I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, especially considering the reasonable price. My only suggestion would be to provide an iron for guests, which would enhance the overall experience. The staff were friendly, polite, and always ready to assist.
There was NO air conditioning available in the hotel room. There was NO housecleaning service for three days stay.

We will give it a miss next time!!
Dated decoration and shower room. Lack of kitchen facilities. Good reception staff. Not worth staying here again next time.

Comfortable budget friendly accommodation
Very reasonably priced accommodation, comfortable and in a decent location. Friendly helpful staff. The only downside was no sheets changed in a 5 day stay, would have been good to have 1 change.
Excellent place with most things in order. Shower head at 2 meters high in a loose fitting is not a good idea.

Gives basic a new meaning
The room is clearly old and dingy, with chipped kitchenette cabinet, worn countertop, and 2 burner cooktop that did not heat properly. No appliances were provided, not even an electric water kettle.The window looked directly into the neighbor's window and had no curtains, so the heavy metal shade had to be kept pulled down. With no other window or ventilation that made the room dark, hot and stuffy. No fan was provided. Utensils were minimal. The photo did not represent the reality. I could not recommend this accommodation.
👍
Great place, freindly staff, perfect location. Good stay for good price 👍

Location convenient to everything - bus/train stations, cafes, bakeries, supermarkets, museums. Half a block from a long pedestrian walkway. Great to be able to cook. Price is very good and staff very friendly and helpful. Only minus - Noise from other guests.
Room was well kept and clean. Unfortunately the bed was hard and the building was very noisy. I could hear every tap/ shower running and every door closing. It sounded like the hotel was very active all night, whether that was a once off the night I stayed or not, I don't know. but the place is echoey, has lots of rooms and needs dome soundproofing.
Minimal care of property. No air ventilation. Not a comfortable place.

Good English spoken at reception. Room was disappointing. Very hot, no fan and very noisy outside particularly as we had to have the window open at all times. A good 40 minute walk to the central attractions and at least the same again to the beaches. The local buses are, however, very good. The room does not have enough facilities to allow you to self cater. We barely managed breakfast each morning. But the fridge with ice box was useful. There are some local bars and restaurants which were ok. Not much English spoken, as per the rest of this area of Spain, but people were very accommodating. Good wi fi.
Overall I probably wouldn't book here again due to the location and the hotel facilities.
The hotel is centrally located, near to many restaurant and transport services.

Expected more. It says they have parking available and they do, but you have to walk for about 10 min and is a public parking (Plaza de Méjico). The space, specially the bathroom is really small. Other than that it was clean, people is friendly, is a walk away from the city. It was my first experience with this type of rental as I usually go to hotels, maybe that’s the reason for my disappointment.
Staff very friendly and let us leave bags before and after check in. Room clean, modern and perfect for few nights. Great area close to bars, shops and restaurants. Would defo recommend.
