    This loft apartment actually undersells itself - it is superbly located, has the most amazing view and has everything you could want. The views are best enjoyed from the full length balcony and floor to ceiling windows which was an amazing surprise.

    The perfect spot for a breathtaking view. Very clean apartment, outstanding balcony, and a great location. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience Porto. You can reach almost anything you would want to see in a 30 minute or so walk from the apartment & bonus of being close to everything in Gaia!

    Lovely views, great balcony. A little awkward to access Porto itself (and back) without public transport or steep climbs each way.Nice small studio, but very minimally equipped kitchen area.

    Great stay in a beautiful place. I have included a picture of the front door which will help you to realise when you have arrived.

    Lovely place right in the heart of Gaia and very close to Porto across the river. The space was clean and the views from the balcony were wonderful. Everything was very comfortable. Communication with the host could have been better. There were a few times I reached out and did not receive a quick (if any) response, but other than that, we had a wonderful stay here.

    The apartment was clean, nicely appointed and very comfortable for two. The location allowed for walking to local restaurants and tourist attractions as well. We choose to UBER to a few attractions which was very easy and not expensive. I highly recommend the apartment and plan to stay there when we return.

    This apartment was exactly what we were looking for! We loved sitting on the balcony with our glass of wine and taking in the gorgeous view of Porto. Restaurants and the boardwalk by the river were within a one minute walk, and we took uber rides when we wanted to go to Porto, so the location was very convenient. The apartment had a large comfortable bed, nice big bathroom and shower. We had a great stay here and would highly recommend it!

    Check in was seamless and what a lovely studio awaited us at the top of the stairs. Gaia is just across the river and we had a beautiful view of Porto from the balcony. Comfortable bed & linens, spacious bathroom, solid WiFi and plenty of hot water. Very enjoyable stay!

    'The Loft' is equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. We spent many a happy hour taking in the stunning views from the balcony, looking across the roofs of the various wine cellars, the Dom Luis I Bridge and over the river to historic Porto. The main historic sites are in walking distance and there is a wide choice of bars and restaurants on both sides of the river. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom really well equipped. We recommend this lovely accommodation. It is accessed up three flights of steps.

    This VRBO exceeded our expectations. It is an absolute gem with a view to die for. We stayed there for three days and the location is so fantastic. Right in the heart of the Wow district where they have a number of the best Port and Wine tasting rooms in Porto. They are all within a block. The unit is no the top floor of the building with a large patio that has uninterrupted views of Old Porto from across the river in Gaia. Everything is very walkable to tour all the highlights of Porto including the docks for the water tours which a block away.

    We enjoyed our 2 night stay and the apartment itself was in excellent condition and very comfortable. The only drawback we encountered was parking. The recommended lots were full and we ended up driving around until we found a lot with available space. The cost was 25 euros/day which we originally had not planned to pay when booking.

    Super clean, very well maintained, close to the river but quiet. You can relax on the terrace with a river view or go and explore busy streets in proximity. Comfy bed, the hosts really takes care about the place. Clear and accurate communication including all access / network access details. Highly recommended,
