"The apartment is fantastic and in a great neighborhood, very secure buildingl Most importantly however, was the unbelievable service from Jose. We had driven our rental car into the heart of Porto (not recommended!), and because of the subway construction, many roads are blocked and we couldn't find the best way to apartment. Jose came to meet us a couple blocks away, drove us in our car to apartment. He even drove our rental car to return vehicle! Beyond the call of duty, Jose was amazing. Back...

"The apartment was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated. There were plenty of towels, and the cozy robes were nice to have. Barbara arranged transfers from the airport and met me at the door when I arrived. There was a large bowl of fresh fruit and welcome pastries. There was plenty of complimentary tea and coffee as well. We felt very welcome when we arrived. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were spacious. Barbara was prompt to answer any questions (via WhatsApp). The apartment...

"At arrival we got a very charming welcome by Barbara with helpful recommendations for our stay in Porto. Everything in the apartement was well arranged and in very good condition. We did not miss a thing, also the coffee tabs very immediately replaced when we ran out of them. The apartement was very proper and cleaned after the third day of our stay with towels changed. The apartement is perfectly located in the center of Porto. All spots are in few minutes walking distance, so there is no need...

"Excellent stay at the Porto River. The only mistake we made is NOT having them organize our taxi ride from the train. We took a taxi, but he wouldn't take us down to the river and we had to walk down the hill to the hotel. The hotel had offered, but we didn't think it was a big deal to have them order the taxi but it WAS. We had them order the taxi BACK to the station and it can come down to the entrance of the hotel so you don't have to lug your luggage!!! Otherwise, everything was great. ...

"This was an amazing “find”!! Situated within Porto’s famous historic district, you are steps away from terrific cafes, restaurants and popular attractions. The duplex is well-appointed with a modern kitchen, efficient air-conditioning, and scenic views of the Douro River and bridges! Marc (and Rita!) were wonderful hosts, and we look forward to our next visit back to Porto!"
