    smooth check-in
    no elevator

    The check-in process was very smooth with a friendly multilingual staff.

    There is no elevator, and you must carry your luggage up 15 steps to reach the hotel on the 2nd floor.

    great location
    quiet atmosphere

    would definitely come back there

    The hotel's location is perfect, just a short 5-min walk to la Torre del Reloj. My room had an air conditioning unit, flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with free toiletries. The atmosphere is super quiet and secure. Plus, there’s a public bath for relaxation and a mini supermarket downstairs for convenience.

    stylish decor
    delicious breakfast
    small bathroom

    I had a wonderful 3-night stay! The stylish room featured beautiful wooden furniture and a captivating mural that added charm. The breakfast at the nearby cafe was absolutely delicious, although reaching it took a bit of a walk. Just a heads up, the bathroom was quite small, which might be a challenge for some. Overall, I would absolutely return in the future!

    cozy room
    great breakfast
    spa services
    lack of natural light

    I had a lovely time here, especially enjoying the cozy double room with a balcony and the great breakfast served at the on-site cafe. The hotel also offered soothing spa services and a nice pool for relaxation. However, the room could use a bit more natural light, but that didn't take away much from my stay! 😊
