Prima locatie, gastvrije ontvangst en voor herhaling vatbaar!
Pros:

Het personeel, het restaurant en de aanwezigheid van een laadpaal.

Cons:

Vanwege de hitte was het zeer warm op de kamer, dus een airco werd gemist. Toch een dag er aan vast geplakt omdat de positieve dingen de negatieve overstegen.

I expected more.
Pros:

Good location. Parking in the premises. Breakfast was good.

Cons:

No aircon. Disappointing given the cost. The owner was serious and sullen. He never smiled. The room was quite small.

If they improve the sound insulation the property is 10/10
Pros:

Very convenient to visit the wineries. It has a restaurant and EV charger; the breakfast is freshly made and good quality.

Cons:

The sound insulation is very poor as they have a restaurant downstairs which gets really noisy at night, so not great if you want an early bed. The rooms lack of aircon however they provided us with a fun which worked really well.

Excellente étape
Pros:

Nous y avons séjourné quelques fois auparavant.
L'emplacement est idéal pour découvrir la belle région de la Rioja, l'hôtel est confortable et on y mange très bien.
Les voitures sont garées à l'intérieur de la propriété,ce qui est pratique et rassurant.
Le soir vous pouvez vous joindre aux habitants du village pour prendre un verre et grignoter des tapas sur la place du village située devant l'hôtel.
Atmosphère locale garantie et très sympathique.

Agréable séjour en Rioja
Pros:

Le restaurant dans l’hôtel, un service de petite restauration le jour où le restaurant était fermé.
Le jardin ombragé, le parking fermé.

Cons:

Pas de climatisation dans les chambres.
Une piscine aurait été un plus, d’autant qu’il y aurait la place d’en aménager une.

Hotel encantador y tranquilo
Pros:

Hotelito de una preciosa construcción, amplio y cómodo, con estacionamiento y una terraza muy agradable.

Ambiente tranquilo y de paz para disfrutar del vino.
Desayuno insuperable y muy bien atendido.
Posibilidad de comer en el restaurante, y también un gastro bar, Merche es una gran chef.

Coincidimos con la noche de pinchos de los viernes en el gastro bar y nos encantó ver a los habitantes del pueblito disfrutar de este evento.

La ubicación del hotel es magnífica, a pocos kilómetros de muchos d ellos pueblos de interés que hay por visitar en La Rioja.

Cons:

Hace falta renovar las habitaciones, da la impresión que la decoración es desde los inicios del hotel, que no está mal pero puede mejorarse.

Charmant en authentiek hotel met een excellente keuken.
Pros:

Charmant familiaal hotel in een klein dorpje, goede uitvalsbasis voor bezoek aan de Rioja streek.
De keuken is er fantastisch... daarvoor alleen zou je er terug naartoe gaan. Beste prijs/kwaliteit ooit !!!
Charmante hotelier, mooie en ruime kamers.

Cons:

Geen airco, maar door de dikke muren, buitenluiken en een degelijke ventilator hebben we toch goed geslapen.

A superb hotel, full of character with a great host, excellent food and wines
Pros:

What a fantastic spot. Host, Jose was excellent, hotel was simply superb and full of character - ironwork on main staircase was a lesson in the blacksmith's art. Evening meal was fantastic with locally produced wines complimenting food. Likewise, breakfast dis not disappoint. A great spot, highly recommended.
