  : The location is good although a bit outside the main town (10 min walk), you can easily reach the park near the river or go across the river to the other park, the building is big and very open with big windows, so it has plenty of space and facilities, you never feel crowded, the breakfast is just ok, in my regard the best part of the facility is the staff, all of them are very polite and accommodating and that helps to create a really good and relaxed mood. Plus plenty of parking and good wifi.
  : The worst thing by far is the building and the rooms, both are very rundown, the photos here are nothing like reality, they feel like they were taken 6 years ago, my room had ripped flooring and some old carpets there instead, wasn't nice, it felt dirty and sticky, i didn't feel comfortable walking barefoot, also the construction of the building points all rooms to the side or like mine to the back, so no beautiful views of the river from your room. Compared with the hotels Ive been recently in Portugal it was one of the most expensive for a private room, but pretty much the worst room I've been in a while, if it gets hot like it was when i was there, a fan will help, but its not a very comfortable stay.

  : Breakfast was nice and available very soon, room was spacious, staff was nice
  : the room was so hot it was unbearable to sleep, even with a cold night and open windows there was no way to cool down the room. the location is quite out of town center.

  : Kind staff, good breakfast. The view from the balcony was really nice. In general pretty quiet and calm.
  : It's relatively far away from the center if you're on foot. Somewhat secluded
