Beds are very comfortable. Clean, crisp bedding. Lots of towels. Bathtub fircsoaking tired old bones. Well stocked breakfast was included. Lots of variety and the room is full of windows, for a great view of surrounding area. Very close to the historucal fort and on a bus route.

Hotel Lara / Valença - Portugal

Hotel grande, mas envelhecido. Quarto tinha cheiro de coisa velha. Desci do trem e fui pedir para deixar a mochila no hotel. Encontrei a funcionária almoçando no balcão da recepção. Mal humorada, foi logo dizendo que aquela não era hora de check in, mas ia me atender. Nunca vi isso! Café da manhã bom! Para visitar a imensa Fortaleza de Valença é só atravessar a rua do hotel.
