Nice stay

We enjoyed our stay here. We stayed in a suite with the extra beds for our kids. It was clean and comfortable. The pool was great. 15 min walk to the old town of Coimbra was the only drawback. Also, limited food options at the property and immediate surroundings on a Sunday We would stay again though
