Approachable staff, clean room and excellent location, 5 minutes walk to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.
The room was very comfortable and was in a good location and near parking which you had to pay for at an additional cost but good price, I would recommend. If you are travelling by car I would advise to park the car first and then go to the hotel because you cannot go infront of the hotel with your car but it is in walking distance.
Tiny rooms, bed felt like sleeping on a box spring, noisy neighborhood, balcony door that would not close, bathroom tile in desperate need of grouting, all disappointing.
Very difficult to drive in to the property. It would be helpful to get instructions for nearby parking upon booking. Helpful staff at the desk. Very close to city center. Very noisy all night long.
The front desk lady that was at the time of our arriving was super nice and helpful but the lady that was at the time of the check out was somewhat rude
Close to city center & Cathedral. A bit hard to find.with gps. Had to park on street 1/4 mile away. Otherwise enjoyable. Confusion about breakfast & I think the staff person was upset with us, but all turned out okay.
