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.

Awful hotel, dirty room, used towels, unless lining, rubbish left. No refund issued
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The room was not cleaned from the previous occupant. Dirty bed, used towels and rubbish left. The hotel refused to find a cleaner or issue us with a refund. Furthermore, after complaining, they changed the code on our door locking us out. They would only issue a new code if we agreed to the condition of the room . I do not recommend this hotel in the slightest.
