    Fun interesting experience for a short stay

    • Suite with Terrace

    Alice in Wonderland room: room with terrace means attic room with a roof terrace. I am not very tall compared to my partner, but even I kept hitting my head :), this is just a heads up for the tall people, not a negative comment. No space to put stuff, shelves or closet- this would be an issue in case of a long stay. The bath curtains- looks lovely, but since the shower is fixed to the top, any movement results in the curtains sticking to the body and without them, the carpet and wooden floors would get wet. I’d recommend to make the shower head flexible instead or screwed to the top and considering a different curtain construction. Other than that, it was all nice and fun with nice decor.

    Location-city center, walking distance to everywhere ,great bars and restaurants everywhere, roof view, the self service and quiet inside( only once saw two cleaning ladies, otherwise no one), cleanliness, theme and decor. A lot of stairs, but that was fine for us.

    The beds weren't very comfortable. And there really wasn't much room to open your bag or look through your things. The private bathroom isn't connected to your rooms so just be prepared for that.

    Great location in the heart of the old city. There is a kitchen and a fantastic view from the balcony.

    It's a small, cozy hotel in the historic center of the city. We stayed only one night, but I'd happily live there for a few days. The atmosphere is really like in a collector's home.

    Nothing we didn’t like - but we did bump our heads on the low ceilings!

    We loved our room with the rooftop terrace, listening to church bells and the swifts, and admiring the views. The place has character and is well-maintained. Definitely ‘no pais das maravilhas’ - in wonderland.

    Oh my, the flights of stairs to climb!!! Got a lot of additional exercise - good for heart health! 😁

    Loved that our dog Stella was welcome! ❣️🙏 We enjoyed our suite - with balcony, bathroom, a clothesline outside one of our windows, the comfy bed… etc; warm welcome / sense of hospitality & responsiveness of host - all good! Appreciated the shared space - kitchen & washing machine - so nice to be able to use! The place is funky and it works well! ❣️Also, fabulous location! We liked that it was near (1/2 block away), but not on the very busy pedestrian walkway - full of commerce, restaurants, cafes, nighttime activities. Even 1/2 block off the busy street made a difference in terms of calm & quieter.

    As I have to say something.. there was some building going on, but that's just temporarily. Also, the girls don't cook fresh eggs in the morning after you snip your fingers. Nor do they bring you bruschetta with salmon and olives... could have been a lifesaver when hungover.

    Great hosts, we like the two girls. They are nice & do their absolute best to make you feel at home. Gave us good tips as well. Living room is a great place to get drunk before hitting the city. Excellent excellent. Also really nice if you're biking!

    This place is so charming! I was in the Robinson Crusoe room, and I absolutely loved it! It is at the top in an attic-like space so only appropriate for a smaller to average sized person. Perfect for me! There was a sunlight that kept it feeling open. If I come to Braga again, this is where I’ll stay.

    Catarina was amazing! She made my stay really special because she is so friendly and helpful.The location was fantastic and I was able to walk to most of the main attractions very easily. The room was charming and comfortable and it was no problem going to the private bathroom outside the room. Catarina helped me with my carry-on bag because stairs are difficult for me these days. I highly recommend staying here as the other rooms are lovely too, with each one having a special theme.

    The location is in the heart of Braga's old city, 10 minutes walk from bus and train station. The staff is nice, you can always contact them if you have any questions. Catarina is also a great person to talk with on different topics. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable. It is quiet in the evenings, just great for a nice sleep after a long walking day. The shared terrace is nice to enjoy your morning breakfast and to see the sunsets.

    Steep stairs, not for handicapped people, but this is a classic in Portuguese private lodgings.

    Host Catarina is a wonderful person. She makes you feel at home. Exceptional location, 3 mn walk to the Cathedral, right in the heart of the city. Easy to find, 10-15 mn walk from the train station, 10 mn walk to the bus station. Easy access to buses to Bom Jesus and Monateiro de Tibaes Room was spotless clean, with beautiful antique furniture. The terrace overlooks the streets, nice view on Braga rooftops. Tea/coffee amenities, common well equipped kitchen

    Can't imagine a more convenient location in Braga to see all the sights in the historical zone. One of the nicest and friendliest guesthouse managers we've ever met, Catarina went out of her way to make sure to help us find great restaurants during a busy national holiday. Would highly recommend this guesthouse.

    Great location on a very pretty tree-lined pedestrian street, close to cafes, restaurants and tourist sites. Warm and welcoming receptionist, explaining all about the house and places to visit. Comfortable room and bed. Mine had a sink, chest of drawers and twin beds. No chair, wardrobe or desk but plenty of access to public dining area, seating area, kitchen and washing machine. Good value. My room had a private toilet and shower which was a short walk away from the room - this was as advertised and caused me no concern, probably also reflected in the price. Would certainly stay again
