We like the hotel, it was right for the price, basic but clean, breakfast was with options and enough variety with protein, pastry, fruit, jams etc. neighborhood was lively and a bit to much at first sight but we did not feel unsafe with enough families around and different restaurants. Specially tapas places at the street behind the hotel were nice. Thank you for a nice and safe stay.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this hotel. I made an almost last minute reservation not researching hotels as much as I usually do, merely choosing it because of its location and price. However, the hotel turned out to be very nice, clean, and recently renovated. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, And, I even got a room upgrade.
