- Since 2015 Portugal has more strictly enforced long-standing law requiring anyone to provide accommodation, to record the entry, exit, and identification details of all non-Portuguese nationals who use that accommodation. This law has been brought into force in Portugal and most other EU countries at some point since the gradual implementation of the 1990 Schengen Agreement that aims to stop human trafficking and other illegal practices. In this case, it is specifically Article 45 of the Schengen Agreement and the recent Local Law in Portugal that has brought this rule into sharper focus.
For this reason, all guests of every reservation need to show their passports, so we can collect the required information.

Well-Located Comfortable Apartment
This property was as advertised. Centrally located in the old town of Porto and well-appointed. If you are not used to street noise at night, this one may not be for you. And best to keep shutters closed during the night as there is quite a bit of ambient light. Easily located for those not familiar with Porto (use your phone app as Porto does not seem to have street signage). We would stay here again! Thanks to Maria, the host, check in and out was very easy.

Beautiful Porto
The cleaning lady let us in. The bathroom was clean but the place didn’t have a cozy feeling. It needs a good spring cleaning. I looked for a place that slept 3 because one of us was to sleep on the sofa, and Maria said that was an ext $25 per day. I found that deceiving, if the price is for 3, no extra fee should be applied

Loud neighborhood until 3am Charging $25 per night for use of sofa bed is a money grab. Still only 2 people but I don’t sleep with my cousin. And it didn’t even come w its own pillows. 1 coffee cup. 1 wine glass. Disconnected smoke alarm Host didn’t seem all together there.

Lovely apartment
We had a great stay. The apartment was coneniently located for all we wanted to do. Wonderful restaurants and bakeries nearby, easy walk to everything. We do think that the desciption should mention the bar on the ground floor. It was very loud Friday and Saturday nights. Also, it should mention that the parking is in a paid lot up the street and not at the actual location. The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable and Maria was a great host.

Love Porto… and things aren’t perfect
The apartment and its owner were lovely. The primary issue was noise… the apartment is directly above and between two popular bars whose patrons spill out onto the street until 2-3:00AM many nights and the parking garage across the street loudly beeps when it’s acres is opened or closed. Other VRBOs stock coffee and a few other accommodations for renters that she did not. The location and unit are fine for a 3-5 day stay… not adequate for our 1 1/2week stsy

Easy to book and pay in advance.. However What a disappointment. The unit had obviously been staged for the website photos. Although basic clean it was a very sad place, in need of extensive refurbishment, especially the bathroom. There was significant water damage to the bathroom door. I have photos and tile grout needs serious scrubbing. After paying in advance for the rental, the cleaning and the service, we had a demand of 2 eur per person per night - no receipt and in cash. What?????
