Porto Pleasures

You can't fault the location of this smart downtown studio apartment. Set just a five-minute jaunt from Trindade Metro, travelling about Porto is a cinch, and the sights of the historic centre are within walking distance. Housed in a new-build apartment block, while the interiors are well-cared for, this isn't the most soulful of places. There's also no hob or oven to speak of in the compact kitchenette. But eating out is easy with buzzy tapas bars and traditional restaurants nearby.

Home truths:
*Construction work is ongoing in the building. Be prepared to experience some noise disturbance during the day.
*Your host owns multiple apartments in this building, so the exact view and furnishings may vary slightly from the photos.
*This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance and lift access.
*You’ll check into this home with a keypad and code.
*Your host asks you to respect quiet hours from 11pm to 7am.
*This home is short on hanging wardrobe space, so we'd recommend packing light.
*You won't find an oven or hob here. There's also only a mini fridge. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*The views from the apartment aren't overly inspiring.
