Comfortable but not sure about the glass box bathroom
Pros:

The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. Ohtel is well positioned to walk both to the city and Oriental bay..

Cons:

The glass bathroom means there is very little privacy apart from a curtain which can be drawn. Not ideal if travelling with a friend.Bathroom entrance is also quite narrow so could be hazardous in the dark.
There are no hooks in the bathroom, or any space to hang clothes which is an issue as the shower is open and wets most of the floor. The towel rail is very small.

Room was not made up until after 3.30 in the afternoon which is not ideal if you want to have an afternoon rest whilst on holiday. Staff said that this was a normal time to service rooms not being turned around.

Pros:

Tot! La ubicació és idònia, la habitació perfecte i molt ben cuidada, el tracte amb el personal - sobretot la rebuda per part de la Sandra. El cafè inclòs amb fins i tot llet vegetal!

Cons:

La dutxa no té porta i és una mica incòmode

Pros:

Spacious, clean, great bath tub, great location.

Heater was very inefficient and took a long time to heat the room. The light swithces were rare and it was difficult to figure out.

Quality with Quirkiness
Pros:

Ohtel Wellington is in a league of its own for quality. The location, the staff, the food, the room and the decor all came together for us.

Paco is a great host as were all the staff who went out of their way to be friendly and accommodating whilst also running the Cafe.

Rooms were quirky with mid-century decor but not overdone, just comfortable.

Our room overlooked a piece of the harbour, and it was a pleasure to open the curtains in the morning and see a ferry passing by.

Cons:

Nothing.

Pros:

We enjoyed the atmosphere of the room and the quiet location. Generous sized room. We appreciated the closeness to town and other places to eat. Including walking distance to a supermarket to buy some snacks. Underfloor heating for the bathroom was a nice thing to have in the colder months.
