Excellent hotel, especially for the price. The hotel does not have a parking however there was one just across the street, very convenient, but very expensive. 30 euros overnight (!!)

Beautiful hotel and great price/quality ratio. The only problem we had was parking. The hotel does not offer parking or a valet to attend to the car. The hotel recommended a parking lot but it was too far walking for us (seniors) and we had to park across the street where the price was high (30 euros just overnight). Other than that, everything was very nice. Room, staff, food, drinks, etc

Not the best experience
Got a room with the word shower experience I ever had, even comparing with stays in multiple locations in Africa etc. telling staff about it, message was just - “nothing we can do, water pressure is as it is” without them actually knowing anything. After taking a shower you did not feel like you had a shower, you struggled to have water all over you! Took 2 days for them to acknowledge it and moved me to different room. Not even a small compensation or anything. This is not at all what you would expect from a hotel of this standard, or expected standard! Very disappointing.

Nos hemos quedado varias veces y nos gusta mucho la atención del personal y el hotel en general. Recomendaríamos un poco de más limpieza, ya que esta vez hubo una gotera y el techo, junto con el tapiz se veían muy descuidados; al igual que el mobiliario con mucho polvo la mayoría de los días (estuvimos 10).
