Categories

Cleanliness
1
Mixed reports: some guests explicitly praised cleanliness, but several reviews mention tobacco smell in a room, mismatched/too-small sheets and towels, an almost-empty shower gel and lack of a duvet—overall slightly negative cleanliness experience.
Service
1
Mixed but comparatively positive: repeated notes that there is no staffed reception (self check-in via intercom/keypad), yet managers/phone contact responded to fix towel shortages and last-minute availability saved guests; responsiveness by phone is a positive.
Location
1
Consistently positive: multiple mentions of 'buena ubicación', great proximity to the centre, river/mountain views and a pleasant paseo; location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
1
Several strong negatives: very uncomfortable beds/mattresses, small rooms (squeezing two beds), a column intruding into the shower, humidity on the ceiling, thin walls with loud plumbing/noise and wrong-room assignments (promised mountain view but interior ground-floor given).
Amenities
1
Mixed to slightly negative: there is a kettle/coffee point, microwave and available capsules/infusions, but practical shortcomings (no cups provided, missing items in the coffee area, empty shower gel, occasional lack of towels/duvet) reduce perceived amenity quality.
Value for Money
1
Mixed but leaning negative: some guests find the price acceptable for location, while others call it overpriced for the service provided—notably extra pet fees (€25 plus €50 deposit) considered excessive by pet travellers.
Food and Beverage
1
Very limited offering: a kettle and tea are available in the lobby (positive), but no cups provided and no mention of breakfast or broader F&B service—minor negative overall.
Overall Experience
1
Mixed guest experiences: some reviewers recommend or were saved by last-minute availability, but multiple 'horrible' or strongly negative reports (beds, smells, noise, pet charges, lack of staff) lead to an overall negative impression.

Pros:

L'ubicació. Està net i hi ha aigua calenta. El sistema de porta electrònica funciona bé

Cons:

La decoració. Els llençols eren massa petits pel matalàs. El matalàs era massa petit pel somier. Les tovalloles de dutxa eren de lavabo.

Nos salvó la noche pero caro si viajas con mascota
Pros:

Tenían disponibilidad a ultima hora y eso nos salvó la noche.

Cons:

Viajábamos con una mascota y realmente las condiciones de uso tanto para devolver la fianza como el precio eran absurdos.
Pagamos 25€ por una mascota, pero sin embargo ponía que si se encontraban pelos de mascota en la ropa de cama no sé devolvería la fianza, cosa que quien tenga mascota sabe que es relativamente fácil que pierda pelo y se encuentre en la ropa de cama. Pero aún así no teníamos otra opción

Si tienes demasiada confianza con la persona que vas .....puedes ir .....de lo contrario ......mmmmm
Pros:

Que había para aparcar.

Cons:

La columna en el baño que prácticamente estaba casi dentro de la ducha y los ruidos de desagüe del agua de las habitaciones colindantes ( duchas , grifos , buter etc ) parecía que los teníamos al lado de la cama .
