The building is remarkable and the staff are excellent. It's a very laid back quite feel. Not much to do around the Pousada, but an excellent place to get a bit of rest, recharge and enjoy the local wine. the building is really special.

Amazing property. Front desk staff was underwhelming; felt like we were imposing on them. The staff in the hotel was just the opposite, though, and very welcoming. We came for the uniqueness of the property and that fully met our expectations. Not much to do in the immediate local area, but good hiking nearby.

Hotel is a bit isolated/difficult to get to but worth the effort. Located in a very small village. Not too far from Braga which is worth visiting. Also not very far from Porto airport.

Cristina, SEattle, WA

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Room comfort
According to the website I had reserved a room with a double bed and two single beds. The room we got was nothing like that. It was very small with a temporary single bed very small, and not adequate size for an adult. When I talked to the hotel about it, they told me that there is not a room with the two single beds and a double bed. If that is the case, the Expedia site was incorrect.
