Guest House Santa Clara

In Coimbra, we stayed at the Guest House Santa Clara. It was conveniently located, not too far from the historic center. The University sits on top of a hill and although you can walk to it, it was easier to take a bus. The bus stops right outside the guest house.

Parking was easy. There was a free underground lot just a 5-minute walk from the guest house at the Estacionamento Convento São Francisco.

One downside to staying here is that you do need to arrange a check-in time.
