    The host was lovely, the room impeccable and the 5th floor view incredible. Such a sweet space in the greatest location.

    Just peeked. Seems as if could be a bit more variety.

    Despite sound insulation on the window shutters the noise from outside was particularly noticeable until dawn.

    Really comfortable bedroom & bathroom in a historic building. The use of a kitchen for drinks & snacks was much appreciated. The roof terrace is a great place to spend time.

    Nothing – no complaints at all

    Excellent location and a quirky building which added value to our one night in the city. Juan on checking was excellent and the terrace roof and views were an added bonus. We love this place and would recommend it to anybody and come back again. One tip is to park in the public car park across the river and walk to the hotel – slightly over five minutes before checking in. The price of the car park is ridiculously cheap.

    It was a long walk from the parking (across the bridge). Not being able to deposit a large suitcase outside the entrance made arrival difficult.

    The location in an upmarket pedestrian street was very good. It was good to be able to make coffee or tea in the equipped kitchen was a nice touch. The cakes/biscuits and fruit were very welcome. The room was spacious and the bathroom had everything we expected.

    Everything great.

    Fabulous location. Comfortable rooms and lift access. We had the room with a little balcony on the 5th floor and it was perfect. Great views from our room and also the roof top. Little kitchen on ground floor with tea coffee etc. If arriving by car or public transport it’s just a 2 minute walk from the end of the street.

    Great place to stay in the center of Coimbra. So much is within walking distance and a great, reasonably priced guesthouse. Tomas at the front desk was very personable and helpful.

    Only thing we would have liked is tea / coffee making in room. Note that there is a kitchen with a coffee machine you could use, which we did.
