City break
We wanted an apartment within walking distance of shops, restaurants and the town - that's exactly what we got!
From booking to the end of our stay Nuno was amazing. He answered all our questions quickly, was flexible when we arrived early, gave us directions for local key points as well as info on the Roman celebrations that weekend.
The apartment itself is fitted with everything you need - although with two amazing restaurants in the same street, we didn't cook much!
The supermarket in the local shopping centre is huge and packed with a lot of choice. Remember to pack some shopping bags if you are likely to carry back beer, water, wine etc.
For anyone with vertigo, there are no road crossings for the main road which needs to be crossed to reach the town. There are overhead pedestrian bridges. The first is open giving a view of passing traffic underneath but further up is an enclosed bridge. You access this bridge by a staircase just on the outside of the shopping centre past the main entrance.
There is a taxi rank here and Uber operates in Braga.
The apartment was on the 2nd floor - about four short flights of stairs. The stairwell light was out so we used the torches on our phones.
There is no lift so be mindful if you have mobility issues.
There are two small balconies - one off the bedroom and one of the kitchen/dining area for taking in the atmosphere of the street.
This was a great location for us, with a perfect host.
