Disliked: Amenities
We had a unit on the 3rd floor, and the view was great. Paolo was very friendly and helpful on the front desk. The unit itself was in need of some TLC - the safe did not work, the toilet was broken with the seat not attached, the shower leaks leaving the bathroom very wet. I would suggest making additional towels available. The unit was small, and likely was a fantastic rental unit a few years ago.

The location next to the cathedral was very good. The surrounding neighbourhood was somewhat dark and at times appeared abandoned. However, it proved to be safe despite our initial misgivings. Overall, I would recommend it if you subscribe to their motto of authentic living. Porto is amazing and this apartment puts you in the middle of it all.

Beautiful location. Close to cathedral. Performers in the cathedral square offered constant entertainment from your window. Our apartment was on the third floor, so be prepared. Lots of stairs, hills and cobble stone abound.

Angelika, Vancouver

Liked: Cleanliness
The location is right at the foot of the walking ramp from the cathedral, which was amazing, and also 5 minutes walking from train and metro station - so very convenient. Room was nice and clean. The one disappointment was that I could not get into the room before 3 pm and there seemed to be no willingness to prioritize me - They had asked me before my arrival when I expected to get there, which I interpreted to mean they were planning for my arrival time, but I still could not get in until 3 PM. I came from the West Coast USA, so was completely wiped out, jetlagged. My priorities were to put down roots and go to the bathroom - their priorities were for the room to look perfect before I entered. I would have preferred to get in early, drop my luggage, use bathroom, even if everything was not yet perfect.
