Casa da balconada Sweet little place practically next door to the cathedral. Just six rooms on three floors. Cristina, the owner and amazing one-woman operator of this fairly-recently renovated mini hotel, manages to keep things running smoothly. The rehab of this ancient edifice was done with style and panache while attaining the most efficient usage of square inches/centimeters seen on land. If you want to be near all of the tourist action of the casco viejo, you can’t find a better location. Each floor of Casa da Balconada has two rooms. We spent the first two of our four nights in the front room facing the street. It was a Friday and Saturday and things got boisterous at times out on the street. We moved to the back twin-bedded room facing an internal patio, and it was perfectly quiet. The beds are comfortable, the heating and the Wi-Fi worked well. And Cristina was a charming attentive hostess. If you are not young and fit the steep narrow stairs to the three floors could be a challenge. We are not young, but we are fit, and the stairs were not a problem for us. Highly recommend Cristina’s Casa da Balconada.

Pros: next to the cathedral, area is very safe and clean, room is modern/updated and clean, and staff is very friendly and helpful Cons: next the cathedral (bell tolls every 30 mins), you need to walk and carry all you luggage/gear in and out, no elevator (but staff will carry your luggage/gearupstairs good luck getting it down.
