Affordable accommodation just outside the old city up on a hill. Staff is friendly. The rooms are very old and need renovation and the beds feel like camping beds. However the bathroom was redone, which was a nice touch. There is not much in the immediate area other than a Lidl, but if you want a decently priced place to stay away from the hustle and bustle, this might be it.

The property was too far away from any restaurants and there was no restaurant on site. Some of the other guests were very noisy at all hours of the day and night. The management ignored this and did nothing to resolve the situation.

Beautiful location, very accommodating, walkable but like most of Portugal u will be going up/down steep hills, everything is within the 1-15 mins away by foot, we travelled with twins in a double stroller/pram and had no issues other then being tired from hills, beautful pool and lounge area with food/drinks being served. Staff was amazing. We will be retuning in the future

We liked the pools, the deck on our room. Also close to the grocery store. The one major issue that was never resolved was the lack of working wifi in the lower block where we were. It did not work for the 3 nights / 4 days that we were there. The staff did not seem to know how to resolve the issues indicating it was a different provider for the lower block and theirs was working at the reception. It was still not working when we left. We were relying on the wifi at our accommodations and this was a major issue for us.

Spacious room but certainly not luxury

We had a two bedroom suite with kitchen and balcony. The suite was spacious. However, the air flow was quite poor which caused mould on the shower walls and our bedsheets/ beds were constantly damp. In fact, our dry clothes became damp from overnight storage in the bedrooms. When we first arrived, the bathroom garbage can was still full from the previous tenant. Additionally, room service only comes every other day. The gentleman at the front desk was nice to deal with and the location wasn't bad. However, we wouldn't book here again.
