Porto View by Patio 25

The apartment’s location was handy for sightseeing, and having access to the parking garage was a real plus. I’m sure the upper apartments are nice, but our studio was very dark and smelled strongly of open sewage. The dampness made it worse, and I was glad to leave. There was a lot of foot traffic past the door and the only window, so opening either for light and air felt awkward. I thought we’d be able to use the terrace, but the apartment said we could and the bar said we couldn’t. It turned out to be an overpriced bar, not an apartment terrace.

Cute, clean apartment with a lovely view of the bridge and city. Just be aware that a big van won’t fit in the parking, so you’ll need to park elsewhere. The route up to the apartment is quite a climb with large suitcases.

The apartment was comfortable, clean, and had comfortable, clean bedding. It’s by the river, with wine houses, restaurants, and markets nearby, and it was easy to reach from the airport by metro. I was very pleased with the stay and would happily come back.

The location, service, and parking were all great. The room looked good at first, but after a closer look it felt like the details hadn’t been given much care. The kitchen cupboards were crooked, and there were issues with the lights, stair trim, and toilet seats too. For nearly 200 EUR for one night, I expected more attention to those things.
