Fantastic Central Porto Location on a restaurant row
Lovely location on a very active street in the middle of Porto. Easy walking distance to basically everything. Fantastic restaurants on the very street. You'll need to walk up several flights of stairs so be ready to carry your bags. The place itself has a nice living/den area and a big table. Kitchen is not equipped for much cooking--two hot plates and a microwave. Right next to the front door is a little store where you can pick up water/soda etc. Up the street are 2-3 cafes and a boulanger where you can get real pastel de nata pasteries. If you are into very fine dining, reserve at Dop in advance. Exceptional Michelin restaurant. Mistu slightly less fancy but fabulous--great cocktails if you are a coctail hound. Holy has a line in front every day before it opens and has fantastic burgers. If you go up the hill and then up the staircase at the top there is a fantastic panoramic view of the city

Porto break
The property is clean spacious and very centrally located. Walking distance to everything, river is 2 minutes away and plenty of restaurants locally. Petra is very responsive to messages and is lovely. It is on the 3rd floor so lots of stairs to climb which was not a problem for us but Incase someone is elderly or has mobility issues. We had a wonderful stay.

Great location for walking
This property was in a great location for walking around town and had plenty of shops and restaurants close by. We thoroughly enjoyed that aspect however, it wasn’t a quite lazy area. There is a lot of construction going on in the surrounding buildings and it starts at 8:00 AM straight up! Also, the pillows could use an upgrade. They are quite flat and covered with plastic protector under the pillowcase which makes for awful sleeping. The layout of the property was great for our family however. The kitchen was stocked with all the basics, which we did not use a lot of because we wanted to eat the local food, which was amazing. Also, the people of Portugal are very friendly, and we very much enjoyed our time in Porto.

Wonderful Place to Call Home in Porto
We felt very at home in this apartment while staying in Porto. The central location was very convenient for all of our adventures. There was construction going on around the apartment and I will be interested in seeing how things change in the area as this is completed! Thank you for making our trip more enjoyable!

Best location!!
This apartment is truly in the best location. You can walk everywhere in the city. As others have reviewed the check-in was a bit confusing and communication was difficult. Very little to no English with the property manager and Host. Hardly any parking garages in Porto, but since we could walk everywhere, we found a 24 hour parking garage that is a 10 minute walk from the apartment. Without an elevator, the four story walk up and down daily would be difficult for those with mobility issues. The actual apartment was as describe however we were there during the winter and it was freezing cold in the apartment. The space heaters provided in every room do not give off much heat. Extra blankets were provided, but still very cold. It was also very frustrating not having a place to hang wet towels. I hope that the host installs some hooks or bars in the bathrooms for future guests.

Fun in Porto
Great location...really easy to walk to everything we wanted to see and do. Great restaurants in the neighborhood. The apartment was generally good and "as advertised". We were a bit disappointed with the check-in process and the communication before and during our stay. Nothing was very clearly defined or communicated and that led to some frustrations and complications. Small item: wish there were some towel hooks to hang wet towels and clothes. The laundry lines outside were unfortunately exposed to sideways rain during several days of our visit.

Great - but …
Overall, great experience and hostess. The only thing that was a bit confusing was the extra charges when we checked in. Our reservation indicated we were paid in full, but when we checked in m, we were asked to pay an extra tax per person per night. Other than that, very nice property in good location.

Apartment was perfect for our family of five adults. All rooms were nice and comfortably furnished and supplied with everything we needed. Location is on a small side street right in the thick of things. We walked easily everywhere we wanted to go, including sites, stores, restaurants and the waterfront on both sides of the river.

Beautiful property and so close to everything Did not realize the apartment was on the 3rd floor and no lift, lots of stairs but we managed The toilet seats need attention. The one upstairs was cracked in two places and the toilet seat downstairs was missing a fastener But overall it was a pristine well appointed apartment and I would stay there again

Enjoyed our stay , fantastic location but not for anyone who cant do stairs and a real challenge with luggage and on a daily basis became a chore. Would have been good to know of alterations being done all around from early morning in adjoining apartments. Just a couple of helpful hints , mirrors required in bedrooms , enough cups for residents and larger kettle needed.

We had a great time in Petronela's apartment. This apartment is in a very central area, with easy access to everything. Check-in was a little bit confusing but once we were settled in, we had no complaints. Very clean, quiet building, third floor walk-up. We would definitely stay again. Petronela is a really responsive and available host!

We loved this location! It was within 5min of many sites and great restaurants. The owner of the property greeted us and gave us a tour upon check in. We visited when it was raining very hard and she allowed us to borrow her umbrella. All of the amenities were clean and the apartment was spotless. I would highly recommend booking through Petronela!

Central location
Petronela was very responsive and helpful! She is very familiar with the sights and restaurants and we appreciated it. The apartment is located centrally in Porto and is incredibly convenient. There are also several great restaurants on the same street for dining including a vegetarian/vegan for those who are interested. One thing that we would share is the downstairs sandwich shop can get rowdy but that is not in Petronela’s control, all other things were great!
