Pros:

La fachada del edificio, la amabilidad de la chica de recepción, la terraza al aire libre. La ubicación. Poder aparcar cerca del hotel. La limpieza. El desayuno no está mal, tiene de casi todo.

Cons:

Nuestra habitación era como un ático y debía tener cuidado a la hora de ir o de volver a la cama para no darme en la cabeza. No hay ascensor. Se oía mucho a los de la habitación de al lado.

Very comfortable.
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and spoke English very well. The whole building was very clean.

Cons:

My stay was excellent, but the first night, the occupant of the room next door was quite noisy. Not the hotel staff's fault!
The local buses are not reliable, but there is a railway station.
