Cute comfortable room on the beautiful river
Pros:

The room was modern and very clean and although it was quite small, it was designed to maximize space. We loved the sound of the river below as we slept. The small refrigerator came in handy.

Cons:

We had a bit of confusion checking in mostly due to the language barrier. We speak minimal Spanish and the staff at the bar spoke no English. But after we got our key, everything was great!

Pros:

Entirely renovated hotel, very modern. Good location to visit the Sierra Nevada. Fairly quiet street. Free parking 5 minutes away.

Cons:

The mattress was too soft. The building has very poor noise insulation so you can hear people closing doors, coming and going and talking, even with your door closed. No tea or coffee (or even a Keller) provided.
Very few restaurants were open nearby.

Decepción
Pros:

Buenas instalaciones, pero el gerente bastante poco empático, lo que me hace quedarme con mal sabor de boca.

Cons:

Tuvimos que salir una noche antes de lo previsto, porque por el temporal no pudimos esquiar. Les pedí si podían devolvernos el coste de la última noche, aun asumiendo nosotros la comisión que tuvieran que pagar. Teníamos 2 dobles durante 4 noches. Primero me dijeron que había una comisión. Cuando les dije que yo la asumía, me dijeron que no podía anular con tan poco tiempo porque no tenían tiempo suficiente para realquilarla. Luego el problema no era la comisión de la agencia....
Soy consciente de que no es culpa suya la nevada que ha caído y que nos ha hecho regresar antes de tiempo sin esquiar. Pero algo más de empata y menos avaricia, hubiera sido lo coherente.
