Neighborhood Overview
Rua de Santa Catarina, a commercial artery 1500 meters long, is Porto’s main shopping centre. This street is absurdly stylish and romantic, with trim boutiques, striped stone footpaths and animated crowds. It's home to Porto's most ornate tearoom, the art nouveau Café Majestic, and the extraordinary azulejo-bedecked Capela das Almas. You will find most international shops, but if you venture in the small side alleys on both sides of the street, you will find many traditional shops. You might as well not even try to resist the mouth-watering pâtisseries and do not resist the bread either because Portuguese bread is an experience! You’ll go back for more… Try "A Perola do Bolhão" a grocery store at Rua Formosa, 279 or the Arcadia bakery at Rua do Almada, 63. And while you are in a shopping mode, try one of the shoe shops to get something comfortable because we are going to take you places with this guide ! Next to the Rua de Santa Catarina, you will find Mercado do Bolhão, a typical mark

Estupendo. Muy limpio y bien comunicado
Jun 27, 2019발코니 뷰 보고 엄청 끌려서 예약했는데 그것만으로도 충분히 만족했어요. 호스트도 엄청 친절하고 위치도 다운타운이 위치해있어서 어디를 가던지 편하게 걸어서만으로도 이동 가능합니다. 오래 머물러서 한국 음식이 그리웠는데 주볌에 엄청 가까운 아시안 상점에서 라면도 쉽게 얻을 수 있고 괜찮은 레스토랑 그리고 현지 마켓도 다 엄청 가까이 일어서 지리적으로도 최고였어요. 무엇보다도 집이 엄청 깔끔하고 요리할 때 필요한 도구들도 다 구비되어있습니다. 조용히 호텔방 처럼 지내고싶으다면 좀 더 저렴한 가격으로 머물수있는 느낌? 포르투를 더 그리워하게 만들어줄 숙소였습니다
Jun 27, 2019Great flat, perfectly equipped in a really handy location. We were met at the flat and shown around and they were very happy to offer local recommendations for where to eat etc which was great when arriving late.
Jun 27, 2019Muito bom e ótima localização
Jun 27, 2019Gustavo’s flat is right out of an IKEA catalog! Really clean, well equipped and comfortable space with everything you’d want without missing your amenities at home. It’s located on the famous Via Catarina street less than 500ft away from the Bolhão metro station (which has a direct line to the airport). The only times we took the local metro was to get to and back from Campañha station to get to Lisbon. Everywhere else is walkable. Elisa was our hostess and she was incredible. I asked her recommendations for good Pastel de Nata that wasn’t too sweet (and similar to the Pasteis de Belém found in Belém) and she not only recommend a place but she also brought us a box to try which was so incredibly thoughtful and sweet. I loved it so much that I went back to that place several times and bought some back home with me. She also walked us through the apartment and had recommendations for local markets and stuff. I wish more hosts on Airbnb are as personable and hospitable like the BnBird team!
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is really amazing! Location, service and communication is perfect! I can recomment this place for a stay of 3 days of even longer. I really felt me at home for the 2 weeks I stayed. Porto is great and you guys are making it even more comfortable! And thanks for the bottle of wine :) It was a really good one! Hope to stay in your apartment again soon!
Jun 27, 2019Recomiendo a todo el mundo este alojamiento, ya que para mi ha sido uno de los mejores en los que he estado hasta el momento. Nos sentimos como en casa, y destacaría la ubicación, que no puede ser mejor, así como la limpieza y decoración del apartamento. También agradezco a los anfitriones la buena comunicación que tuvimos, ya que el día de entrada en el apartamento estuvieron en contacto en todo momento para podernos recibir. Y me encantó el detalle que tuvieron de dejarnos una botella de vino! Además, durante el viaje nos mandaron consejos sobre restaurantes y lugares que visitar.
Jun 27, 2019Great location and close to many shops, restaurants and bars. Great for sightseeing and there is a train station less than 3 minutes walk from the apartment. The apartment is beautiful and cosy.... very clean and comfortable, I couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay in Porto.... I will definitely be returning, thank you ❤️.
Jun 27, 2019숙소는 쇼핑 거리인 산타카타리나 끝쪽에 위치해있어요. 딱 사진 그대로고 정말 깔끔하고 아기자기한 숙소에요! 첨에 들어오면 계단 하나 오른후에 엘베 있어요. 숙소는 엘베 타고 3층이에요. 발코니뷰 너무 예쁘고 집 바로 앞에 유명한 나타 가게 하나 있어요~ 볼량역에선 약 2분 소요되구요. 쇼핑하기엔 최적이에요 ㅋㅋ 상벤투역까지는 설렁설렁 가면 15분정도 걸리는 것 같아요. 집근처에 임시볼량시장과 스타벅스도 있어요. 히베이라 광장이랑은 은근 멀지만 나름의 매력이 있는 장소라고 생각해요! 그리고 우버가 저렴해서 귀찮으면 택시타고 잘 다님. . 혼자 조용히 지내기에 최적이에요! 10일동안 묵었기 때문에 여분의 수건을 요청했는데 흔쾌히 몇장 더 주셨구요, 일정 중간에 침구도 한번 갈아주었어요! 설명된 모든 것들이 구비되어있구요. 특히 추운데 거실 난방&침대방 난방 둘다 있는게 짱이었어요. (라디에이터 아니고 에어컨처럼생긴거임) 향기도 좋아요. ㅠㅠ 호스트가 사업자로 움직이는 것 같은데, 그래서인지 매우 체계적으로 운영되고 있어요. 이 호스트의 다른 숙소도 괜찮을 것이라고 생각됩니다. 체크아웃 시간 말했더니 그때즈음에 청소하시는 분들 두 분이 오셨더라구요, 관리 잘 되는 것 같아요:) 커뮤니케이션 무척 잘 되어요! 호스팅해준 분이랑 (Hidden by Airbnb) 으로 연락했는데 중간중간 챙겨줬어요. 전 일정 후에 CP 타고 리스본으로 이동했는데 볼량역에서 캄파냐역으로 바로 갈 수 있어요. (전 늦어서 우버 탔지만..) 리스본 가실 분들 고려할 수 있어요. 전체적으로 만족합니다! 고마워요 Elisa&Bnbird!
Jun 27, 2019Recomendo! Casa numa localização óptima e com todas as comodidades necessárias para passar uns dias. A Elisa foi de uma simpatia extrema e sempre contactável. Quando regressar ao Porto será a primeira opção certamente.
Jun 27, 2019A neat and clean apartment, centrally located. Has all amenities. Highly recommended
Jun 27, 2019Excelente localização, muito central! Espaco ok para um casal. Apartamento com muito boas instalações. Para quem chega de carro no horário comercial, notar que deve rapidamente descarregar as malas na esquina da rua de Santa Catarina com rua da Firmeza. Por sinal, não tivemos problema em conseguir estacionamento proximo, ao final de cada dia, na rua ou em estacionamento público (pagos). Em suma, gostamos muito!
Jun 27, 2019房源地點非常棒,離到機場的地鐵站很近,鄰近景點都在走路可到的範圍,非常方便。負責接待的人員很熱心親切,我們比原本約定抵達時間早到,Liliana也很配合的趕過來幫我們開門,並提供了很多有用的旅遊、餐飲建議,更熱心的在短時間內幫我們訂了new year eve的餐廳!
Jun 27, 2019I stayed 4 nights in the apartment. It is so conveniently located as I didn’t need to use the metro at all as most spots are located within a 15-20 mins walking distance. And I also have access to everything around the apartment (shopping, restaurants, groceries etc.) The apartment is so new, clean with a modern design and exactly as described in the pictures. It is well equipped with everything I need. There is an elevator too, although you need to take around 10-15 steps up the stairs before reaching it, it was so helpful as my luggage was 30+kg! The host was extremely friendly welcoming me even before I arrived at Porto, giving me the tips on arrival, greeting me at and showing me and introducing around the apartment . She also sent me some local tips and when I had questions, she replied promptly with detailed guidance. I am very grateful for the accommodation and it was definitely a memorable part of my journey. I would definitely recommended this to everyone visiting Porto.
Jun 27, 2019Beautiful apartment, very comfortable bed, great location, welcoming host.
