São Vítor Douro Living

A localização e a varanda

Não tinha ar condicionado/ventoinha e aquecia muito durante o dia, e também muito difícil de lavar a louça devido a inclinação do teto

Neighbors helped me get in.

clean and spacious

No one was there when I arrived. The internet connection wasn't working. The back of the sofa fell when I sat down. The coffee capsules didn't match the coffee maker. The kitchen utensils were very limited, no spatula for the frying pan and no microwave.

Location was good. Close to shops and eating places and easy for uber to locate. Within walking distance to the Duuro river and shopping lanes. Madelne and Mr Paulo tried their best to attend to the shortcommings below. Madelene arranged an early checkin and a late checkout which was appreciated.

I stayed in Room 3A which was a single occupancy on the 3rd floor. It takes 53 steps to get to the room. There are no lifts and if you are unfit you will definitely struggle to carry your luggauge. The shower in this room is very small, and me being a fairly thin person, struggled to have a decent shower. I suggest you don't book this room if you think you are a more bigger person. There was no micro wave to warm your food and its impracticle to use pots and pans when you are on business to heat food in a hurry. I requested a micro and Mr Paula arranged it for me a day after my arrival. The room only gets cleaned after 7 days of occupancy on the 8th day. No towels are changed , but Madelene managed to have fresh towels sent to my room on day 3. The internet was a huge problem. Most mornings it did not work 4-5am and only settles around 10-11am when I had already left the apartment. Mr Paulo installed a router which worked well, until my friends , a family of 5 arrived a day later experienced the same internet and wifi problems and I was told to borrow my router to them, which i did ,since more of them were doing remote work. I eventually bought an eSim. The day of departure Mr Paulo said that the internet cables were being replaced by fibre optic cables - but too late. The shower drain was clogged, but Mr Paulo got a plumber to unblock it.

Breakfast not applicable as we had a self catering unit. The location was very good and we enjoyed walks around the neighbourhood.

Poor service and state of apartment. When we arrived the unit did not have the basic amenities, eg. toilet paper. We had to go out and buy this immediately. We then received one roll of toilet paper for five people. The bathroom smelled awful. and the apartment smelled damp. We were not afforded clean towels during our 7 day stay, even though we asked. The wifi was problematic from the first day. We were not able to work as the wifi was sporadic, poor signal due to all five apartments sharing one router, even though the service had Vodaphone try and resolve the issue. Don't be fooled by the advertisement which indicates two bathrooms and two bedrooms. The apartment only has one full bathroom and a seperate toilet. The nicest part of the unit is the Kitchen.

the toilet had a bad consistent bad smell, which was not conforting to be near to, also the enternet was really poor i had to use my phone the whole time of my stay at the apartment.

Hôte très accueillant et réactif Studio très propre et bien équipé, la literie très très confortable, bonne connexion wifi

Początkowy apartament przestronny i wygodny, w połowie pobytu przeniesiona nas do małego pokoiku na poddaszu, mało miejsca, niski standard.
