I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean, equipped with a fridge, TV, and a second bathroom, which was a great convenience. I especially appreciated the ceiling fan in the room during my stay in late May. The hotel's location was superb, within easy walking distance to the places I wanted to visit, close to shops, bars, and restaurants. The staff was welcoming, helpful, and went the extra mile to ensure my comfort. However, the dining options were very basic and a bit confusing for us, so we opted to eat out most of the time.

The hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the city, just a 5-minute walk from the beach, surrounded by charming cafes, restaurants, and plazas. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped with a comfortable double bed, modern amenities, and a separate seating area. The service provided by the extremely friendly and helpful staff, especially Pablo, was top-notch. However, the dining options were a bit lackluster, and the homemade pizza was not impressive.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were incredibly spacious and pristine, offering a smaller attached room with a fridge, TV, and an extra bathroom. The comfort and storage space were just what I needed for a relaxing stay. The service was excellent, with very friendly and helpful staff who even allowed us to store our bicycles onsite. The location was perfect, just a few minutes' walk from the seafront, old town, and bus station, making it convenient to explore the city.
