Excellent Accomadation
The property was in an excellent location and immaculately clean. Tastefully furnished and with a balcony overlooking the rear of the property. It was very quiet at night and we had no issues with noise from neighbours. Two bathrooms really enhances the property’s appeal as did effective air conditioning. The breakfast from the cafe below was fantastic and the communication before and during our stay was very helpful. We loved Porto and would stay in the apartment again if we return. Thankyou

Honeymoon in Porto!
From the time I inquired about the property, the communication was excellent! The apartment was above a bakery in a great location and we walked everywhere. Such friendly people all around and felt very safe. The host arranged travel arrangements from train station and later to airport as well which very helpful.

Fantastic location
The location of this property is perfect for easy access to the main attractions in old Porto. The third floor apartment is roomy and gets great natural light. It is superficially clean, but could use a deep clean. Everything in it worked well and met our needs. We didn't meet the hosts, but they were in easy reach by phone. Finding the property was a bit difficult- it seemed the address we were given was for the whole block? A photo of the street entry door (which is quite small and not very obvious) would be helpful. Previous reviews mentioned a pastry shop downstairs (which might have supplied breakfast to guests of the apartment?), but it is now closed and the first two floors of the building are being renovated. Noshi, a cafe next door, was a good place to go for food, we found. The renovation work was no problem for us during our stay. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay, and the location was just fantastic.

Fantastic Return Trip
This was our second stay in the guest house. The first stay was in Hungarian biscuits, which has a beautiful view over of the street and church. This time we stayed in the Egg Nuts apartment, which while it does not have the church view, is wonderfully appointed and has the benefit of having no noise from the square during busy nights. We are looking forward to our third return trip.

Parfait
L'appartement est conforme à l'annonce : hyper propre, lumineux et bien équipé. La vue extérieure n'est pas des plus avantageuse mais cela a le mérite de ne pas donner sur la rue passante. Nous avons très bien dormi. Le petit-déjeuner est absolument gargantuesque

Great choice for a stay in Porto
Check in was very easy and were welcomed by some treats from the bakery below which was very much appreciated 😊 Apartment is spotlessly clean and amenities as described in the listing. The owner is very helpful even arranging a very early morning transfer to the airport so we had one less thing to worry about. You are within walking distance to everything Porto has to offer! Highly recommend! Thank you!

Wonderful apartment in great location
Communication with host Elisa was excellent from the time of booking through our stay. Great, clean, spacious and well appointed apartment in a secure building. It has large and bright rooms and there are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. We arranged for train station pickup through our host. Buses are across the street. Strongly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Porto and would stay there again without a doubt. You won’t be disappointed booking Elisa’s place.

Wonderful Location and Hosts
We enjoyed our stay. Kind of fun having an apartment above a beautiful pastry shop in a terrific central location. Wonderful breakfast in the morning with friendly and communicative hosts. Our apartment windows faced the back of the property. Would have preferred facing the street and having a view of the beautiful Carmo church.

Location, location, location!
Great place to stay in Porto! Easy to take bus from airport, across the street from famous church, a few blocks to lello library, near irmandad dos clerigos and tower And the breakfasts! Downstairs pastry shop provides wonderful breakfasts that kept us going through a day of sightseeing. Bed is comfortable and shower good. Would recommend to anyone staying a few days in Porto. As noted in other reviews, no elevator and about 40 stairs so must have a level of fitness to carry bags up to apartment.

Wonderful stay
I loved this place and it was a joy to interact with the staff/owners. Elisa and Luis were perfect hosts. The location was great as I didn't want to stay in Ribeira (crowded). Torre dos Clérigos so close made it easy for a first-time tourist to find a way home. The space itself was big, clean, airy, simple in a good way, and had good vibes. Who doesn't want to stay above a pastry shop?! It was quiet with great A/C.

Perfect place to explore from
We stayed here with our in laws--each stacked above the others in three different apartments. All of us agreed that all three apartments were just perfect--clean, comfortable, cute, and had all the amenities you could wish for. Breakfast from the bakery was included and was very good. The day of our departure, we had no time to stay for breakfast as we had an early train to catch and Luis very kindly packed us some lovely pastries and juice to go. Overall top notch. We loved every second there. Elisa gives a wonderful warm welcome and can tell you anything you need to know!

Sweetest Porto Apartment
This apartment is truly directly above a very nice bakery. The breakfast that was provided during our stay was incredible. The apartment is in a very central location to the older Porto area. Close to Harry Potter library and to all of the restuarants and bars by the main bridge near the water. The host was responsive and communicated effectively. The listing was advertised with a sofa bed, however the sofa bed was replaced with a cot. The cot is more suitable for a child as opposed to an adult. So if travelling with three adults the cot may not work.
