Pros:

This is a wonderful small hotel with an amazing host. Our room was a good size, very clean, had a wonderful view and the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was great with some tasty homemade goods.

It was our 2nd stay and we will definitely stay again, it was a perfect first night stop after getting off the ferry at Santander.

Cons:

Nothing

Great small hotel in the middle of Asturias
Pros:

Great B&B hotel with 7 rooms in a renovated old house with views towards the Asturias mountains and next to a road and in the middle of nature. Breakfast is great, plenty of local and good quality food. Private parking and very personal treatment.

Cons:

Bathrooms a bit old but all is clean and works

Charming small hotel, great host attentive to your needs!
Pros:

The room was large and spacious, and the host was very attentive and helpful to any questions we had! He also brought us some fans since our room was so warm and the area doesn't have air conditioners for cooling. The property itself was very charming, with an outdoor patio area that was perfect for snacking and drinking wine while watching the sunset.

Cons:

We had a corner room, facing the farm next door. There were two windows to the room, one large facing the farm and another smaller one facing towards the field. The sun is facing the smaller window for most of the day, so it makes the room very warm, and with no air conditioning, you need to have the windows open to cool down the room. I'm fine with a window or two open, but unfortunately there was a light right next to the large window, and the cowbells clanking at night when you absolutely need the window open made it difficult to sleep.

Pros:

Perfect place to escape the crowds.
Spacious, well decorated rooms and many common areas. Although we didn't use it, we think the trust-based bar is a great idea since there are few options to have a drink nearby in the evening! Super friendly staff!

Cons:

The bed was a bit soft but that's just personal taste!
