Neighborhood Overview
The neighborhood of Lapa is charming and ideal for those looking to stay overnight or live very close to the historical city center but also in a quiet place near the authentic side of Porto. In the center, near the metro station, at only 15 minutes walk from downtown but far from the prices, crowds and nocturnal confusion of the “Porto movida”, there are still some old ladies who go to church, the young, anxious and smiling or the grandfathers with their berets in the local cafes. Its most important era began with the construction of the Church of Lapa. Rococo and neoclassical building, the Church of Our Lady of Lapa began to be built in 1756 and finished in 1863. Beginning only with a Church, were added a College Seminary, a cemetery, and later, at the beginning of the twentieth century, a hospital. Inside the church, the pipe organ is one of its most impressive pieces, but one of the main attractions of the church is the heart of King Pedro IV, who, since 1837, has been inside an al

Super appartement Très bien situé Très bon séjour
Jun 27, 2019L'appartement est bien situé, rénové il y a peu et fonctionnel. Facile d'accéder aux principaux sites depuis celui-ci, quartier calme. Accueil sympathique et efficace.
Jun 27, 2019DESASTROSA. Desde luego NUNCA repetiría una estancia en este apartamento. Reservamos un apartamento para 3 personas pero con capacidad máxima para 4 y una vez aquí solo teníamos ropa de cama y toallas para 2 personas, alegando que la reserva era para 1 huésped, (cabe destacar que el día de la reserva mandamos un (Hidden by Airbnb) para confirmar los datos, mensaje que no fue contestado por el apartamento). Nos dijeron que si queríamos ropa de cama y toallas tendríamos que pagar 20€ y serían llevadas al apartamento en 30minutos. Una vez pagado y dado el retraso con el que se nos entregaron las llaves (no debían esperar que en un fin de semana de Agosto hubiese gente porque el motivo del atraso fue exceso de entradas) decidimos dejar de perder el tiempo y dar una vuelta, esperando, tal y como dijo el chico que entregó las llaves que nos hubiesen llevado todo lo que faltaba a nuestra vuelta. Evidentemente esto no fue así , mandamos otro (Hidden by Airbnb) quejándonos de la situación, mensaje del que aún hoy esperamos respuesta. Por otro lado, la referencia céntrica del apartamento no es real, se encuentra en un barrio bastante cutre de la ciudad y para llegar al centro se debe caminar unos 30 minutos. Por último, con respecto al mensaje, probablemente automático, en el que te dicen que te darán toda la información que necesites a cerca de Oporto es otra falsa. Nosotros solicitamos información sobre un parking donde guardar el coche y el chico que vino no tuvo ni media idea de como indicarnos. La única reseña de Oporto que nos dio fue la de un buen restaurante que no apareció. En conclusión , creo que el comportamiento del apartamento ha sido INADMISIBLE y LAMENTABLE pues lo único que ha hecho ha sido robarnos 20€. HORRIBLE. We would never repit our visit to this apartment. We had booked one apartment for 3 people in one apartment witch maximun capacity was for 4 people and when we arrived , we only had towels and bed clothes for 2 people. The gay that gave as the keys told as that we made the reservation for 1 person and that if we wanted to have extra clothes we had to pay 20€. Althought we had sent a (Hidden by Airbnb) with the characteristics of our booked and they never answered it, we decided to pay and stopped loosing our time. We were going to have a walk around the city and someone would bring us what we paid. When we arrived in the night none had brought us the clothes and we sent them another (Hidden by Airbnb) with no answer. On the other hand, the apartment is a little bit far for city center, no in the heart of the city as they describe. At last but not least, the person who gives the keys has no idea of simple things like where to find a Car Park near the apartment. He only tourist información he gave us was The...
Jun 27, 2019Appartement propre et cosy, similaire aux photos. Si jamais le wifi ne fonctionne pas, n'hésitez pas à débrancher et rebrancher le plug dans l'appartement (il fonctionne très bien dans les escaliers, un peu moins dans l'appartement)
Jun 27, 2019Nous avons eu le plaisir de partager ce petit nid à 3 lors de notre séjour à Porto. L'appartement est ultra fonctionnel, propre, le petit balcon est superbe. Nous avons été accueillis comme de vrais clients d'hôtel... Je recommande sans hésiter.
Jun 27, 2019Beautiful flat in the great area.
Jun 27, 2019L'appartamento è esattamente come descritto, molto pulito ed accogliente. L'unico svantaggio della cosa è forse la gestione che essendo fatta da un'agenzia perde un po di autenticità, una delle cose che apprezzo di più di airbnb è un proprietario disponibile e che ha anche tempo di condividere qualche parola con i suoi host. In questo caso la gestione è sicuramente precisa ma molto frettolosa, molto più simile a quella di un ostello o di un hotel. Nonostante questo consiglio l'appartamento!!
Jun 27, 2019Annabela tres sympathique et accueillante avec de gentilles attentions pour notre arrivee. Tres bon emplacement pour nous car rue facile pour stationner et coeur de Porto a 20 min a pied. Quartier tres accueillant.
Jun 27, 2019El apartamento está tal cual se ve en las fotos.
