This was a wonderful experience. The staff was very kind and even allowed us to check in early, though we only came early to ask about bag storage. The bar was a great addition and the breakfast, for 10€ each, was fantastic! Highly recommended. We are a family of five with two teenagers and a 5 year old.

We loved our time at the Central House. The vibe is great and the room was very comfortable. This was the best property we stayed in during our 8 day stint in Spain. Would highly recommend.
