Estadia confortável com excelente SPA e pequenio-almoço
Pros:

Pequeno almoço abundante, variado e com qualidade. Quarto e camas muito confortaveis com os melhores blackouts que experenciamos. Excelente SPA com piscina e circuito de águas, jacuzzi, banho turco e sauna. Ginásio que abre às 7h bem equipado. Náo está no centro mas está bem localizado junto ao rio e ao pé de transportes.A vista do quarto para o rio e centro de coimbra é muito bonita.

Cons:

Falta de secador de cabelo no quarto e balneário do SPA. Shampoo e condicionador devem ser 2 produtos separados.Para o nível incluiria uma chaleira no quarto.
