This hotel is in old town inside the walls. Only small cars can drive there as the cobblestone streets are narrow. If you arrive in a large car or bus you park below and walk up. View from the public spaces - check-in area, terrace and dining room is fantastic but our room - 202 - in the building opposite registration is on street level with tiny windows and of course no view just looking at the other building across a narrow street. Being on the first floor makes the room dark as well. Ceilings are not high although ok. Room is a good size however, with enough space for yoga. Bathroom has some decorative tiles but not tiled in the bathtub with a handheld shower. Bed is high and firm. Windows have blackout wooden shutters. No coffee tea making facilities in room but small fridge. Only one night table and one chair. Shower is just a handheld but with good water pressure. Floor is tiled with area rug. Light in closet doesn't go off but you can close the room door or use as night light. Things are clean, the room is painted all white with wood framing. Room got a bit cold - heat didn't work much first day but there are many more quilts in the closet which we used. WiFi doesn't work well, keeps dropping during the day. Standard continental breakfast. Short walk to the Marvao castle. Being in old town means there are not much around in terms of shopping although there are some restaurants. read more
