Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Small rooms for groups — One guest noted that the 'Quadruple Room' described as a large apartment for four was actually a small room. Check room dimensions before booking if you need ample space.
- Location is a bit out of the centre — The pousada is about a 10-minute drive from the historic centre, so you'll need to walk, bike, or take a car to get to the main attractions.
- Limited comfort and facilities ratings — Comfort and facilities both score 7.5, the lowest categories, suggesting that the rooms and amenities are basic and may not suit those expecting extra comforts.
