    There were a few sources of noise: thin walls, not properly closing door to the balcony.

    The personnel was very friendly. It was very good to have the opportunity of a parking garage. The room was small but offered enough space for two people. The bathroom was small with only space for one person to shower. The bed was small but comfortable because it only had one mattress. Nearby were many very good restaurants.

    We need to walk to the main hotel behind our apartment to get the keys. Was stranded in front of the apartment and also going to the back but couldn’t find the reception. Finally a kind woman showed us the main hotel with a different name from the one we booked.

    Big TV with Netflix. The location is very close to the bus stop to Aveiro. Bike rental available. Short distance to the beach.

    No lift to go to your room. There was a concert going on at night and so I couldn't sleep much at all with the noise. Also the AC was making noises as well.

    The breakfast was superb and the staff were helpful. The room was in front of the river, as promised. however then you must go to the other street at a different location to have breakfast.

    The toilet sometimes smelt bad from the piping system and you couldn't block the drain from the sink if you needed it for some reason. The shower was loose and couldn't keep still on the wall when the water was on, but luckily we wad a screwdriver and managed to screw it tighter and sort it out ourselves. The reception is in another building and they don't inform you of that. We had to walk around and call the property in order to find how to enter the premisses for the first time. The breakfast is not that good at all. For the price you can easily have a better breakfast at a bakery/café nearby. When we went for breakfast, the room was pretty dark and silent and the tables weren't fully set with all the cutlery, plates and cups so we had to look around to find them and there were no spoons available (the table was supposed to be set). There was only another family in the room, no one else. The place didn't feel cozy at all. The juices were basically very diluted squash and the coffee was disgracefully served in a thermos. Also, the bakery selection was not great and there wasn't much eating options overall. One of the ladies there, which I think was spanish, was very friendly, though. Another thing is I spoke with 3 different people at the reception, on different days, and only one of them could inform me of the different breakfast prices for adults and children and it's not very defined. You can't really tell how much they will charge for a child having breakfast. They said it depends if they eat a lot or not, which for me it doesn't make sense. My 2 year old eats more than my 7 year old for example. They could implement a smaller fee for children aged 5-12 for example, instead of charging full price like they did at the end. The younger child was free of charge.

    The room was big in size and it had a working fridge, which is great for snacks, specially with kids. The bathroom had a window, so there was natural lighy in there and it could be aired. There was also good AC and a balcony with some chairs and a table. It was a nice room for 4 people, since it could also be split in 2 areas. Lots of free parking in front of the location.

    Check in is also in the Costa Nova Hotel, that info could be more clear after booking.

    A lovely place to stay on Costa Nova, close to the beaches, sand dunes, the sunset! It has a breakfast in the nearby Costa Nova Hotel that is solid. Room is big and with a view on the laguna (not the ocean or the sunset, thats on the west side). Thick curtains block the sunrise, don't worry 🙂 Free parking everywhere!
