PortoSense Ribeira
Rua dos Mercadores, 3, União de Freguesias do Centro, 4050-375 Porto, Portugal – Excellent location – show map
This has to be one of the most beautiful holiday apartments I’ve ever rented. When you stand on the balcony you feel like the king of the world. The view is breathtaking, and fascinating , and endlessly changes throughout the day and the night. The square below does generate a little noise during the day and early evening, but it was quiet at night and we felt the sounds of music etc just added to the experience anyway. We often stay on the top floor of places for the view and so I’m used to stairs, but having a lift was very luxurious. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen was very usable. The shower was a bit awkward for the taller one of us, but for me at 1.68 m tall it was perfect! I just loved this stay, and the host, Cristina, was so kind and attentive Very highly recommended :)
