Hotel de Moura

10/10 Excellent
"Firstly, the staff there was fantastic. We had had a problem with our rental car in Evora and ended up carless in Moura, but had reserved a night kayaking outing the evening of the day we got there. We told the staff at the hotel and they volunteered to arrange a taxi for us. Then we had said something about having to leave on the early bus the next day and they shifted the breakfast a half an hour earlier so that we could eat before we left. The staff was friendly, considerate and went out of their way to be helpful. The hotel itself was very clean, the AC worked great (important when its 43C outside), our room was very quiet and the beds comfortable. I'll go back there again if I get back to Moura, which I probably will with the nearby lake, stargazing and good food. A big thank you to the staff there!"
