Casa do Olival

Easy walk to the river, quiet, very clean, close to a supermarket.

Our room was spacious, clean with a nice, big balcony with an amazing view. Parking is easy on the front side. Centre of the town is 20 min walk, Lidl is 3 min walk. Perfect place for a short stay but also a good base to discover Douro-valley. Absolutely recommended.

Great location; walking distance to the Douro River boat cruises, the Douro Museum and the Train station. Parking outside the property was ample and readily available. Our room opened on to a beautiful garden and views of the mountains.

Lack of human interaction, especially problematic if one needs some guidance.

The location was very convenient. The size of the room and bathroom was ample.

The air conditioner was so loud. It kept us up at night unbearable! The kitchen facilities were dismal, not even wine glasses, which is unthinkable in Portugal! The microwave door was left open because it didn’t function correctly. The water heater kettle doesn’t shut off automatically. there is no air-conditioning in either the common living area or the common kitchen area. The TVs were so old the one in the bedroom was so small my mobile phone screen was bigger! Neither Amazon, nor Netflix would allow videos to be played on the units because of their lack of secure capability.
