Exceeded our expectations
The property was in a great location. We were able to walk to everything in the old town. The place was very clean and had everything available (such as cooking supplies, soap, toilet paper, etc.). There is an outdoor seating area to enjoy your morning coffee or tea. The property manager met us at the property and went over everything in the apartment, as well as the town. It was one of the most thorough check-ins we have had at a VRBO property. He even messaged us the next day to see how our stay was going. It was a very positive experience.

Perfect Porto Apartment
This Porto apartment was perfect for my visit. My check in was extremely late due to my flight but Gustavo, the host, still greeted me at the apartment with instructions and offered really helpful advice on how to see this incredible city. The apartment is situated right on the edge of the bustling city center and there are so many things to do and see within walking distance. It was easy to take public transportation across town with nearby bus lines and the metro. It is on the first floor so requires walking up a set of stairs - there's no lift so if you can't manage walking up one flight of stairs you should look for another place. The rental itself was clean, incredibly charming and had everything I could possibly need for my stay. I noticed the thoughtful touches throughout: complementary beverages, picnic blanket if you would like to spend time at a park, umbrellas in the event there's rain, beach towels, etc. The owners take pride in this place and it shows. Gustavo was also helpful in securing a taxi for me to the airport which cost 22-24€. I would recommend this place without hesitation.

This is a gem of a place to stay. Close enough to walk into all the main areas with street parking available a few minutes walk away. The apartment is compact but well fitted out and our host couldn't be more helpful. Would definitely return and recommend to others.

Excellent location and Host
Gustavo, our host, was exceptionally attentive to accomodate us from even before we arrived. Upon our arrival, his genuine smile and help made us feel at home instantly. He supplied us with a city map with points of interest. This was a big help in taking advantage of our 5 night stay. The apartment was extremely cozy and very clean. The fact that it is located at the beginning of an important vibrant street, and walking distance to major landmarks, it made our stay in Porto all the more pleasant. The apartment has all the charm and privacy needed. Will definitely contact Gustavo and Sibeli on our next visit to Porto. Thanks for the wonderful memories.

Great location, clean and comfortable beds.
Pros: location, owner gave great area info on check in, allowed us to check in early too; has a well equipped kitchen for longer stays and a washer. Just know that the outside patio is underground as it’s built into a hillside and gets no direct sunshine for drying clothes etc. Good for fresh air and daylight, but little else. Comfortable stay and would stay again.

A great apartment and a great host!
The apartment was in a great location! We could walk to everything. The apartment was super clean - perfect for the 2 of us. Gustavo was extremely responsive and met us when we arrived that evening - he even got in the car and helped us locate a parking spot! He gave us an itinerary of things we could do in Porto with the limited time that we had there. He went above and beyond!!! We would highly recommend this apartment to anyone and will definitely return again someday!

Wonderful vacation memories
Gustavo and Sibeli are incredibly caring and responsive hosts. They provided information about local restaurants, attractions, parking etc. prior to the trip and responded to any questions prior and during the stay within minutes (via WhatsApp or via VRBO.) The apartment is in a convenient location where we were able to reach a lot of attractions and restaurants by foot. The apartment is very cute, nicely decorated, and furnished with everything two people could possibly need. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone who would like to visit Porto and have a memorable visit.

Excelente apartamento con todos los necesarios en la zona mas de moda de la ciudad, de donde se puede ir andando a todos los lugares y puntos de interés. El anfitrión ademas de amable y atento a todos los detalles, nos dio una explicación única de la ciudad y todo lo que hacer en ella, como un freetour pero ma cercano :D hasta nos dio un mapa con toas las anotaciones hechas por el. Dispone de garaje aparate a 5 minutos para dejar el coche (que no necesitaras para visitar la ciudad). 10/10
