Hotel muito central mas básico
Pros:

Localização fantástica, na rua principal. Pátio interior bonito e típico. Para quem valoriza uma localização conveniente, é uma boa escolha.

Cons:

Instalações básicas e algo degradadas. Exaustor da casa de banho tão barulhento que é impossível não acordar a outra pessoa durante a noite. O mesmo quanto ao ar condicionado. Pequeno almoço inclui um prato quente (ovos), um prato de fruta, um sumo, café, e um prato pequeno de pão doce/bolos para partilhar. Para quem espera um pequeno almoço diverso e substancial, não é uma boa opçao. É igualmente estranho não incluir pão simples, e a expectativa parece ser a de que duas pessoas partilhem um pan au chocolat, um pão doce, e 2/3 mini pãezinhos doces.

Pros:

Die Lage

Cons:

Die Einrichtung ist sehr kalt; es gibt nichts weiter als das Allernötigste. Keine Pantoffeln ( für diesen Preis, hätte man sie erwarten können). Beim Frühstück sind Gipfeli und Capuccino oder Kaffee (kein American Coffee) Extras.
Kein Lift. Für uns keon Problem; man sollte es aber erwähnen.

The hotel was nice, breakfasr was decent, rooms were dated.
Pros:

The

Cons:

We stayed three nights. The first room was noisy, second night they moved us to a smaller room which was a little more quiet. But the bed was smaller and the room was small. Third night it was definitely more quiet, but it reflected on the charges. We paid more for that room.

Very relaxing, centrally located hotel serving large, delicious breakfasts
Pros:

The staff are lovely, the hotel is well situated in centro, very clean and our room was quiet and large. The shower is excellent and there’s a lot of space in the bathroom

Cons:

They had warned us but the rooftop and pool were closed for maintenance. There was no noise from the workers though, which was great.

Comfortable, Modern Hotel with excellent Breakfast choices.
Pros:

We had a wonderful and quiet stay at Parador de Alcalá. The room and bathroom were modern, the beds were very comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent. Portions were generous, fresh, and delicious. Note: We had to request smaller portions after day 2.

We requested a quiet room before arrival and were assigned an interior room without windows, which was perfect after long days of sightseeing. Keep in mind that rooms facing the street may experience some traffic noise, so I recommend requesting an interior room if you’re a light sleeper.
