We’ve fallen hard for this Bonfim apartment boasting a suntrap terrace. One of two apartments belonging to a historic townhouse, the home is set across two light-filled floors. While you can’t fault the fresh interiors, it’s worth noting the last guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the lounge, and the kitchen is compact, so don't expect to be rustling up much food here. Set in the heart of Bonfim, this corner of Porto is charming. All the hotspots, including Rua de Santa Catarina and Bolhão, are within easy walking distance. Or hop on the Metro (just 500 metres from your door) to explore further afield.

Home truths:
*One guest will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area. We think it's best suited to a child or friends on a short trip.
*You won't find an oven or hob here. We think the kitchen is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
*This home is located within a townhouse consisting of two apartments, and you’ll share an entrance.
*You’ll check in with a keypad and code.
*The alternate tread stairs leading down to the bedroom aren’t overly child-friendly.
*It's worth noting that the mattresses here are on the firmer side, so not everyone might find them comfortable.
*Your host asks you to respect the quiet hours from 10pm to 8am.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some traffic noise throughout your stay.
