Exceptional
Amazing historic location close enough to all the interesting parts
Liked: Absolutely superb in every way. Just loved the experience it such an old and historic place. Ana was a delight and so helpful. The section was loverly.
Wonderful, huge, historic, and not your usual kind of place
Liked: This is a fabulous, unusual luxury apartment that feels special. It has a disheveled elegance (and it is HUGE) that was a delightful change from cookie cutter places.
Disliked: The bathroom for one of the bedrooms is tiny, and it was hot (but we were able to get a fan). There was loud student noise at 6 AM.
Liked: Coimbra's historic old town and university were the main reasons for visiting. With its character and prominent location, Alto Canto is perfect on both counts. A hearty breakfast set me for the day as did the helpful recommendations that guided me to places I would not have otherwise gone to. Great communication throughout a bonus.
Disliked: For the environmentally conscious traveller, some recycling bins on site are appreciated as they are hard to find in town. The mini bar in the room will be an excellent way of promoting Portugal's wonderful food and drink. Thank you.
An incredible place in a great location
Liked: The location was amazing - right by the University and the two restaurants we had selected were 5 minutes walk. The view is incredible and the building itself is so unique - first place we have stayed with a ballroom!
Disliked: No kitchen, but we knew that before booking
Unique experience
Liked: Great location to university visit. Excellent host and breakfast. Rooms and beds are comfy. Terrace views are beautiful. The experience is one of a kind.
Disliked: Scent/smell of certain rooms can be improved - probably through use of organic scents or plants (e.g lavender). Kids did catch a cockroach in their room, so house cleanness can also be improved.
Great value, amazing stay, good hospitality
Liked: Excellent view, large spacious clean room in a 2 room B&B. Staff prepared an excellent breakfast. View of river form the balcony is amazing. Very well located, can walk to old town from hotel.
Disliked: Room, service, view
