We had a lovely time and Maria was wonderful!
Pros:

The room was very cozy and clean. There was enough room for me and my sister. I appreciated being able to watch television with Portuguese subtitles so I could practice my language skills.

Cons:

I wish there was coffee and pastries in the morning. We didn’t know where to go for breakfast. We quickly figured it out though!

Pros:

La posizione è ottima, vicina al centro ma in zona tranquilla, la struttura molto suggestiva in immobile di pregio, molto belli anche gli arredi. Lo staff cordialissimo, anzi, fantastico. La camera pulitissima (la signora delle pulizie ci ha addirittura messo ad asciugare degli abiti che ero stata costretta a lavare). La signora alla reception è stata disponibilissima e ci ha addirittura regalato dei biscotti. Non saprei cosa chiedere di più.

Cons:

Niente

Trotz den Negativpunkten wurde unsere Erwartungen an die Unterkunft für den 2-tägigen Städtetripp in Coimbra erfüllt.
Pros:

Altes Haus, freundliche unkomplizierte Gastgeberin, sauber, Lage: obwohl nicht direkt im Zentrum, war alles zu Fuss oder mit ÖV gut erreichbar; zudem hatte es in der Umgebung immer genügend freie Parkplätze.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung ist ein bisschen in die Jahre gekommen. Die Fenster sind nicht dicht. Der Verkehrslärm wegen der Strassensanierung war schon sehr störend.

Great value, close to University but far enough away to not be in the thick of the tourists.
Pros:

Beautifully restored 400 yr old home. Welcoming caretaker.

Cons:

A little road noise from traffic.

Ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt.
Pros:

Maria hat uns unerwartet ein upgrade des Zimmers gegeben: Ganz, ganz herzlichen Dank dafür - es war das schönste Zimmer, das wir auf dieser unserer Reise gehabt haben (sehr gross, geräumig, ruhig, hoch, liebevoll eingerichtet, ein zweites Zimmer ... und ein süsser Balkon) - wir haben unsere drei Nächte hier SEHR genossen. Danke!

Cons:

... dass wir nach drei Nächten bereits wieder weiterreisen 'mussten'!

Peaceful and welcoming stay in Coimbra Portugal
Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at this accommodation. The place is very clean and quiet, perfect for relaxing. The hostess is extremely hospitable, kind, and attentive, always making sure that her guests feel comfortable and well taken care of. The neighborhood is also lovely, with parks to walk around and several places nearby where you can enjoy delicious local food. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and welcoming stay.

Cons:

Everything was perfect!

Charming stay in Coimbra in a beautifully restored and maintained traditional Portuguese house.
Pros:

Beautiful traditional Portuguese house with period details. Very well maintained and immaculate. The owner, Maria was very gracious and helpful. Although the property does not come with parking, it is fairly easy to find street parking outside the hotel, especially later on during the day.

Cons:

Location is sub-optimal; about a 20 minute hike from the city center. Given that Coimbra is a very hilly city, this may a bit tough on older travelers like ourselves.
