Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has character with modern amenities, but I missed having beverages like tea or coffee available. Despite the poly sheets and occasional sewage smells, it may not be ideal for a romantic stay.
The hotel offers comfortable and spacious rooms overlooking beautiful gardens, despite them being referred to as 'cells' reminiscent of a convent. The service is friendly and helpful, although struggled with resetting tables. Its location in a charming Spanish town near historical sites is ideal for exploration. The dining options, while good, could be considered overpriced. The hotel boasts a mix of positives and negatives worth considering.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel! The rooms were large, intriguingly furnished, well decorated, clean, and comfortable with a private balcony and effective air-con. The service was extremely helpful and courteous. The location was exceptionally picturesque, with a definite sense of stepping back in time to a quieter age. The dining experience was very good, with a wide range of fresh local produce offered. The facilities were fantastic with everything I needed for a comfortable stay.
