Amazing views of Porto, perfect location to walk

Lovely studio apartment. Amazing views of Porto that cannot be beat. easily walkable to everything needed. Would highly recommend for a stay.

Great location

The location is absolutely great, super close to the lovely restaurants in the area. The place is well equipped as far as I could tell but we didn't use the kitchen. There's a bit of noise at night due to the same reason but all in all a great place to stay. The view at night is simply breathtaking. Just make sure you close the blinds or there's a street light just outside the window that'll simply blind you if you'll pardon the pun. Having access to off street parking also really sold the place!

Thank you Elizabeth!

From the first communication with Elizabeth everything was a breeze. We communicated easily on whatsapp. The home is absolutely beautiful with gorgeous balcony views of the river and the bridge. She provided us with a delicious fruit platter and sent us tips on what to do and restaurants to go to. We also received complementary drinks on arrival at their restaurant where we were able to drink our drinks along the river. We had the best time in Porto! Thank you so so much Elizabeth! Highly highly recommend this place!
