GREAT location and check in and out processed were very easy. The room is very clean, and awesome that they had free coffee/mini fridge items included.
It was just what we needed location wise. A huge turnoff about the is that there was mold all around the shower and patch work in the bathroom.

Simple and effective central stay
Very good and basic hotel with contactless entry. Couldn't see any drink facilities in the room but I also didn't ask anyone about them . Also very central and near to everything!!! Would stay again

Location is very close to the old town and to the Zurriola Beach. Room was very clean.
Unfortunately, the house is currently nested, which clouds the view from the terrace. The room was quite small, unfortunately it is very noisy. We had the misfortune to have 2 English-speaking guests in the next room who talked loudly until 1:00 am and from 6:00 am in the morning. However, this is not the accommodation's fault...
