About this property

'Story Studio' Coimbra Centro

The 'Story Studio' Coimbra Centro is located in the historic area of Coimbra, near the Arco de Almedina and 450 meters from Coimbra A Railway Station, within the Walled City. This location is ideal for tourism and walks through historic areas such as the Sé Velha, the Church of Santa Cruz, and the University of Coimbra.

The one-bedroom apartment guarantees a comfortable stay, offering Wi-Fi internet service and a TV with over 100 channels. Additionally, it has a balcony where you can have your breakfast and relax after visiting the city's monuments and museums.

Almedina, also called "Alta," was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2013. The Sé Velha, where the Monumental Serenade of Queima das Fitas takes place, is 160 meters from the apartment, and the University of Coimbra is 500 meters away. Nearby, you will find restaurants, Fado houses, and street shops, making it very convenient for guests who wish to visit the city's historic area.

Although parking is limited and paid in the vicinity of the historic center, the nearest covered public parking lot is about 600 meters away, specifically Bragaparques.

According to the municipal regulations of Coimbra, a tourist tax of 1.00 euro per person, per night, is applied during your stay. It is important to note that this tax is limited to a maximum of three consecutive nights. Therefore, for longer stays, the tax will be applied only for the first three nights.

Nice Apartment
This is a comfortable apartment. It is spacious. There is a nice cubby style divider which is a great place to store all your cameras, hats etc. The bathroom is very nice. The kitchen is big and has enough basics to cook a simple meal. The host provided olive oil, salt, oregano, and green and herbal tea, as well as some small packets of vinegar, salt and pepper, and sugar. The appliances are new and function well. The deck space is nice; it is on the quiet back side of the apartment and overlooks other apartments and homes. The beds were comfortable. The wifi worked well. The host was good to deal with and prompt to answer questions. If you are reliant on a handrail for using the stairs, I would not recommend this apartment. As a previous reviewer noted, the railing is very loose and does not feel secure. We stayed on a holiday long weekend and, given how central the apartment is, there were a lot of celebrations going on and the street noise continued well into the middle of the night. Earplugs were needed to try to sleep.

Heel fijn, ruim en mooi appartement op top locatie en van alle gemakken voorzien
Ruim appartement vlakbij gezellig plein en in leuk straatje. Geen last van geluidsoverlast gehad. Uitstekend bed, niet hard en groot genoeg. Keuken is goed ingericht. Fijn terrasje aan achterkant.

Clean and cute in the heart of Coimbra
Our second stay here. Great location. Clean and well equipped. We didn’t cook- so no comments on kitchen but looked good. Nice deck. Good communication. Lots of steps - Portugal is not made for folks with mobility challenges.
