Casa da Se, Guarda
Guesthouse da Se (Book this guesthouse with Booking.com) is a budget guesthouse popular with young Portuguese travelers and foreign backpackers right on the main square in Guarda on the bus route from Madrid via Salamanca to Porto.
Formally a residencial, the guesthouse is a "project" by a young Portuguese artist, who is restoring the property to its former glory. The building served as a small hospital during the Napoleonic Wars so it certainly has history.
Rooms are compact with antique furnishings and similarly antique showers and toilets. Toilet paper needs to be placed in a plastic bag, for example, not down the loo to spare the drains.
Located next door to a trendy bar, Casa da Se has some lovely azulejos decorating its staircases and at only 10 euros a night per person per night a snip.
The check-in time of 6 pm may be a little inconvenient, but if you are looking for cheap lodging in Guarda, look no further than the Casa da Se which has a common lounge, a washing machine and functional WiFi. The guest house is very close to Guarda Cathedral.
