João was a thoughtful and generous host. He gave me good information about the area and even took me out on his motorcycle to show me around. The apartment is located in a pleasant area with good access by bus to the metro, downtown Porto, and the Port wine cellars.

Olinda and her mother Maria (who lives next door) treated me like family from day one. They are kind and generous people, and I am grateful for the experience I had with them. The home is large, modern, and beautiful and has an herb garden, fruit trees, chickens and hens. Arrabal is a quaint village and a nice place to relax.
