Fantastic property. Beautiful modern design, very clean, fully equipped and not a long walk from central areas. Windows are soundproof which is important as the area is fairly busy. Highly recommend.

Fantastic location. We stayed with 2 young children and managed to walk almost everywhere we wanted to visit. Spacious, clean and great to see things like dishwasher tablets and laundry tablets supplied. Supermarket very close (in shopping centre) which was handy too. Highly recommend.

Amazing property when visiting Porto
The property was at a great central
location, near plenty of restaurants, shopping and attractions. The apartment was modern, very clean and had lots of extras. The bottle of wine, water and apples were a great addition. I would definitely recommend this property to any visiting Porto.

Excellent property that has everything you would need for an amazing stay in Porto. Fully equipped with every in suite amenity you would ever need for your stay. Our unit was immaculate and well appointed with a spacious balcony to enjoy a coffee or wine. When back in Porto, we would be fortunate to rent this property again

Amazing!
The place was just amazing! Great location too. The only thing, it took forever to receive our code to entrer, seems there was always missing a information on my request.
Other than that it is a 10/10! Will sure recommend it
This property is in a great location but on a very busy street where no cars are allowed. We did find municipal parking close by so that was ok. The apartment is cute with a nice outdoor terrace, however it is dated and the bathroom was very small, dated and not clean. All in all, it was ok but we wouldn’t return.

Ando Living in SC was in a great spot, very walkable, and on a historic street. The property itself was clean and well appointed. Black-out shades are total, which is fantastic, and the street quietens down during sleeping hours.
One thing for travelers to note is that there is no place for dropoff directly outside the apartment, and you will need to be dropped off about 80 meters away.
Super clean, perfect location, and the beds were so comfortable and luxurious! The moment we checked in and opened the door to the Porto unit, the entire family was wowed. The space is so beautifully designed and functional. The amenities were well thought out with washer pods and dishwashing pods nicely organized. I care a lot about beds and of all 3 hotels that we stayed in Portugal, this was my far the most comfortable. Pressed sheets, fluffy pillows, and heavy comforters. The room had wine, snacks, and water prepared which was such a nice welcoming after a day of traveling. The location is right in the middle of restaurants and shopping, a few steps from majestic cafe and down the street from the chapel of the souls. I loved looking out the windows to see the action in the streets yet be able to retreat back with sound proof windows and black out shutters while sleeping. Our AC in the living room didn’t work but they came to fix immediately and even gave us a credit when it was not able to be fixed in time. We would definitely stay here again or at any Ando living space when we visit Portugal next time.
