Dated property but room was large, view is unbeatable and proximity to old town is perfect. Shower drain and design is the worst I’ve ever seen.l My first shower flooded the bathroom and part of the hallway. The only way to prevent overflow and flooding is to turn off the water while lathering and washing and only use water when rinsing.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The location is central. The view from the room is exceptional. However, the rate is slightly overpriced for the services provided. The housework is very basic (many hairs found in the bed and sofa, very dusty room...). The light switches are broken, and there are numerous impact marks in the walls that have damaged the paint. The bathroom is nice. No mini bar, no bathrobe (although there is a bathtub). You'll pay for the view!

Wonderful stay other than the fact we had to park 15 minute walk away cause the intra Muros was very very busy and we couldn't find a parking spot nearer as we did last time. Other than that it was a really good stay

Desk staff snotty. Misleading advertising saying parking is available (only if you reserve it when room is reserved). Bathroom was dirty. Mould in showers and in sink. Looked like there was stool or urine on the wall near paper dispenser. Door knobs filthy. Light bulbs burnt out.
