Pros:

Vintage e fuori dall'ordinario. Una casa vera. Ana gradevole e molto ospitale

Cons:

Qualche difetto facilmente rimediabile, una sedia e un tavolino in più farebbero comodo

We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Porto. Anna, thank you so much!
Pros:

An absolutely stunning house. It felt more like staying in a museum than a holiday home — except it was one you could actually live in. The atmosphere is truly special.

The host was incredibly kind and welcoming. We especially loved the cozy backyard, where we enjoyed breakfast every morning.

The ocean is less than a five-minute walk away. I’m convinced this is the best place to stay in Porto.

The house with character and authenticity.
Pros:

I liked its interior design which was well-thought of by the host. Art deco lamps , authentic wooden window shutters and wooden floor.The room was spacious with a very comfortable bed with lovely woolly blanket. The shower cabin was also spacious with a very good quality shower itself. The hairdryer was excellent.

Cons:

At first the room seemed a bit too dark but with all lighting on seemed very atmospheric.

Ce nést pas ce que j'appele un Alojamento Local.
Pros:

le situation est ideale.

Cons:

l'acceuil. Nous avons dû attendre sur le trottoir que notre hôte arrive.
La propreté aussi bien dans la chambre, que dans la salle de bain commune alors qu'il était indiqué salle de bain privative.
La cuisine et salle commune encombrées et même bordélique.

It was ok
Pros:

We liked the small patio, great towels, good pillows. Close to the beach. Host was friendly.

Cons:

The door lock to the room was difficult to open. Once inside the room, the door would not completely close.

Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.
Pros:

Zeer vriendelijke gastvrouw, unieke vintage inrichting met bijzondere kunstwerken van de gastvrouw, mooie tuin.

Cons:

Ik had een kamer aan de straatkant en dat gaf toch wel wat geluid van voorbijgaand verkeer ondanks de luiken die je kan sluiten.
