    excellent wall
    lack of dining
    far location

    Excellent wall depicting Camino stages adds charm.

    I was disappointed with the lack of restaurant services during my stay. After a long day, I learned that the restaurant was closed on weekends, which left me searching for food options nearby. The location was frustratingly far from the city center, requiring lengthy taxi rides that could take too long to secure.

    convenient location for camino walkers
    limited dining options

    The hotel is situated right next to the Camino Ingles, making for perfect early morning jogs or peaceful walks.

    It was frustrating that the restaurant was closed on the weekend, limiting dining options for guests.

    children's playground
    cozy living area
    stuffy room

    Loved our family stay here! The children's playground was a huge hit with my daughter, while we enjoyed the cozy living area for relaxing. Plus, the hotel is right on the Camino Ingles.

    My wife says that the room was pretty stuffy.

    I came, I saw, I reviewed

    A charming stay near the Camino, perfect for winding down post-hike. Clean rooms with modern amenities offer comfort after a long day. A quick taxi ride of 10 euros gets you to the city center, making it ideal for exploring. Worth a stop for those finishing their pilgrimage.

    great stay but some minor inconveniences

    The staff were incredibly polite and made my stay comfortable. The room was impressively clean after a long day of walking, which made a huge difference. I loved the lovely garden view, adding to the tranquility of the stay.

    The location is a bit far from the main attractions, which required taxi rides or longer walks.

    The spacious room had a lovely garden view. Friendly reception staff were quite helpful in arranging transportation for exploring the area. Coffee options during breakfast were absolutely delicious.

    Some noise from hallway cleaning could be improved.

    breakfast crowd
    transportation delays

    The stay offered a pleasant experience, especially after a long day of walking. The spacious room was well-equipped, and I appreciated the modern updates combined with the hotel’s charming old ambiance. Enjoying breakfast with signature meats for a small fee was a delightful treat. However, the location being 3 miles from the main attractions necessitated taxi rides or longer walks, which might not suit everyone, and occasional delays were encountered at breakfast due to the crowd.

    delightful coffee
    limited dining options
    unhelpful staff
    noise disturbance

    Although it's a bit far from the city center, the hotel provides a cozy place to recover after a long walk on the Camino, with a clean and comfortable room that stands out amidst some dated decor. The coffee served was delightful, adding a nice touch to the overall experience. However, the lack of dining options due to the restaurant's closure was disappointing, compounded by a gruff receptionist when I sought help. An annoying noise from hallway vacuuming also affected sleep quality.

    jogging paths
    friendly staff
    closed restaurant

    The staff was super friendly, making our stay enjoyable. The hotel's location was just a short ride to the historic center, which was a big plus. I’d definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to explore the area with friends.

    One issue was that the restaurant was closed during our stay, which made finding food a challenge since other options nearby weren't available either.
