About this property

Historic Center Porto - Passeio das Cardosas

The apartment is located in Passeio das Cardosas, a project representative of a remarkable work of urban rehabilitation in downtown Porto. It is a block bounded on the north by Praça da Liberdade, on the east by Praça de Almeida Garrett, on the south by Rua das Flores and on the west by Largo dos Lóios and Rua Trindade Coelho. This intervention allowed the public to open a new square, Praça das Cardosas, inside the block. The Square has 24-hour surveillance and its interior is closed from 7:00 p.m. and only residents are allowed to enter.
The apartment was carefully decorated, emphasizing the quality of the materials and the comfort of the textures of the fabrics used. Well sized and comfortable for 2 people, with a play area with two armchairs, a table and TV. The sleeping area has a double bed, equipped with bed linen, Colunex mattress that offers health and well-being, headrest in capitoné of white skin and sufficient cushions to guarantee the necessary comfort. We have a guest bed that will be installed whenever necessary. The room has underfloor heating which allows full comfort even in the winter months.
On the upper floor we have the kitchen and the dining table. The kitchen is equipped to provide a good culinary experience: stove, oven, microwave, coffee maker, refrigerator, freezer, extractor hood, toaster and kettle.
The toilet is equipped with a modern set of hanging crockery, a bathtub with shower and a closet. We offer towels, bath sheets, hair dryer, washing machine, iron, ironing board and drying rack.
The cleaning of the apartment is ensured by a carefully selected suitable company. In case of prolonged stays the periodicity of cleaning will be agreed with the guest by means of price adjustment.
We have wireless internet and access to cable TV.
The apartment has 2 mini balconies overlooking Rua das Flores and São Bento Station (metro and trains).
The parking lot is located on the lower floors of the condominium, with elevators to Praça das Cardosas. In case of need of parking we thank you to mention in the reservation to be included the additional cost. (€ 30 per day)

Very clean, convenient and right in the middle of everything
Everything was just fine. It was a bit noisy outside (there were many British football fans in Porto for the CL finals).

Immaculate apartment in great location
The apartment is lovely and is very well equipped and in an ideal location to explore this beautiful city. Very close to train station, metro and bus routes, although it is very easy to walk to many of the attractions and restaurants/ bars. We visited in August and had excellent weather but the apartment can be cooled down easily and the 2 balconies allow you to “watch the world go by” below. Susete provides plenty of useful information and is easily contacted- would definitely return.

Lovely Apartment
We love Porto and the people are so lovely (which I will come back to). Location is great and if we spent a month there would be so much fitter! Great for the metro and train station and bus 500 which will take you along the coast to Foz and beyond to Matosinhos which has an amazing beach. Easy access to taxis parked outside the station. We arrived at 9.30pm which is outside the check in time and gave us problems finding the property, not helped by where the taxi driver dropped us off. I would recommend that if being dropped off by taxi Sao Bento station would be a perfect drop off and whilst we had good written instructions and google a little hand drawn map would have been helpful. The locals were amazing in trying to find the building but when we were in the square it was so dark we could not work out how to get in, anyway a young couple went through the instructions and the young man found the keypad! It would have really helped to have a note on the door just saying Welcome Mr & Mrs Hodges with an arrow pointing to the key pad. These are tips which would have helped us, but maybe it would be better to check in before 8.00pm when someone is available to meet and greet. I say again the people of Porto were lovely in their assistance. We will come back again.

Lovely Porto
Beautiful place. Great location. We were able to walk anywhere we needed to go. We did not mind the street noise as it added character and ambience to the stay. Might be more noise in the summer, we were there in November.
