The Fanfare

This apartment places guests in the heart of Porto's Cedofeita district, with its vintage shops, authentic eateries, and hip bars. While not packing much punch in the personality department, it's a fuss-free option for a city break – it's centrally located, and the balcony is a nice touch on sunny days. The kitchen could be bigger, but it's got just enough space to rustle up breakfast before heading out. And speaking of exploring, you'll be well-connected here. The nearest metro station is a three-minute walk, and the nearest train station is only eleven minutes away.

Home truths:
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay. *This home was purpose-built for rentals, so it's not the most soulful or charming space. *This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay. *If you're travelling for work, you won't find a dedicated desk here. However, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace. *The shower pressure here isn't the strongest. We also think the bathroom could do with a refresh as it's looking a little tired. *You'll need to pick up the keys from the host's office.
