House of charm Porto center

Awesome location in Porto. Close to everything and parking is available close by.Jose was an awesome host and took the time to welcome us and show us around. Highly recommend a stay here in Jose's family home.

Better wifi reception

José was great, He greeted me at the apartment at walked me around the neighborhood. The place was quiet and location was very good. Overall great stay.

Our host Jose couldn't have been more kind...the House of Charm was indeed charming and the location is superb...we truly enjoyed our stay!

Jose was the best host we could have asked for. When we arrived he spent an hour and a half showing us his beautiful city and sharing his family’s history. The home is 300 years old but had all the necessary modern conveniences. House of Charm is a perfect description. We walked all over Porto and other than using the funicular we didn’t need to use public transportation. Great location and nice and quiet.We hope one day to return to Porto and will definitely stay at the House of Charm. Thanks Jose for the wonderful memories. Wendy and Marlene.

The location was good. Close to restaurants and grocery store. The apartment was unique and offers a comfortable stay. The only drawback is there is no toilet on the first level and the guest staying downstairs will have to climb up to the 2nd level bedroom to use shower/toilet. Other than this inconvenience it was a good stay. Host was very helpful and responsive.

José welcomed and showed me around his property which is quirky and lovely and has everything that is needed.José even took the time to show me around the area on foot recommending me restaurants and taking me to the local supermarket, all of which are an easy walk to from the property.One great plus of the property was that it was always cool, even when it was 36c I did not need the Aircon on.It is such a good location and is close enough to the metro that you can get the metro to and from the airport and take the short mainly flat route from Campo 24 Agosto on foot.Thank you José

Such a great place to stay, Jose was amazing and gave us a short tour around the area. We loved his place and would stay there in a heart beat again.

Our host, Jose, was there to welcome us! He took us on a lengthy walking tour of the area, explaining the city’s history and showing us some sites. He was warm and kind and treated us to cappuccino and traditional pastry custard tarts! Flat was authentic Portugal in a historic building very convenient to lots of spots. Perfect for 2-3 people. One suggestion only - more hot water for showers and better shower rod and curtain and better shower head. We really loved having two toilets and sinks, though! We would definitely recommend but no long showers here.

José’s house is on the edge of everything you want to see in Porto, so we walked everywhere. The house was well organized although you shouldn’t expect a North American look. This is a 300 year old house! There is free street parking out the door, which was very convenient. There is a laundromat and grocery store (with a good cafeteria) a block away). José took the time not only to make recommendations of where to go but also to take me to the grocery store and laundry so I would know where they are! He was incredibly helpful while we were in Porto. While the house had little natural light, it was amply provided with lamps and we were able to see and knit in the main room.

This flat is beautiful and quirky and a good base to start from when exploring Porto. When considering self-catering, some more applicances are needed to make it work. Also, having access to a warm water tap in the kitchen would be an advantage. Given the proximity to breakfast, lunch and dinner places most people probably won't miss that. Other than that it is a wonderful place to be in and the host has been very welcoming and generous in giving us very useful information about this gorgeous city.

whilst this apartment was very nice we could not stay there as there was too many stairs. we had to pay for a hotel instead. m byng

The host, Jose, was very kind and sweet. When we arrived he gave us a tour of the city. He explained how things work in the house and its history. His place was very close to pharmacy, restaurants and places of interest.

Very handy for this wonderful city with local entertainment going on in the nearby park with excellent eating facilities even for vegetarians! Loved the history of the house and artwork. Thanks José

Location is everything here, close enough to all you want to see and do, yet far enough to get the local experience. We are regular VRBO users and also are hosts for our property in the US. Jose contacted us, met us at the unit and the. Asked to take us for a 30 min orientation of the neighbourhood so we knew where everything was. Lots of great information and we went from being in a forest to a welcoming park in the 30 min. Coffee and pasteis de nata. We would definitely recommend this unit which will sleep 3 comfortably. Bravo José.
