Loved the patio and the view, even in Feb we were able to enjoy breakfast on the patio, in layers! We also enjoyed the extra large towels, my kids really enjoyed how cozy they could get after showering and the extra tall shower heads. My husband is 6'4" and didn't have to kneel when showering. Marcos was great also. Lots of restaurants walking distance. We took a day trip every day, the location was great for day trips to Porto, Pinhao, Coimbra, Braga, Amarante, etc. Had a great stay.
