Great location. Staff was wonderful. Bathroom was very small, However efficient.
Loved the little balcony. I would definitely stay again. I felt very safe.
The location is good but the hotel is very old the rooms are very small and not all as nice as the ones shown in the pictures. But good customer service at least
Unbeatable location, with plenty of places to eat on the same street. Close to everything, less than a minute from the San Miguel Market, and just across the street is the Plaza Mayor. For easy reference, it's opposite the Cueva de Luis Candela. We thank all the staff for their friendliness and helpfulness, especially Luis; our stay wouldn't have been so enjoyable without his assistance. We would definitely return.
Very central location and very quiet location. Helpful staff. I was put off as I had messaged the hotel 3 times before travelling and didn't receive any replies which gave me cause for concern. In the end all was fine though.
Very friendly staff an owner. The hostel is open 24hrs so they hold your key when you go which makes a very safe place. Great location and right next the Plaza Mayor.
The hotel is super well located, blocks from Mercado San Miguel, the busy the Cava Baja street ( full of bars and restaurants) and the historic area.
The rooms are quite small and dated, but overall comfortable.
It was very quiet, even though it's on a busy street, I'm not sure if all the rooms get a balcony, but ours did.
The staff is very kind and helpful. The downside is a parking was about 10 blocks away and they do not have a contract for pricing so we paid about €32 per night.
The room was small, but had a charm and a comfy bed and they gave me a little balcony that looked over to the 400 year-old courtyard and each and every member that worked there were just the kindest nicest people. I had a lovely time I wanna bring back my parents.

The location is tremendous,
The room was clean, and cleaned daily.
The property was secure with friendly staff.
The room is quiet at night.
The front entrance can be hard to find on first arrival.
Our room did not resemble any of the pictures and the window had a view of the central maintenance courtyard. We were only at the hotel at bedtime but if a view is important perhaps make a request.
