Een verborgen parel in de bergen rond Istán
Pros:

Bij aankomst een hartelijk Spaans welkom van de dame des huizes. Los Jarales ligt op een berg en heeft een prachtig uitzicht. Na onze uitstappen was het zwembad een welgekome afkoeling.

Cons:

Tegenvallen is een groot woord...het ontbijt is eenvoudig. De gastvrouw brengt de borden aan tafel, maar we hebben zeker geen honger gehad. Voor een tweede tas koffie moet je wel 1,20 euro bijbetalen...vonden we wat vreemd, maar kom ..prijs/kwaliteit is dit verblijf meer dan correct. Los Jarales ligt op een berg...de weg ernaartoe kan voor sommigen een afknapper zijn...zeker de zeer steile oprit !!

výborný osobní a srdečný přístup k hostům a jejich přání. Bazén je supr plus záležitost.
Pros:

Snídaně byla OK a dobrá vzhledem k ceně.
Mohlo by se snad doplnit vajíčkama a vločkama (Müsli).

Pros:

Beliggenhed, personalet, service, at man måtte medbringe egen mad og drikke

Cons:

Det ville være fint med et lille køleskab på værelset.
Morgenmaden kunne varieres.
Sengen var for smal til to personer.
