Basic but comfortable enough

Greeted by Manageress, granted requested balcony room. English a bit lacking but certainly better than my Spanish. Room a tad basic but comfortable beds, good size balcony with table and chairs. Plentiful hot water for bathing or shower, decor somewhat dated as was furnishings, a fresh lick of paint wouldn't go amiss. Mask's to be worn in hotel common area's * a good thing! Staff pleasant enough, maid, Mirta, very helpful for train and bus travel advice. Regular fresh towels. At the price certainly wouldn't complain, was good enough for the 6 day break.

Gestörte Nachtruhe

Gut gesagt: so lala. Nette Vermieter - aber leider laut. Nachts kommt das Licht durch das Oberlicht der Tür, weil Bewegungsmelder ständig angehen durch regen Verkehr der Katzen im Flur. Aber einen Haken muß es bei dem Preis ja geben.

Schattige. ouderwetse accomodatie, echter totaal verouderd en aan een grondige renovatie toe : oud meubilair, versleten beddengoed, slecht sanitair, van de 5 lichtpunten werkten er maar 2, bidet defect, zeer matige schoonmaak. Eigenaren bijzonder vriendelijk, veel neergelegd leesvoer, gunstige ligging t.o.v. het centrum, maar wel pal aan de drukke N-348.

Anbefales for den som ikke forlanger luksus.

Dette er et helt okei overnattingssted. Det er ikke et luksushotell, men hvis en ikke forlanger annet enn seng, dusj og frokost på ett og samme sted, kan jeg anbefale dette hostellet. Ligger veldig sentralt til buss, tog, flyplass, kafeer, resteuranter, sentrum, strand og alle andre fasiliteter. Rengjøring og rydding på rommet hver dag, og veldig hyggelig betjening. Tommel opp👍

In need of renovation

The place is very much in need of renovation. That is why the price is low. Very polite owners though. But also annoying that they have to manually let you out of and into the building (because it is always locked with a key).

Enkelt, snabbt, nära

Det var helt ok! Stannade i 12 nätter och hade sina bra o dåliga sidor Bra sidor: stor garderob, bekväm säng, stort badrum med badkar, gratis wi-fi och en bra luftkonditionering. Dåligt: långsam wi-fi, inget kylskåp och det kom lätt in myror i rummet, tv:n var något seg den också. Fanns en otrevlig personal men resten var trevliga. Min pojkvän i Spanien skulle på besök och de hade mage att lägga näsan i blöt och säga: du får inte ha gäster i rummet förutom din mamma( han skulle inte sova där). Slutsats: detta är ett bra ställe om du behöver något billigt och snabbt och ska stanna i ca 2 nätter, men inte 12.

Cheap and Cheerful

The hotel is very basic and in urgent need of redecoration. That said, the owners were lovely, it was cleaned every day and is in a good location for the nightlife. Ideal for those wanting a cheap bed to sleep in but not for those who expect a little luxury when going away.

Faulty Towers!!

Rooms very basic. No where to hang shoer head. No plugs on basin or bidet. Beds hard and cold. Tv minute. Rooms run down and dirty. Very old place with a lot of work to be done. Owners elderly and tired. Lots of clutter and very smelly cats. Noisy area. Lots traffic. Doors locked at all times awkward when you go out, have to ring bell to get in at all times.fire hazard. No tea making facilities. Only good thing was near to centre of town.
