up the street in an old Chapel that is lovely too. We loved our waiter, Pedro!

Love the location of this place. Walking distance to many restaurants and shopping. Rooms were well kept, a bit on the older side but very clean. Each room has a washroom except for one which was an excellent feature for our group. Kitchen was functional and we were able to cook a few meals. Luis is very thorough and helpful abs responds to communications very quickly! I would definitely book this place again if I come back to Porto!

Multi generation Family Trip
This location has bathrooms in each room, which was great for us. Each room had its own A/C unit. Each bedroom has its own lock on the door. Kitchen and common area we on the lower level, which we did not use. Located in walking distance to many tourist attractions. We would stay again. NOTE: this location rents out rooms individually, so you may stay with strangers.

Great location
The property and location was perfect. Be aware that the property owner asked for 2€ per person per day at check in. We had 8 people for 6 nights. So I had to give Luis 96€ at checkin. It did not say that anywhere on the listing and the next property we stayed at did not ask for this. He said it was a “tourist tax”

The basement kitchen/ dining/ living room is well stocked and provides a great place to congregate and catch up. The owner is very helpful and responsive.

Centrally Located Dream
Our stay here was amazing. Luis’ property is perfectly located to get around Porto. The rooms were great and the overall size was perfect for our large group. Having separate bathrooms was a dream! The rail strike messed up our arrival, but Luis was very accommodating in adjusting our meet up time to check us in. He remained amiable, prompt and communicative throughout. The only downside is that some of the lower floors can get a little musty, but as to be expected in a historic building. Letting in some fresh air really helped to counteract after a few hours. Regardless, would definitely stay here again!

Amazing Location but Very Poor Space
Pros: Location, everything is walkable. Restaurants and tourist sites all very close Amenities (plenty of amenities, dishes, fridge, washing machine, hang dry area) Everyone had their own bathroom Very friendly host Flexible check-in and check-out Cons: No free parking as mentioned in listing, I ended up returning my rental car early which cost an additional €60 in cabs to/from airport. I also walked around to see if there was a 24hr parking garage and couldn't find one. There were some open 0730-2200 but I'd have to move the car each morning and evening Water leaked from the basement ceiling when someone was showering a floor above - which made sense why there was black mold in a corner of the basement The basement cooling unit dripped water down the wall by the couch Two in-room cooling units wafted a heavy smell of pee while on A tenant lived above so we had to lock each rooms door when leaving. This should be mentioned in the listing
