A great base for exploring Santiago and Galicia
Pros:

This is a lovely hotel, in a great location, opposite the Abasto Market. The room was charming, with a balcony overlooking the private gardens. The furnishing was tasteful, with two armchairs, a wooden-framed bed, table, and plenty of storage space. The reception desk staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was also excellent.

Cons:

The only comment is that lighter sleepers may not appreciate the noise (mostly on a Friday and Saturday night) from the nearby pub/club.

Pros:

Bellissimo hotel ricco di charme,, fin dal primo impatto hai la sensazione di entrare in un posto affascinante. Gli ambienti comuni sono caratteristici ed eleganti, la camera molto spaziosa, pareti in pietra, letti e doppi cuscini comodi, grande bagno ben accessoriato.
Colazione buona e completa anche se presentata in modo un po' banale: ampia selezione di dolce e di salato con salumi, formaggi, uova e bacon. Comodo parcheggio a pochi metri a 15 euro al giorno, centro storico praticamente adiacente

Cons:

La camera si affacciava sulla strada e si sentiva un po' di rumore del traffico, mancanza di ciabattine

O estacionamento não é legal em dias de chuva.

Чуть-чуть разочаровал
Pros:

Прекрасный отель почти в самом центре Сантьяго де Компостела. Великолепно оформлен,вы можете в полной мере окунуться в атмосферу Галисии. 6 мин.пешком до собора.Прямо в двух шагах остановка автобусов в аэропорт Сантьяго де Компостела.

Cons:

Возможно это мои придирки,но отель был полупустой, а меня поселили в мансардном номере,что крайне неудобно, плохо попадает свет и так далее.В описании номера при бронировании это не было указано,был предусмотрен обычный номер.Отдельно я просила одну кровать,а не две (я одна ,отель,повторюсь, пустой)-все равно получила 2 кровати. В номере проблемы с розетками.Чайник есть,но розетки рядом нет.Около кровати ее также нет. Все это собиралось по мелочам и испортило впечатление.
Прислали просьбу зарегистрироваться онлайн,а после на стойке регистрации стали просить все заполнить.Когда я уточнила:"Надо ли снова это делать?",мне сказали,что да,"надо". После извинились,видимо,нашли данные.

Pros:

Couldn't have been happier with our stay here. The room with big, thick stone walls was very warm and cosy and the bed, so comfortable.

Staff were friendly and helpful and the buffet breakfast was varied and available until 11am, just in case you want to enjoy the bed a bit
.
Location was fantastic, 5 minutes walk and your in front of the cathedral.
