Just perfect - so happy with our choice!
Pros:

The property was central in the old town right next to a wonderful bar with pleasing live music

Not loud and overwhelming

Alejandro at the desk was very kind
And accommodating. We made a mistake on one of our bookings and he straightened it out without any problems.

Breakfast was wonderful!

There’s a small pool in the center that was just right for cooling off and lazing about.

Everything was very tasteful and refined.

Cons:

It was great

If I had to guess I would say that they give the worst rooms to people who booked with Booking.com. I’m not really sure
Pros:

The maids were also the breakfast staff and they were wonderful.

Cons:

Pool was freezing and we offered to skim it. Limited lounges. The room they gave us the first night was fine. Inside a locked off court yard, very secure. Then they moved us to the only room not in the courtyard. No security between the room door and the hectic noisy town square and adjoining brewery. Did not get much sleep. When we first got into the room the toilet seat was barely on and held by only one bolt. The man at reception came in and changed it out. Then in the morning the water in the shower was cold. We wondered if it was just because the faucet was mismarked, but all I could get from the faucet was cold. Later the reception came in to check and said if we had let the faucet marked as cold run long enough it would have gotten hot!!!! Safe was broken. Do not even consider their “standard” room.
