The room is small, but it was perfect for my needs and I was only there to sleep. Very friendly and helpful staff. Hostal Alfaro is centrally located and easy walking distance to all the sights I wanted to visit.

The hotel was great and a very good value in a great location. The one thing I would advise is to communicate with the staff well before arrival, given that the Reception is not there until 9am. That said, the team is great and was very welcoming and helpful!
