    dinner service
    room amenities

    the location was somewhat convenient, making it hard to forgive the lack of essential amenities in my suite, like a kettle or any glasses. disgraced by the rushed dinner service that turned my dining experience into a race, i expected to be recognized with maybe an upgrade or a complimentary gesture, but alas, that didn’t happen. i just couldn’t!

    spa bath
    simple breakfast
    dim hallway lighting

    The spa bath was a fantastic way to unwind after a long day on the Camino. it truly made my stay enjoyable. The breakfast, although simple, was enough to kickstart my day. Just a heads up, the lighting in the hallways can be a bit dim at times.

    fantastic location
    spacious room
    limited breakfast options

    The location was fantastic, just a short walk to the Templars Castle, which was great for our kids. We enjoyed the clean, spacious triple room, and the soundproof window helped keep things quiet when the kids needed sleep.

    My wife says that breakfast options could improve.

    Decent Stay with Potential

    The location is fabulous, a short walk to historical sites. Our room felt spacious and clean. Consider requesting extra pillows upon check-in for added comfort. Breakfast options were limited, so plan to explore nearby eateries. The mattress could use an upgrade for better sleep.

    great location
    spacious room
    welcoming staff
    faint lighting

    The location is unbeatable, just a short walk to the Templars Castle and the beautiful old town. The spacious room I stayed in featured a spa bath, perfect for soothing those tired muscles after walking the Camino. The staff were welcoming, and I appreciated the clean, well-maintained facilities throughout my stay.

    Faint hallway lighting.

    convenient location
    friendly staff
    limited breakfast options
    hard mattress
    insufficient toiletries

    The location is fantastic, just a short distance from the castle and old town, making it perfect for exploring. The staff were amiable and attentive, ensuring a warm welcome. However, the room lacked basic amenities like sufficient toiletries, and the mattress felt uncomfortably hard. Breakfast options were minimal and could improve significantly, especially for those starting their day early.

    This place suits me perfectly. It provides 24-hour reception, a bar/lounge area, and fast wi-fi. On my first stay, the staff helped me return documents I accidentally left. I highly recommend it for a romantic escape.

    helpful staff

    Recommend it for groups

    The location is superb, only a short walk to the castle. The staff was really helpful, especially when they suggested local tapas bars. We ended up eating our weight in tapas! You can definitely make a night of it just snacking around, trust me.

    It wasn’t exactly a bargain but still good value for what we got.
