Description from owner
Description
Charming flat is very well located right in the center of Oporto (part of UNESCO World Heritage àrea) where you can walk to all the places you want to visit. Many of the city's attractions are very close to it.
Due to its important role on Porto's history, "Rua das Flores" Street has more foreign people visiting it during the day than local people. It's a place you cannot miss visiting. But why not stay on it for some days instead?
The apartment is at 300 meters from Ribeira Square which offers a variety of restaurants, cafes, and bars, and the well-known port wine cellars at 800 meters where you can taste our nectar of the gods.
The flat is on the first floor, carefully furnished, and features hardwood floors. This well-sized and comfortable apartment is for two people but it can handle 2 more since it has one bedroom with one queen-sized bed, a bathroom, and a living room completely furnished. The living room can be used as a room with his sofa bed. Clean bath towels, Linen, and tableware are included and the kitchen is fully equipped with a microwave, stove, oven, fridge, toaster, kettle, and all you need to prepare your own meals. We can supply a travel crib at an extra cost.
The Flowerstreet54 Building was completely rebuilt in 2005 and had to keep the original architecture by the imposition of the Culture Department of Portugal to maintain it's beautiful Portuguese style.
Included in the price, are sheets and bath towels, kitchen essentials, and cleaning at the end of the stay. Wireless internet is also included.
Late check-in is acceptable until 02:00 a.m. (probably self-check-in after 20:00 via Key Box). Late check-out is possible if we don't have new guests on the same day.

Response from the owner Thank you "dissatisfied84" for your review. We are sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay as much as we wished. We are not English native so we don't quite understand what you mean by "over scenting". Did the bedlinen and towels smell bad? Or there was too much perfume in them? We like to understand tenants opinions to be able to improve. Best Wishes.
