“Breakfast was delicious and sensational, with local pastries and fresh bread, for instance. The location was close to the town centre, the best coffee shop, and the tower, and downhill to the river. The street food restaurant Duarte's Comida de Rua is 500 metres away.”

“This vintage guesthouse is charming! The family suite was spacious and spotlessly clean. The best part was the breakfast — a generous spread with delicious pastries and fruits. Maria, the host, was warm and shared great tips based on our interests.”

“The family suite was impressively spacious, with well-done decor that added a lot of character. The breakfast spread was good and offered an abundance of fresh fruits and pastries to kickstart the day. The staff were lovely, providing tips.
