My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were quite clean overall, but I did find a few stray hairs on the bathroom wall, which was a bit off-putting. On the bright side, the room was well-maintained and came with a convenient mini-bar. The hotel's hilltop location offered great views of the city center and some greenery, making it a value-for-money choice in Coimbra.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean, comfy, and quiet, with a nice view out the back to a wooded area. The included dinner and breakfast were both very good, and the hotel offered free WiFi and a kettle to make coffee/tea. However, the rooms were fine but nothing outstanding.

The service was overall quite helpful, even though the staff appeared a bit tired. The location was fantastic, with a great view over Coimbra, but it was a small drive outside the center.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant. The rooms, although allowing sound from neighboring walls and lacking irons, were cozy with a nice private patio. The service was satisfactory; the staff was friendly and competent. The location, on a hill with spectacular views of Coimbra, was ideal for those with a car. Dining offered good options, although more variety would be appreciated. The facilities were decent, but could use some improvement. Overall, a comfortable stay with great views.

The hotel definitely needs some updating and renovations to bring it up to the local standard for a 3-star establishment claiming to be of a 3 1/2-star standard. The rooms, while not very modern, are comfortable enough, though cleanliness could be improved. The service was a mix, with some staff being extremely friendly and helpful while others were rude. The location was challenging to find and not centrally located, although it did offer nice city views. The dining experience was passable but could have been better. Overall, the facilities require attention but are satisfactory for a short stay.
