Relaxing Spa Experience

My stay was elevated by the therapeutic massage services offered at the spa. Even though it was a small facility, the massage I received was fantastic and really helped me unwind after a long day of meetings. I would highly recommend allocating some time to pamper yourself while visiting.

I found Coimbra Hotel & Spa to be a decent place to stay in Bissau, especially considering its convenient downtown location. The rooms were a bit outdated, but they were clean and functional, accommodating my needs for the trip. However, dining options fell short; the restaurant had great potential but was marred by poor service and an unfriendly atmosphere. Overall, it was an average experience, not entirely worth the high price tag.
