Pros:

El lugar es espectacular, un silencio que hacía años que no escuchaba. El monasterio está muy cuidado y bello. La comida no es del otro mundo, pero se come bien.

Lo que más me gustó es que el padre nos hizo una sesión de observación astronómica después de la cena, fue muy interesante.

Cons:

La imaginería religiosa en la habitación me pilló desprevenido. Pero tiene sentido al estar en un monasterio.

Haría falta aire acondicionado en las habitaciones, entiendo que habitualmente no es necesario. Pero justo la noche que me quedé hizo mucho calor.

Memorable highlights sorely let down by a poor breakfast. If you have breakfast be early.
Pros:

The location was fantastic. Dinner in the rectory was good Padre Fernando provided a memorable night of stargazing and education about the universe and our solar system. The monastery itself is huge and there are plenty of places to sit quietly including the small chapel. There is also a full size church inside the monastery. The WiFi worked well.

Cons:

Breakfast was a disappointment. Start time is 09.00, it used to be later. We we got there at 09.15. The tray of food was very depleted and was not being replenished. Bread ran out and was not replenished. There was no home made jam or pastries. The coffee was cold and tasted awful. Some people came after us and there was no bread or meat for them but some additional cheese was produced.

Un remanso de paz en buena armonía.
Pros:

El ambiente que se respira en el monasterio invita a la relajación, la paz interior y la espiritualidad. No se puede uno perder la interpretación de las estrellas por parte de Fray Fernando. La comida es exquisita.

Unique monastery experience
Pros:

The countryside view and friendly staff

Cons:

The room is extremely hot, unconfortable, no wifi, no fridge. The pool is okish but no place to seat. The food not good value and breakfast very basic. The stargazing was very nice. The hikking routes nearby were not maintained properly and not so pretty either. The monastery is impressive outside and inside. If you fancy a silent retreat that is the place to be.

Un cadre fantastique mais une chambre au confort minimaliste et une table trop frugale.
Pros:

Le cadre ainsi que le bâtiment principal sont exceptionnels.
L'accueil était aussi de très bonne qualité.

Cons:

Le confort de la chambre est spartiate sans climatisation et c'est bien dommage car j'ai souffert de la chaleur.
Le dîner était frugal pour ne pas dire autre chose.
2 détails qui ont gâché mon séjour dans ce lieu splendide.

Un sitio excepcional con algunas cosas a mejorar
Pros:

La atención del personal y la observación de estrellas que dirige el Padre cada noche

Cons:

Cena buena pero justita de raciones, el desayuno muy mejorable y yo pondría mosquiteras para evitar que se te inunde literalmente la habitación de insectos
