This hotel is so perfectly located on a small plaza only 2 blocks from the center of the historic center. Hotel is an old building, so room layout is going to be tight. Well priced for what you receive. Young man who worked day shift was super helpful and kind. Evening staff not so much. No hot water in evenings, so be sure to shower in the morning.

Centrally located. Safe, rustic feel. Within walking to the cathedral. Friendly staff. Continental breakfast was basic. Rainfall shower had nice hot water. Clean. For the price, it’s more than adequate. Parking off site is very easy and convenient reasonable price.

It’s a centuries old building with interesting construction quirks. There are many sizes and styles of rooms. Ours was upstairs viewing the plaza outside through opened wooden doors. It was charming though small, especially the bathroom, and with limited space to put things. Bedding was excellent and warm for winter nights. It’s located about 3 blocks from the cathedral and main plaza.

Every thing was wrong, no elevator available and we got switched the third level, toilet was not flushing on day one. The bedding smelled like body odor. I think the price of the room is definitely not worth it.

A very Spanish style hotel with high ceilings and friendly staff. Very close the city center with lots of dining options and easy taxi access. Highly recommend this facility and very low cost, especially if you are on a budget.
