About this property

GuestReady - São Domingos Apartments

The six “São Domingos” apartments are located at the end of “Rua das Flores”, less than 150 meters from Ribeira, the typical and famous area by the River Douro. Each apartment is fully equipped, including air conditioning and windows with thermal and acoustic insulation. There is a flight of stairs up to the first floor.

“The Square” is one of these apartments, named after “São Domingos” Square itself and a painting of a renowned Portuguese artist showing the view from the window. The apartment has more than 90 square meters, is on the first floor of the building, and can accommodate up to six adults. It has two independent bedrooms (one with a queen-size bed, the other with a walk-in closet), one full bathroom, a separate WC, a sitting room with a balcony overlooking the Square, a flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchenette, a sofa that can be turned into a comfortable bed to accommodate two extra people, a table for meals, as well as other amenities. A baby cot can be provided upon request.

Guests have access to the entire apartment.

We are GuestReady, a property manager, and we want to ensure your stay will be as smooth and comfortable as possible. We are available 24/7 should you need any assistance during your stay. Kindly note that this is a personal home so please take good care of it as if it was your own.

The area surrounding the apartments is well served by restaurants, cafés, hotels and shops. There are many monuments, buildings and other interesting spots to visit, as well as traditional street animation, music and other shows to be enjoyed. From here one can easily get to other main areas of Oporto by foot, bus, tram or metro, the latter from the nearby iconic “São Bento” train station.

There are two car parks nearby, one on Rua Ferreira Borges (about 150 meters) and the other one on Rua Trindade Coelho - Parque das Cardosas (about 300 meters) , both paid for. In the street / public road the cost will be lower, but it is more difficult to park and the parking is limited in duration.

The Portuguese immigration services (SEF) requires all non-Portuguese guests to fill in a form with some personal data (ID number, nationality, etc.). This form will be sent to you through a certified program or given to you at the check-in. Before your check-in we will send you your pick-up keys and check-in options. Please note that personal check-in with a concierge has a cost of 10€, pending on availability. There is a zero-tolerance policy for smoking in the property. If our team discovers any evidence that this rule has been breached (e.g., smoke smell, ashes, butts, etc.) we fully reserve the right to charge a €200 smoking fee, at minimum. For the first days we provide the basic amenities: samples of shower gel, shampoo, soap, toilet paper, kitchen roll, sponge, dishwashing products ,bin bag., Teabags, and coffee capsules. Please note that for stays longer than 30 nights a fair use policy of the utilities will apply with a limit of 80€ included.

Customer service and misleading listing

VRBO lists the property as having a washing machine. Upon arrival, no washing machine so we reached out to the property manager who was not very helpful. At first I'm told I'm mistaken in that it was a dishwasher. When I sent her a screenshot of the listing clearly listing the washing...crickets ( over 4 hrs before a reply) in which she blames VRBO for not updating the listing and then the next day sends me a link to the same property listing on other sites and tells me that is the updated listing. At the end of the day, it does not matter who's mistake it was, the issue was that nothing was being done to help the situation. We under packed thinking we will be doing laundry when we go to porto but that all fell apart. 1. ask them send a picture of the back courtyard ( it will give you nightmare ) 2. bathroom has mold and the cabinets are falling apart. 3. razor thin walls from the floor updastairs ( better hope a quiet group is staying upstairs ) 4. asked for laundry services ( because of the misleading lsiting ) and was told by the person to google the area for laundry services. Overall - a great area but a horrible place to stay and the non existent customer service. Read all the reviews, it will give you a good amount of information before you ruin your stay in beautiful Porto

Nice Porto taster

The flat was very comfortable and clean. The bedrooms were quiet, but the main room overlooked a busy square, which could be noisy. It was not something that bothered us, as we were either out or simply soaking up atmosphere. The whole stay was very easy and straightforward.

great location, ok apt with slightly outdated bathroom

the apartment was in a great, central location. the bathroom was slightly outdated, and only had enough hot water for a single 10-15 min shower every hour. this was an issue as we are a family of 5. when I called for help they just said I had to not have more than one person take a shower in any given hour. not great with 3 kids. did come with daily maid service though
