I was happy with my stay here, the accomodation was pretty easy to find and had really good and secure parking for my motorbike in a private secure area just a short walk from the hotel. The hotel doesnt have a bar but there is a decent bar/cafe litterally just around the corner and which is really convenient. Additionally it's not long a walk into the 'old town' probably about 23 minutes or so and there are are a number of bars/restuarants there. There was a fridge in the room with water, drinks etc at reasonable prices. There are also shops/supermarkets near by in both left and right directions on the main road when leaving the hotel. Breakfast was good and probably better than I had expected - the man at reception was helpful at all times and I would be happy to stay here again for an overnight stay if passing through the area

Nothing really - it was all good and up to my expectations. I was particullarly pleased with the secure parking for my motorbike in the secure covered area.

Wow, what a find! Beautifully appointed room, lovely staff and a special mention of the amazing breakfast. We couldn't believe the choice for such a fair price. Free off street parking was a bonus. We did drive into the old town as it is a bit of a walk but you could do it, lovely area to walk around with heaps of restaurants and bars. Laundromat just around the corner in case that's important to you (we needed it!)

After reading the other reviews, I can confirm that it is all true! Room was great, bathroom was fab, bed was excellent and I had 2 great nights' sleep! The staff were really nice and attentive, especially the young woman who was in the breakfast room... and breakfast was amazing; really complete with sweet and savoury options and lots of them!!

there was nothing I didn't like but it was a good 15 minutes walk from the centre to the hotel ( but very pleasant and what I expected) so if that is not for you I suggest you choose somewhere nearer.

Our room was a great size and facing back of property so was quiet as well.Good shower with hot water .Check in was good and the receptionist was a lovely man who was cheerful and helpful . We could walk into the centre of the town and we did that and walked to the castelo ( castle ) as well .Parking was a great bonus as well .

We had no issues at all but just a little advice for anyone driving by car as we missed entrance first time round .As soon as you see the hotel sign you turn right up a small lane and the undercovered parking is on the right hand side about 50 meters up .

My husband and I would like to thank hotel Santa Apolonia so very much for all their help with arranging two taxis to take us and our bicycles to Rabano de Aliste, Spain, 50k away, to enable us to continue our trip. Thank you once again. Wendy and Rob Dixon

Hotel staff was helpful and friendly. Spacious room, Toilet was big. and clean. Enough pillows and Towel in the room.. lovely breakfast, many items in the breakfast sound proof room. Totally I'm very satisfied and I recommend this place to stay. See you again lovely Santa Appolonia.

I don't find any thing wrong in terms of money Everything in our need was ready Only problem, no open dining place

Rooms small but very clean, comfortable and quiet. New looking bathroom. Typical but very good breakfast in pleasant dining room. Exceptionally friendly staff. Perfect location for events at the Instituto Polytecnico.

I liked it all.

Staff, room, entrance gate, breakfast (very delicious) was all good. For guest, essential needs like water for bathing, towel, soap, frize (inside water), well dressed bed, TV, etc. Staff are friendly nature and best for interaction.

Big, comfortable and luxurious room with a balcony. Great to have a fridge and a kettle in the room. Very nice and modern bathroom. The hotel is very easy to get to from main roads and not too far from the old town. Private parking with a canopy. Very friendly and helpful staff. Amazing breakfast!

Only one door card was given, but it wasn't really an issue.

As typical of Portuguese people, we were greeted with a smile. I needed laundry service because I had motion sickness during the long bus ride. They cleaned my new scarf and jacket without charge! They came back beautiful. Served lovely breakfast in the morning. Will return.
