The host, Diogo and Vitor, were both kind and friendly. We were very grateful for their hospitality. The price was so reasonable. The bed was great, which provided me with a great sleep during my stay. When traveling, I value the quality of bed very much.

Good thing about this property is location. Bad and mattress not great ( almost terrible), apartment wasn’t clean properly from previous occupants. There was a dirty soup in the bathroom left in the shower and rubbish bin hasn’t been emptied so we are assuming that the rest of the things in the bathroom and toilet were not cleaned. I would not recommend this apartment for someone who’s visiting Porto.

The location is great, right in the heart of the old town, directly overlooking the cathedral. Sadly, our bathroom was not very clean, as well as marked curtains and marks on the mirror that hadn’t been cleaned off. We also had very sloped ceilings so don’t book the top floor if you’re tall!! The staff team very polite.

Excellent location and very cool renovation of the building. I only wish they kept the place a bit cleaner but slow communication was the biggest problem.

The apartment is very well located for tourist attractions and is next to the cathedral and tourist office. Fortunately the bells stop overnight! It's only 5 minutes from the metro station which links to the airport. Communication from the management was exceptionally clear and helpful. Our room was clean, modern and large enough for 2 people. My wife appreciated the privacy of the bathroom, behind 2 thick doors.

We loved our stay here. The staff were very helpful even before we arrived. The accommodation is situated in a central location of this beautiful city. The accommodation had everything we needed and was very clean. We were located on the top floor without a lift (we knew when we booked), however the climb was not a problem for us. Would highly recommend.
