Bright and modern, this apartment is a great choice for those in search of a fuss-free Porto pad. You'll be a few minutes walk from the Mercado Bom Sucesso and the Casa da Música, while the city's historical centre is a ten-minute bus ride away. Inside, the apartment is perfectly practical, if a little on the small side, with a light-filled living area and a sunny dining area by the window – ideal for evening drinks. The fully equipped kitchen makes home cooking possible and there's a laptop desk space in the bedroom for those working remotely. Plus, if you're hiring a car to reach the beach and beyond, covered parking is provided.
