We nicknamed this place "The Cave". It was clean and comfortable enough. We did sleep great here. It was quiet. Unfortunately, all windows look out to building walls, so it was a bit claustrophobic. They did a great job renovating this space but it still needs some color or pictures on the walls might help. I did like the way they kept some old stone and used the old fireplace as the closet. It just wasn't a space I wanted to spend much time in except to sleep. Check in was easy but we never spoke to anyone. When I asked questions on how to complete the online check in forms and to clarify the check in time, I never got a response. We ended up just trying the entry code and it let us in. The bathrooms were nice, and the showers were large. Good water pressure and hot water. AC worked great. The beds are basic no frills but comfortable. This is in a great location and very walkable. Lots of restaurants close by and easy to get the hop on hop off bus. We walked up the hill and found a small little place for Fado music one night. We did enjoy our stay in "The Cave".

Location, Location, Location

Terrific location, difficult to locate as no hotel name posted. Had to go by street/house number. I6 step steep stair-way to entry. Self check-in, check-out with email code. Clean, large boutique style room and bathroom. Vehicles are not allowed on passageway/promenade so the taxi drop off is about 50 meters from hotel entrance.

- We didn't receive any check-in info prior to arriving. Check in code didn't work until we were given a new one. - Upon arrival, we were allotted a single room instead of two, and bed sizes were incorrect. - There were no toiletries. When I communicated to Ana, I was asked " why I didn't tell all these things to the cleaning person" when I had the chance. That is not my job nor theirs. The location is good but it is so hard to find because there is only a smal piece of paper stating it is Casa de Baixa.

Could be so nice but...

The property is not convenient for drivers. Not sure where anyone can drop off bags without walking a couple hundred yards, even from a cab. The elevator is on the second floor so you had to haul the bags up a flight. On the high side, the location is excellent and the rooms are clean and comfortable.

Great location and comfy studio type room. Good water pressure and very clean. Drawbacks: thin walls so you can hear noisy neighbors. Also GPS does not give accurate directions and hotel does not give accurate info about parking. Spent an hour circling the city to find hotel and parking.

Charming, clean hotel in the center of Coimbra

Very clean hotel, conveniently located on a pedestrian street, in the heart of Coimbra. Communication was excellent -- we were sent room access codes, making check-in completely seamless.

Great location - no traffic on street so taxi has to drop off at end of street but its an easy walk. Be warned there is a long fight of stairs to first floor then a lift to upper floors. Had a room overlooking the street and was a great spot.

This property is quaint, clean and we had a wonderful stay. It was a little challenging to find. We parked across the street from the Astoria hotel, walked around the hotel and up the hill towards all the shops and there it was. The outside is totally different from the inside. The owners have managed to keep old world charm with updated style. The stairs to the first floor are a little steep. After that there is an elevator. I wouldn’t let that discourage you. If you are looking for a charming, clean and lovely property to stay in I highly recommended this hotel.

Location was excellent but not accessible by car as on pedestrian street. Also, elevator on first floor is only accessible by full flight of stairs. Room looked wonderful and very clean. However, the bed was hard and the pillows not comfortable. The air conditionner was not working. Access code and room number should be provided to customers ahead of time by owner prior to checking, as no staff on site.
