  • Reviewer: Annick

    Comments: L'appartement est très lumineux, très bien équipé. Très moderne. 2 vraies grandes chambres, 2 salles de bain et aussi 1 toilette sur la terrasse. Il dispose de suffisamment de vaisselle pour une famille. Il donne sur un grand jardin à l'arrière. Très calme. Situé à quelques minutes de plusieurs restaurants et à 5 minutes à pied du métro Trindade. Ana nous a donné plein d'informations utiles. Seul bémol, si je peux dire : contrairement au descriptif, il n'y a pas de machine à laver (mais il y a un lave-vaisselle). Cela devrait être rectifié dans la description. Logement à recommander sans hésitation.

  • Reviewer: Ainhoa

    Comments: El apartamento de Ana es incluso mejor de lo que reflejan las fotos. Las habitaciones son amplísimas y la zona de la cocina y salón es acogedora y práctica. Su ubicación es estratégica, alejada del bullicio y a poca distancia de los lugares de interés de la ciudad. Además está a menos de cinco minutos a pie de la estación de metro de Trindade, por la que pasan todas las líneas y tiene justo enfrente un supermercado. El recibimiento de Ana fue estupendo, nos explicó todo lo necesario de la casa y nos hizo sugerencias sobre qué lugares visitar en la ciudad. La comunicación con ella fue estupenda y estuvo disponible para nuestras consultas en todo momento. Sin duda una casa para repetir y recomendar

  • Reviewer: Pedro

    Comments: Excelente casa, ampla, luminosa, confortável, cuidado e limpa. Bem localizada.

  • Reviewer: ASim

    Comments: Ana is a very warming host. Her suite is very cozy, clean and near to the city center. Highly recommend. 五顆星推薦 Ana 的 BnB,她本身是位設計師,整體空間很有質感,很適合家庭或朋友一起出遊渡假的你(妳)。

    Comments: Rui nos recibió puntualmente y nos dio buenas indicaciones sobre qué hacer en Porto. La casa está muy bien situada, en una zona tranquila, a 5 minutos del centro y excelente para viajar con niños. Las habitaciones amplias y muy cómodas. Las camas excelentes para descansar bien después de un día de turismo. El salón amplio y muy confortable. Estuvimos muy a gusto y la recomendamos. Cómo único punto de mejora le faltan algunos útiles de cocina.

  • Reviewer: Rüdiger

    Comments: Das Appartement ist wunderschön eingerichtet. Die Lage ist hervorragend. Es handelt sich um eine rückwärtige Wohnung, deshalb ist sie - obwohl zentral gelegen - wunderbar ruhig, da alle Zimer nach hinten rausgehen. Die Tipps und Ratschläge die uns Nuria gegeben hat waren toll. Sie war auch jederzeit für uns ansprechbar. Die Wohnung ist uneingeschränkt weiter zu empfehlen.

    Comments: Old building which has been totally updated. Clean and beautiful place to stay which has been modernized.

  • Reviewer: Tim

    Comments: A great apartment, large well equipped, stylish.... close to Trinidade metro, which goes direct to airport

  • Reviewer: Ekin

    Comments: Casa Amarela is a great, renovated space close to the old town center of Porto as well as the river banks. It is in walking distance to a subway stop and there are many buses departing from right in front of the door. The two-story apartment is very spacious with a minimal clutter; but you can find all you need for a group of 4 or 6. There are two and a half bathrooms, a laundry machine, dishwasher and an induction cooktop, alongside an oven and a microwave; internet tv and a huge beautiful yard are great bonuses for sure. Nuria, our host, was very warm and welcoming. Check-in and check out were a breeze. More importantly Nuria provided many tips and suggestions to visit around town. It was like having a private tour guide to take a virtual trip around town. We visited most of her suggested places and definitely enjoyed all of them. One small issue is the humidity, especially downstairs, but nothing a cheap humidifier can't fix, if the host decided to get one. Both I and my family would love to visit and stay with Casa Amarela again in the future.

    Comments: Great place and location. Many places around the property. Good stay.

  • Reviewer: Monique

    Comments: The appartment is very modern and clean! It’s in a nice neighbourhood. The host is easy to reach and very attentive!

  • Reviewer: Charline

    Comments: Very welcoming and flexible host. The house was great with a very nice terrace. Good location easy to find.

  • Reviewer: Maritina

    Comments: We stayed 4 people (two couples) for three nights . It is ideal as it has two different spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. The flat is sunny, equipped modernly and decorated with good taste. It also has a big patio. It is only 15-20 min walk from the city center and is very close to a supermarket. It is located near the hip area which is full of bistros and bars but at the same time it is in a "safe" distance from them and so there is absolutely no noise, on the contrary it is super quiet. The people who run this flat are very polite and responsive, especially the guy (sorry for not remembering his name) who brought us a second pair of keys in the middle of the night as we were stupid enough to lock ourselves out. Highly recommended!

  • Reviewer: Baljeet

    Comments: Lovely duplex flat. Stylish decor inside. Location is perfect on Praca de Republica which is a short walk to Trindade station or local buses right outside the flat. So spacious and clean. 2 bathrooms was a real luxury. Nouri met us at check in and spend a good chunk of time with us explaining the area, where the major sights were and good places to go / eat - very much appreciated! All in all very satisfied with the flat as a base for exploring Porto - no hesitation to stay here or in any of the other flats in the same property if I visit Porto again!

  • Reviewer: Kathy

    Comments: Casa is a lovely space with lots of room! The location is perfect for seeing the sites of Porto. The space, location, and price make this apartment a special place. Thanks Nuria and Rui for your hospitality!

    Comments: Great place to base our stay in Porto. Nuria met us and gave us lots of useful hints for our stay. The apartment was lovely with lots of space and lovely backyard. Close to station and a supermarket which is handy

  • Reviewer: Linda

    Comments: We would like to thank our hosts over and over again for helping to make our time in Porto fantastic! They provided lots of great suggestions for restaurants, groceries and sites to see and enjoy. We went to one suggested restaurant, called Paraiso, which was just around the corner twice - fantastic!. The apartment has recently undergone a high-quality renovation, great workmanship, wonderful kitchen and living room, high ceilings, back yard access, laundry, etc. Great home away from home! We will return!!

  • Reviewer: Dan

    Comments: Fantastic spot, nice renovated house, pretty close to the city (+- 10 minutes walk). The host, Nuria, was great and gave us plenty of tips on what to do around the city. Definitely recommended.

  • Reviewer: Christine

    Comments: Very beautiful, spacious apartment, perfect for 2 couples. Good location.

  • Reviewer: Rick

    Comments: Large and airy city apartment with modern furnishing. Located 10 mins from Santa Cristina and a 20 minute walk to the river makes it a good base for those wishing to explore Porto. Many thanks to Nuria (a great host) who was very accommodating with our late arrival and still took the time to offer guidance on local attractions and restaurants.

  • Reviewer: Solange

    Comments: Apartamento térreo excelente, muito bem equipado e decorado, peças amplas e claras, silencioso e bem localizado. E com um maravilhoso pátio ! Equipe atenciosa e prestativa nos proporcionou excelente estadia na casa. Maravilhoso!!!

  • Reviewer: Pia

    Comments: We had a great time at this apartment. It’s beautifully finished and more spacious than we expected. The location is great, walking distance to all the touristy stuff, but removed enough to get a taste of the local vibes of Porto and 60 cent coffee! Welcome was great. Nuria met us at the apartment, had a map and lots of information which was great. Would have been good to have things like hand soap in the bathrooms, extra trash bag, and more than two coffee pods (not the kind of things we travel with for a weekend break or want to have two buy for two days), but apart from that all was wonderful.

    Comments: Nos recibieron muy puntuales, y todo estaba perfecto! El piso tiene mucho encanto, cerca del centro y con todos los servicios necesarios. Muy recomendable!

  • Reviewer: Eguiar

    Comments: Stylish, comfortable apartament not far from the historic district. Hosts are very accommodating and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

  • Reviewer: Becky

    Comments: Beautifully kitted out space - tastefully refurbished to a very high standard. The owners met us and were very friendly and helpful with local recommendations. If you stay here I highly recommend Buuh just a few doors up the street for brunch or tapas - owners are very friendly and the wine delicious. The accommodation itself is very pleasant - very spacious and very high quality finish. We loved how they’d kept original features but modernised it to a high standard. The square is off the tourist trail and well situated for the metro. Easy walk to town. Highly recommended
