The description is very accurate. The walls are very thin between apt and no insulation between floor and ceiling. Perfect location for a night or two

Super Location und sehr schöne Wohnung

Wir haben 2.5 Tage in Porto als Familie verbracht. So eine liebevoll eingerichtete Wohnung hatten wir schon lange nicht. Einfach toll an alles gedacht, sogar an Tupadosen. Julia ist einfach ein toller Host!!!!! Die Location ist auf der Gaia Seite, was uns besser als Porto Seite gefallen hat. 10 min von der Louis I Brücke. Nachmittag konnten wir uns etwas am Pool auf der Wiese entspannen und abends wieder flanieren. Einfach perfekt! Danke Julia!!!!! 🤗
