"This hotel is a gem. The rooms are huge! Beds are comfy! They have an onsite infinity pool that provides a great view of the city with wonderful places to sit all over. There is a lovely sauna that is perfect after a day of walking around the historic city. All of the must sees are within a 2-10 minute walk. Close enough to all of the attractions but far enough from the university which gets hopping when the sun goes down. The breakfast was very good. My only regret - staying only one night."

"Clean and tidy cosy little flat. We had the flat 001, which as is own entrance at number 54, separate from the 52. The outside swimming pool looked lovely, unfortunately wasn't hot enough to enjoy it. Everything in the flat was perfect, even a washing/ drying machine. Which with little ones is a plus.. The only downside would be the noise of the guests of the other rooms. And the cars and people outside. You can ear them very well, like they are next to you... But that wasn't a reason to reduce my review. Check in / out was fast and easy. It's a great location, walking distance to everywhere around Evora. "
