"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!"

"Ana was waiting to welcome us when we arrived. The bottle of wine was a nice touch. House was clean, well equipped and spacious. Ana was a great communicator and ver responsive. Gave us recommendations for restaurants, laundromats and even medical care that one of us needed. Neighbourhood is quiet, but close to all amenities, the municipal market, parks, and the beach. We would stay again. We had a lovely stay! Thank you, Ana!"
