Buena ubicación, reformado
Hostal reformado cómodo, limpio y en buena ubicación para poder ir andando a la playa, restaurantes...
Eso sí, no nos olvidemos de que es un hostal y además antiguo: paredes de "papel" y puertas muy antiguas que hacen que si a los de la habitación de al lado les da por ponerse a hablar de madrugada puedas seguir su conversación sin problemas... Y ya lo de dormir para otro día. Hay que tener suerte con los vecinos.

Can’t fault it
Can’t fault this place. Stayed here before. We did 11 days to use it as a base for going to different places. Friendly, and we managed with our little bit of Spanish and their little bit of English. Rooms large enough and walk in shower a bonus. Cleaned every day. Will be coming back.

Muy recomendable relación calidad vs precio
La experiencia ha sido muy positiva, estoy habituado a instalaciones de superior categoría y en calidad de servicio no tienen nada que envidiar, la atención personal inmejorable y la limpieza muy correcta. La ubicación muy buena para ir a playa asi como disfrutar del entorno de la población.

J'ai apprécié la proximité du centre ville. Hôtel propre.
Impossible se garer à proximité, nous avons eu une chambre donc la fenêtre donnait sur une petite cour intérieure. Pas moyen de voir un bout de ciel, donc très désagréable.
Le site montre de belles photos avec balcon mais ne parle pas de chambres intérieure. Le prix ne justifiait pas la chambre que nous avons eu.
