Great Spot in Porto

We had 3 wonderful nights in Porto. Carlos was very responsive and gave us lots of information about the city. The kitchen was well equipped. The location is about a 15 minute walk to the downtown core of the city. Would recommend this place to stay.

Convenient stay in Porto

We had a great stay in Porto, Carlos was a very accommodating host. The location is great, we were about a 10-15 minute walk to most of the sights around historic Porto and close to the metro for anywhere else we wanted to go. Apartment is well kept and in a quiet neighborhood.

Beautiful apartment!

This is a very clean and well equipped studio apartment. It is quiet, but easy walking distance to the sights downtown. Carlos was very welcoming, and gave us lots of good information on what to do, and how to get there. Only one flight up, and great balconies!

Our stay Oct 2024

The unit smelled of mold. The shower was actually moldy on the floor because it leeks. The bed was okay. The unit is very small. The balcony is really not somewhere you would sit kinda dirty. Location was okay close to most things to walk to. We would not stay there again.

Relaxing stay

This apartment was perfect for my daughter and myself. We were only spending 3 days in Porto and the coziness of the apartment was perfect for us. I especially enjoy a balcony so that was a perk for me. The location was perfect for walking around the center of the city. Plus, it was very close to two train stations. Our host was absolutely the best. We easily communicated with him through the Vrbo app and WhatsApp. We arranged to meet at the apartment and he was very helpful. He also provided us with a walking map and great suggestions for where to eat and what to visit in the city. I loved our stay and highly recommend.

Adorable, Clean, Great Location, Amazing Host

I spent 4 nights in Porto at Carlos’ studio apartment. It was adorable, clean, cutely decorated and in an amazing location. I could walk everywhere I wanted to go. Carlos was an amazing host, very quick to respond to messages before and during my stay. He met me with the keys and patiently talked me through the full map of Porto circling all of the key attractions and offering restaurant suggestions. He was an amazing host. The apartment was super cute, great bedding, had everything I needed to cook and enjoy my time here. If I find myself back in Porto, I will absolutely stay at Carlos’ sunny house with its shutters and cute balcony. Hands down the best communication of any vrbo experience I have had! Thanks Carlos!!

Studio sympa

Charmant petit appartement, propre et à 20 mn du centre. Très bonne communication avec l’hôte. Quelques bémols : nous avons été gênés par les bruits du logement au dessus (craquements du plancher dûs aux bruits de pas dans la nuit), obligés de monter sur une chaise pour utiliser la vaisselle très en hauteur. De plus, la cabine de douche est " vieillotte".
