Very friendly desk staff and our apartment was beautiful with the view of the river. Close to all the restaurants and Port Houses and the bridge to walk over to Porto. My only complaint was we thought we had a room with breakfast included. It was sent to our room on the first morning, but way too much food for two people - and when we checked out, found out it was 20 Euros each! Thankfully we had said to not give it for the remaining days or we really would have been upset.

The apartment is nicely appointed for our 4 night stay. The views from our room were stunning! We had easy access to cross over to Porto on the Don Luis bridge and our location had many restaurants and wine cellers in the immediate area.
