My stay was great. The last night was a bit bothersome as the 3rd floor new comers made noise at 2am and woke me up. The stairs are a bit inconvenient as they are high & narrow stairs and also a bunch of bags at the bottom which made it hard to get luggage up and down the stairs.

The view alone is worth the price. Great location with walking distance to attractions and the riverside walk. Owners are super kind with quick responses and the room was very clean. I'd not hesitate to book here again for my next visit to Porto.

Great location. Host messed up with the parking, so I needed to pay when it should have been free.

What makes this property is the location. We stayed on the first floor and the view from the kitchen window is great. Very walkable to restaurants, shops, wine cellars, etc. The steps are steep, the door is narrow and the shower is minuscule but that’s all ok and worth it. Would recommend and stay again if coming back to Oporto.

We enjoyed the view and location was great! Jorge was quick to respond with any questions. Older building stairs leading to apart are very narrow, high and dirty. Hard to take luggage up. Once in apartment was ok.

I enjoyed my time here. Although there are pros and cons… Pros first: great location, fantastic post card view from the kitchen and bath area, spacious space, good communication with the host. Cons: no elevators with steep stairs. Carpet is truly nasty looking. I hope they would invest in better flooring. It would make a big difference in this space.

This property was very well positioned in a great location with walking distance to upper and lower Porto. It had an amazing view of the Duoro River and came with its own parking spot. The building was very old and the entrance was very difficult to enter. We had to climb up three flights of very narrow and dangerous stairs and there was an unpleasant odor in the hallway going up to the apartment. Once you enter the apartment it was fairly clean however you noticed how small it was as the bed barely fit into the room. The bathroom definitely required some maintenance as there appeared to be some black mold in the shower or “black silicone” which was mentioned by the owner when we reached out to them regarding our concerns after our stay. The entire unit did smell like sewage, which may be from the underlining pipes in the bathroom however, we are not sure where the smell came from. When we reached out to the owners regarding our concerns after our stay, we were basically informed that these standards are not up to “American” standards because of how tight it was and that we should have known this would be the case due to the history regarding Porto and the building status.

The apartment offers a beautiful view of the river and has plenty of space. However, the staircase is very unsafe, especially when carrying luggage.

The location was great, it’s right at the center of Riberia for a fraction of the price. A plus for having available parking to drop off the car and walk everywhere! It’s perfect for the location. The room needs a little update, perhaps the carpet needs to go, otherwise it was great !

Great location. Short walk to Luis I bridge and boardwalk restaurants. Our 2nd floor apartment had great views of the river. Noise level from the street below was significant pretty much the entire night. The road is the only access point for the Luis I bridge, so there are many buses and cars going by at all hours. If you're a light sleeper, ear plugs are a must. Apartment was spacious enough for the two of us. Stairs are steep and treads are narrow. I would not recommend for guests with heavy luggage. We also had a problem with the parking pass. The instructions stated the pass would be in the lock box. It was not. We immediately contacted Jorge by phone and text and got no response. This was on Friday night at around 7 PM. We followed the instructions and parked rhe car in the nearby lot (we had reserved parking with Jorge prior to our arrival) and explained to the attendant the next morning (Saturday) when we departed that we had reserved parking but did not have a pass. Fortunately, they let us go without having to pay. On Saturday morning we got what looked like an automated message from Jorge wishing us a pleasant stay and saying that he would not be 'bothering us with more messages.' He clearly had not seen our urgent message the night before. After we had left, he finally messaged us, saying that the previous guest must have taken the pass and not returned it. Not sure I buy that, though. The cleaning crew should have checked for the pass.

Everything was great except too wordy instructions to enter into the apartment. If you have a car to park and unload luggage it is very hard because you just have to park on the road without any shoulders, hardly impossible to think to park there for a minute. If you use public transportation, this is a great place to stay. Good location, great view, very clean. Bathroom shower door need to be fixed. Every time you shower, water is all over the floor.

Le meilleur logement possible sur Porto!!

Nous ne pouvions pas rêver mieux! Un logement super bien placé, du côté de toutes les quinta pour ceux qui aiment deguster les porto. A moins de 5 minutes à pied de la vieille ville de Porto. Et une vue extrorinaire sur la ville, depuis la fenêtre!! Incroyable!! Sans oublier que tout est présent dans l'appartement ! Il sent bon, c'est confortable, la literie est excellente (et je suis exigente sur ce point), c'est propre, joli! Bref! Parfait! Le seul micro bémol est que c'est un peu bruyant, en raison de travaux dans l'immeuble à côté et le tramway sur le pont de fer Luis I. Mais avec des bouchons d'oreilles, je n'ai rien entendu!!^^

ドウロ川と歴史地区を一望できる最高のロケーション。朝昼晩と刻々と変わる景色のグラデーションを楽しめます。施設入り口から部屋までの狭くて急勾配の階段は、スーツケースを持ち上がるのに大きなパワーが必要で、女性には多少難しい可能性を含みます。ただそれ以上に素晴らしい景色が待っています。

Overall, great stay. Top notch communication from the start. The apartment was cozy and comfortable and amazingly located. 5 mins walk to anything and everything. The view was incredible out of the kitchen window. We loved it.

The third floor apartment has quite possibly the most amazing view from any property I've stayed at in 20 years of international travel. The apartment is in an amazing location, just minutes from the Av. de Diogo Leite on the south bank of the Douro River and all of its restaurants and Port bars. The apartment has everything one would need including small kitchen. The apartment is small, suitable to only two people at most. As mentioned in other reviews, the stairs to the top are steep and narrow, something to keep in mind if mobility and/or heavy luggage are an issue
