Casa do Teatro

An interestingly decorated room in African style. Nice hall with a TV and books. Spacious and comfortable room and bathroom. Microwave, kettle and refrigerator in the hall. Possibility to use a private garden. Very nice and helpful owners. Very flexible with time and quick response to messages. A great handwritten notebook with tips about Porto. Localisation of the apartment is very good, there are shops and Lidl nearby. About 20-30 min. walking distance to the city centre (old town) which is close.

Due to the fact that it is a basement in a tenement house, it is quite damp and dark. you have to turn on the lights during the day. The windows face the sidewalk, so you have to watch out for people passing by and dust from the street. Opposite the building there is a church that rings every hour and sometimes plays longer melodies, which may disturb your relaxation. It is not possible to lock the room.

The hosts are amazing - Francisca and her daughter are very polite and they provide you with amazing recommendations for the sights and restaurants in the city (that significantly improved our stay). Our room was on the ground floor (a bit below, so one must use stairs) but it had enough light. There was a living room which was apparently also used by other people but we haven't seen anyone, so one has a lot of space. The surrounding is very nice and it felt safe. It's only 20 minutes on foot from the city center. I would definitely recommend staying here.

I didn't like that one couldn't lock the room, but the house felt very safe so we didn't mind it. I would definitely recommend staying here despite of this detail.

Francisca and Nuno were exceptional. They were so welcoming, we had a great chat where Nuno explained the bits and bobs of the city as well as recommendations on local places to eat or original things to do and see in Porto. The accommodation was really nice and spacious, we had pretty much a flat for ourselves. The choice of furniture and decorations blend perfectly together and are very artistically oriented. It was a true joy staying at this beautiful home, definitely made our experience more genuine and made us feel like at a home away from our own.

We had a very warm and friendly welcome. We received a lot of useful information about the city from the host.

It was very cold in the room, the room can only heated by a mini electric heater.

The house is super beautiful, comfortable, clean and every well located. The host is been super kind with me. Hope to be able to come back there other times
