Liked: Cleanliness
The Luggage is a beautiful property however my family of 4 adults was assigned to stay at the attic so the ceiling is an angled rooftop the beds are underneath you can easily bump your head anytime. Uncomfortable beds specifically bumpy pillows need an upgrade. Had difficulty carrying our luggage up n down the room no elevator. Otherwise good breakfast with fresh fruits, walk to University, parked our luggage after checkout. Glad we only have to stay for one night. I’ll give it a rating of 3.5.

Spacious

The hotel itself is nice. In a older building but in good condition. We found the staff friendly and willing to offer advice. The downside is there is no dedicated parking. We had to find parking on a near by side street which was not optimal. Also the hotel is not within easy walking distance so an uber will probably be neccessary

Great location and more!

My room was very clean and comfortable and had everything I needed. I particularly liked the breakfast room and the breakfast they had which was about €10 and very much worth it. The breakfast room is sunny and has a view that is so lovely. The neighborhood is great and very close to the university. I thought the staff was very nice and accommodating. They were good hosts.

Coimbra

Place was very nice. The only problem is the stairs. There is no elevator. Also it is on a hilly road. That was difficult to walk. We had to take Uber everywhere because of those hilly roads.

Terrific place. A beautiful hotel with excellent breakfast and views. It's also easy to get to via cab or uber (unlike staying in the historic center where cars can't go). It's a short walk to everything. Coimbra is lovely too.
