Comfortable bed and breakfast in a perfect location for the cathedral.
Pros:

The warm welcome and helpful staff. Our bedroom and bathroom were clean and comfortable. The location was stunning.

Cons:

The like of facilities. After 1pm there is no possibility of having even a cup of tea or coffee in the hotel and the bedroom lacked the facilities to make a drink. It is a shame the hotel cannot use the bar it already had in the breakfast room for the rest of the day.

If you're visiting old town Santiago de Compostela, this is the place to stay.
Pros:

Amazing location, footsteps from the cathedral. Charming, helpful staff.

Cons:

I can't think of anything we didn't like...other than the fact that we could only stay one night! :-)
