Acting within a very small volume, this combination of ambivalent geometries achieves quite unconventional living rooms.



It is inserted in a typical and cultural space of Porto: an "ilha".



With this in mind, we wanted to create a unique space for you.

→ One double bed in the Bedroom;



And kitchen? So well equipped with:



→ Microwave (with grill)

→ Mini Refrigerator

→ Coffee machine;

→ Washing machine - in the common areas;

→ Toaster;

→ Utensils;



In addition to the kitchen, you can count on a BATHROOM equipped with towels and shampoo for a relaxing bath after touring the city.

Déception totale !

La clé a bien été récupéré dans le boîtier sans problème. En ouvrant le portail, nous avons cru nous tromper de lieu. Nous avons été accueillis par une mini déchetterie, puis nous avons dû traverser une colonie de pigeons,. Puis des cacas de chien sur le gazon attirant les mouches. Sur le porte-clé aucun numéro, nous avons dû essayer plusieurs serrures. À l'ouverture de l'appartement une odeur de canalisation très forte, canapé taché, dans la chambre matelas au sol , escaliers à moitié sécurisés, marches étroites. Appartement pas idéal pour les plus de 60 ans . Désolée mais plus jamais
