This is only an option for you, if you choose the hostel part of Antunes, the hotel rooms are not worth the price. It's windy and cold, rooms are worn down (but clean) and I doubt that the single wooden staircase and dark hallways would be approved firesafe in another place.

The Antunes is a clean and friendly guesthouse close to the university. The neighborhood contains stately buildings as well as student housing. The staff was very friendly, although I would not necessarily rely on their restaurant recommendations. The bedroom was clean and of adequate size, though a bit drab. The bathroom was quite small, with the toilet on an odd... More

We choosed Pensao Residencial Antunes taking it from our well-known turist guide, where it was indicated like "small, nice and creaking pensao, family managment, reasonable price". So, it was exactly that way: we were given a second floor room, and the wooden stairs (no elevator) were a problem with all our bags. But the room was ok: not recent, but... More

I enjoyed... More

We had a very nice stay at this inn -- we were given a lot of help by the staff and it was very comfortable except for the lack of heat (there is a wall heater in the room, as in many places). This place has a lot of character and is very relaxed. It could use a little updating,... More

We enjoyed our stay at Antunes in Feb 05. We had a reasonably large room (for three) even though we were only two. Lovely stripped wooden floors, etc in this characterful older building. The bathroom was OK - clean but small. The breakfast was just OK, literally bread with topping and tea/coffee, but enough to get us going. The staff... More
