Staff were extremely helpful and very nice. The hotel listing incorrectly states that laundry service is onsite. This is not true. I struggled to get laundry done offsite since you compete for laundry service from local apartment dwellers and those walking the Camino to Santiago. The room was very sparse - not hand moisturizer (the soap was very drying), conditioner, or waste basket in the room. There were no decent places to eat nearby, and those close were small, smoky bars with limited menus.

Kort vei til jernbanestasjonen og resten av byen. Tok litt langt tid før varmt vannet kom opp i 3. etasje, men da jeg fikk vite at de5 bare tok litt tid, fungerte det perfekt.

The hotel room was very basic & worn decor. Mattress was quite hard & for those doing extended travelling, there was no mini fridge. Our room had French doors but you looked onto a wall, however it was nice you could get some fresh air. Be aware that the walk to the Cathedral & old town was some distance away. Parking was easy with the use of a Parking Station nearby.

This hotel was very cozy and with warm reception. Room is clean and the water pressure was amazing, but can be noisy at night due to other guests and/or traffic. It was hot and couldnt manage to make the arcon into cold air. Breakfast was very good. 10min from train station and 15min from town.

Wir waren schon in der Nacht davor in diesem Hotel, gebucht über Santiago Ways. Die freundliche Rezeptionistin hat uns völlig unkompliziert ermöglicht, für die zweite Nacht dasselbe Zimmer zu behalten.
