Reviews and Ratings
I loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spotless and cozy, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. The location was perfect, close to an array of great restaurants and with easy access to the old town. The dining experience was delightful with delicious tapas available. The facilities were top-notch, making my stay even more enjoyable. The only downside was the slightly higher price, but the value for money was still good.
