I enjoyed the visit of the historical centre, its lively atmopsphere, the quiet and shady paseos
Pros:

The position close to the casco viejo and the staff which was kind and helpful

Cons:

The very limited space of the room and bathroom, not adequate for a long stay, but acceptable considering the price

Pros:

Chambre correcte et emplacement bien situé

Cons:

Enormément de bruit sur les chambres donnant sur le canal... il y a un bar de nuit en bas des chambres qui ferme à 5h du matin. Impossible de dormir la fenêtre ouverte et l'absence de climatisation est préjudiciable. Si on reste la fenêtre fermée, il fait beaucoup trop chaud et si on ouvre la fenêtre trop de bruit pour dormir.

Our short stay was very good. We enjoyed our time and experienced the area.
Pros:

Fantastic reception service. Late night check in went great and we were able to get situated. Quiet location for our stay. We needed a taxi for a very early departure and the reception gal was outstanding in securing us with getting one at 5am.

Cons:

Sure wish they had a elevator for moving luggage to get to the reception and rooms.

Good value at great location
Pros:

Great location by the river near the Old Town, close to transport and easy walk to most sights. Very clean. Nice mattress. Coffee/Tea making facilities in hallway.

Cons:

Poor insulation, noise from other rooms. On first floor with no lift. Rooms need refurbishing. TV with only Spanish channels. Found their, otherwise adorable, cat laying on my pillow, after the maid left the window to the atrium open. As much as I love cats, this is unacceptable!

Pros:

Posizione centrale, comoda per tutto, compreso metropolitana per visite di zone lontane.
Struttura adeguata all'unica stella posseduta.

Cons:

Prezzo esorbitante, credo dovuto al fatto che fossero i giorni delle finali europee di rugby. Purtroppo non avevo idea dell'evento. Se invece il prezzo è sempre quello, allora confermo il termine esorbitante.
