About this apartment rental

My apartment is located in one of the most beautiful and well-preserved buildings on the block.
The apartment is virtually intact in the style of the 1930s, but with all modern amenities.
The furniture is from the same period, in order to create a consistent atmosphere.
It's an apartment of approximately 120 square meters, located on one of the most central streets in downtown Porto, just a few meters from the city's main shopping street. I would also like to mention that the Porto municipality charges €3 per night for each guest aged 12 and over, for stays of up to 7 consecutive nights, payable in cash to the host during the stay. This fee is mandatory.

Great location and clean place unfortunately very loud neighbour's at night. I would recommend earplugs.

The apartment is in a very convenient location; far enough from the busiest streets that it stays relatively quiet, but close enough to walk everywhere. It’s the perfect spot to start exploring the city and eventually make your way down to Gaia.The apartment itself was an absolute dream. It’s incredibly charming, beautifully decorated, and full of character. I wished I could live there & loved every second of my stay.Sofia was also wonderful and very responsive whenever I had questions.The apartment was clean, including the floors, bathrooms, sheets, and living spaces. One thing to note is that, because it’s a very old building, it can be a bit dusty. If you have asthma or are sensitive to dust, I’d recommend bringing your inhaler just in case. Other than that, we had a fantastic stay and would happily return.

Quaint apartment. Very old but unique. Comfortable beds. Host is just lovely and very helpful. Very small kitchen but has everything you need for a small cook up. TIPS: Just some info for guests - 2nd floor apartment with stairs, no lift. Parking is available in a car park around the corner, ask the host for information. Busy street but quiet at night. No air con but fans provided and you can open the windows. Close to everything, walkable distances. Some noise from neighbours but quiet at night.

The apartment is in a convenient location walkable to most areas of historic Porto. The VRBO description is accurate as the apartment is a time capsule. The showers were super and bathrooms were clean. My only suggestion is a couple of chairs in the living room should be replaced, but we truly appreciated the charm of this vintage apartment.
