  : We loved this B&B in the heart of the University area and one of the popular cultural areas of the city - we were right next to the So Sebastio Aqueduct and steps leading to the University sites. The B&B had character and included local artwork alongside a contemporary vibe in an old property. The staff were super efficient and friendly and able to advise about things to see in the area. There were a range of basic options for breakfast which could be eaten in a covered area outside or in the small kitchen area. The rooms were more spacious than I had anticipated and included a super little kitchenette including tea/coffee facilities. We only stayed one night en route to Porto but would feel comfortable staying more than one night. Free parking (by arrangement) is a short walk from the rear of the property.
  : It wasn't a problem for us but might be difficult for people who cannot use stairs easily.

  : Be aware that this is a mix student-tourist apartment building and you will be greeted by a very nice and informed student. Breakfast was excellent. Location is great. Modern rooms. Secure private parking on the backstreet.
  : Location hard to find even with a GPS. Do not drive up the hill at the roundabout but rather take the small, single lane, parallel side street which runs at the same level as the roundabout.

  : Location was perfect, and breakfast was great.
  : A minor drawback was access to rooms up stairs for bags, but that was minor taking into account the superb location and modern facilities.

  : Modern room, simple but good breakfast. The staff were helpful. Excellent located nearby the university. Facilities recently refurbished with good taste.
  : It was hard to find the place, it is not easily recognisable from the outside and badly signalled on google maps.

  : We didn't stay here despite the fact that we made reservations months ago. They canceled our reservations hours before our arrival, greatly inconveniencing us.
  : We booked a room here about six months prior to our arrival date. The day before we were to arrive, they sent a message with information about how to get in, etc. And then the night before, they canceled our reservation without explanation! We were at a friend's house having dinner in Leiria, and we had to drop everything and look for another hotel instead of enjoying our visit. We sent a message to ask the reason, and they blamed it on Booking.com and sent a page from the app which explained absolutely nothing. Later, when we told someone in Coimbra what happened, we were told that this hotel overbooks on a regular basis and they frequently have to cancel people's reservations. I hope this isn't true, but I'm putting this out there so that you can consider yourself informed.
