The remaining houses were carefully transformed into tourist accommodations, offering visitors a truly immersive cultural experience. By staying at Ruby Charm Houses, guests have the chance to connect with other travelers as well as long-time residents, experiencing the genuine essence of Porto’s "ilhas."
