This is a beautiful hotel that is in a great location in the center of Lanjaron, but with some issues.
Upsides:
1. The hotel is beautiful and old, with gorgeous white & gray marble floors, windows that open, and balconies.
2. Excellent location
3. Accommodating of slightly late check-in
4. Guests can use next-door hotel's swimming pool
Downsides:
1. Key locks inside & out. One key for 2 guests means if one goes out, other is locked in or room is unlocked.
2. The WiFi only worked if standing right near the door. It did not extend to the desk, let alone the beds or other areas of the room. When it did work, it was very slow. Often, we needed to go to the lobby to use the internet.
3. Parking in garage costs 8 euros/day. Not mentioned on website.
4. A/C was not working (which was fine with us-- we do not need it), but although we said we did not need it, a repairman said that he had to repair the air conditioning unit while we were in the room. He said he was hired to do so, for future guests. I said that I did not want someone doing electrical/construction work in our room while we were staying there. When I explained that I had paid for this room as a private place, without repair workers doing work in the room with us, he understood and left us. If my Spanish skills had been lesser, though, this would have been quite difficult, and as it was, it was awkward.
5. No microwave or kettle in room for hot water for tea.
*Decent budget hotel, great location.
