DA'Home - Fontainhas Design Studio

Great location.

It's very hot in the flat there is no A/C

Nice location, good communication with the host, nice furnished apartament, parking place in closed area

No air conditioning - the windows from the street side so it was loudly with open windows

Good location and smart looking studio in the adverts. Bed was comfortable and linen clean Kitchen was well equipped Kitchen was however shabby with doors with surfaces missing and sealant from sink all over wooden surface making it feel unclean Some of the crockery chipped No air conditioning (as advertised) and fan provided but uncomfortably hot even in June and fan very noisy Earplugs provided (for lively neighbourhood) but on a very busy road with traffic noise early and late and lots of horns used- no indication in advert Bathroom sink was draining slowly on arrival to be fixed by the maintenance man who was coming to reseal the bath which was very mouldy. Sink fixed but not seal. Bath was leaking Hot water to shower comes in bursts Team offered a deep clean when reported (new sheets and towels) which we turned down as did not resolve problems TV had no signal throughout stay Taxi service good

As above Kitchen and bathroom need maintenance to be clean Toilet brush needs replacing! TV needs fixing Terrace as advertised but upstairs and furniture uncomfortable so disappointing as a bit misleading in the advert and shared. Cheap furniture Have shared photos of all issues with management team

Everything was great: the location, the bed, the amenities, everything. As we had quite rainy weather, it was cozy to stay inside. The balcony was very nice, also the one that was on the floor for public use. At first it was a little conserning to give the debit and personal info, but we understood it was for safety and regional law. We really recommend the place! Also, when in Porto, we recommend to visit the botanical garden and Crystal Palace. The latter had best views in the city and just wonderful plants and birds free roaming around.

Fontainhas is a lovely property. There is a queen sized bed and a great kitchen including an all in one washer/dryer and dishwasher. It is comfortably furnished, reasonably spacious and the kitchen is well equipped, although the only cooking supplies were some oil, vinegar and salt - which was also true for other places we stayed in Portugal. The apartment has wood floors and wooden shutters over the windows making it feel very warm. Communication with the staff at Da'Home was excellent. They seem very serious about making your stay a pleasant one. The location is great for sightseeing since many of the main attractions are 10 - 15 minute walk away, however there is reasonable amount of uphill from Sao Bento station going back to the apartment.

I like the fairly low pillow and the provided pillows were higher than I can sleep on, so I ended up using one of the decorative feather pillows to sleep which worked well. The location is on a fairly busy uphill street and can noisy, especially if you open the lovely windows. At night, the shutters for the windows block a lot of the noise, but light sleepers might need the provided ear plugs. The shower was a bit of an adventure since the temperature would continue to increase over a period of 2 or 3 minutes and the flow would go from normal to double the volume suddenly - which when you are leaning in to reduce the temperature can be a wake up call : )

The apartment is very comfortable. Hosts are helpful and easy to contact. The location is great, the city center and all major attractions are in 10-15 minutes walking. Private and secured car parking is a huge plus for those who come by car like us. We just leave the car for 3 days and walked everywhere.

All windows of the apartment go on very noisy street and you hear cars passing by all the time even if the windows are closed.

Perfect! The apartment is located just off the center of Porto with most attractions and the best spots to enjoy a sunset just a short walk away. The apartment has everything you need for your stay, including washer and dishwasher detergents, and I was especially pleased with the in-floor heating, wooden floor and a washer+dryer combo that made my stay very pleasant. Private parking space in a secure courtyard was also provided. All necessities were included, including some earplugs as the night traffic in Porto can sometimes be noisy :) Best of all were the lovely and professionl hosts at DA'HOME, including the cleaning staff that refreshed the apartment also during my week-long stay. I highly recommended DA'HOME and their offering in Porto!

As the apartment is on the street side, traffic noise can occasionally be bothersome. But mostly it is very quiet and peaceful during nights and for those who sleep lightly there are earplugs provided

Spacious bedroom, floor heating, comfy beds, pretty furnished, all amenities in the kitchen and the bathroom. Great communication with the hosts, the location was perfect - walking distance to the city center was just 10min away. Highly recommended, would book again if in Porto.
