9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (6)
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Coimbra. The accommodation is very large and is well-located with easy access to the city centre by car, transit or a little longer walk. Suite is well appointed and the check in and check out process were hassle free. The host, Ricardo, provided good information for our stay and made special provision when we arrived at a little different time than we expected. Highly recommend!"
