Douro River Lighthouse Tours and Activities

This was an excellent choice to stay in Porto! The location was excellent for walking to the market and much of the historic district. Rita was so helpful for getting us all checked in with our group's different arrival times.

Beware! The place is as wonderfully stylish as the pictures suggest. But it was INFESTED with ants! They were crawling over every part of the apartment, not just the kitchen - the living room, the bedrooms (they were crawling all over the duvets), and in the master bedroom especially, where they swarmed across the floor. In the master bathroom there was a rotting wood plank by the shower - you had only to step on this for dozens of ants to come boiling out. We asked to be put in a different room, but they were sold out. Instead, they purchased bug spray from the grocery store next door and told us to leave the room for 4 hours while they doused the surfaces and had house cleaning come in. This was extremely inconvenient as we were travelling with tired children. When we returned to the flat, the ants were gone, but by the next morning they were starting their slow return. We asked to be compensated and were denied. We left early. Don’t be taken in by the gorgeous pictures. This was not sanitary. Would not recommend!
