Ceiling fans would be greatWe are unaccustomed to windows without screens but this is typical on Europe. It can get buggy and the mosquitos can be annoying while sleeping. The host was very responsive when we had some questions/small issues - nothing too serious.The view is astounding from the unit and it is accessible to everything!Easy to get Bolt rides - WiFi is fineWe recommend getting a ride to the unit - we walked from the metro and it was tricky to find.Overall - it was ideal! Loved being next to the church!We had a kitty visitor one night - just passing thru.Beautiful view of the Douro river & Porto ! ##### Jeanne M. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jack P.
