The property was great, the grounds were really nice and the breakfast was good! There's a bus stop right outside the front door (though the road there can be a bit sketchy if waiting for the bus to go into town, as there isn't much in the way of a sidewalk on that side of the street, though there's a little area you can stand by the hotel entrance).
The hotel staff were great. Very friendly and helpful. In particular, Nuno was very helpful. We wanted to rent a car for a day, and he took care of it all, organizing with a local company, had the car delivered to the hotel, and we were able to drop the car back off with the hotel along with the keys to get picked up by the rental company. He also gave us lots of recommendations for local restaurants and the like, and we had a couple really interesting conversations on world history. Overall we had a great stay, would definitely recommend :)
