Situated in a recently renovated building in a historic part of Porto, Rio & Agua is well-lit, comfortable and elegant. The neighbourhood is quiet, but the bustle of the city centre is roughly a twenty-minute walk away. The river is a few steps from the apartment, and the balcony gives you lovely views of it. This home is more suited to a city getaway than a long stay as it doesn’t have a washing machine, but aside from that, it’s a convenient and well-designed base for all kinds of travellers. Home truths: *There is no elevator in the building and there are 38 steps to climb to get to the apartment *The bedroom is an interior room with no window, though it doesn't feel claustrophobic *There isn't a washing machine
