    Not sure it's something I didn't like but there wasn't anybody about staff wise you are literally renting a room from an old lady. Did kinda make me feel like I was staying at my grandma's house but I was barely there. And it was a cheap single room.

    The location was great, the bed was comfortable everything you need for a short city stay

    The owner was very sweet but didn't know any English at all so I had a really hard time checking in since I also don't know Spanish. Some people might not like the noise, but I had no problem with it & loved the location overall.

    The location was great, everything was very minimal but pretty much exactly what I expected. I didn't spend much time in the room, but seemed to be clean, area was safe & I slept well.

    I will invite them to pay attention to the bathroom. The premises in general are old as well the bathroom. The head shower is broken and the bidet is cover with lime. For the price, these details should be taken care of.

    The staff and owner were very attentive and friendly. As well, the location was perfect for my personal needs.

    The place has a huge potential that I recommend the owner to consider: - improve wifi signal - modernize the rooms (color, light, furniture, usb connection) - put movement sensors for the light rather than the old sistem - seal any cracks where cockroaches may enter the room

    The location was great. Because of my flight I arrived around 11pm and the owner was kind enough to wait for me even when check in was until 10pm; furthermore, she also kept my room reserved although my credit card payment didn’t work (I pay in cash).

    The bathroom door is better to be left open when no one is using. (Especially as I had a stomach problem, necessity to unlock the bathroom door from outside by bringing the specialized key was a bit hard...)

    The owner is very kind. I booked the shared bathroom type room during my stay, but she let me stay in a larger room with a bathroom on the day when it was vacant and she said extra payment was not necessary. On the last day I was sick in stomach and asked the owner if I could extend the stay 2 to 3 hours after the check-out time to take rest a bit more, then she told me I could stay as long as I liked even till next day, because no booking was made on that day in the room. Fortunately I became better 2.5 hours later and when leaving the accommodation, she did not charge the extra time fee. I really appreciate her, Rosa!

    Unfortunately the hosts were not around when we checked out and we did not have the remote for the aircon on our first night when it was very hot.

    Location was excellent and there was aircon in the room.

    Noisy into the early hours but as you might expect. The real problem is the owner's Idea of service. Great at taking a 50 Euro deposit but not so keen to return it. Nearly missed my train getting her to answer her buzzer. Shame.

    The hotel manager did not speak any English and was not accomodating when I tried using an app to translate. I speak some Spanish but she did not want to hear. She lives in the same building/ floor, and once when I wanted to ask for a new towel after 4 days, I called the buzzer and she said Mierda, which is a profanity word in Spanish, annoyed that I disturbed her watching tv. I unfortunately forgot my keys in the joint bathroom, called three times and sent a text, did not receive a answer or call back. I Called booking.com who spoke to the lady and she said she wanted to take a nap and that I should hurry up. When I got back the first thing she did in a mean demeanor was that I made a big problem for her since she was supøaed to be with her family that day but couldn't go out since she saw the keys was left behind. If sje indeed had an appointment why did she not call me to let me know my keys were at the hotel, and then for me to come back. I can only imagine what would happened if I left tje keys there by mistake in the evening time. As an hotel manager one should be available to the customers regardless. I would never go back because of how the manager greeted and communicates with me. The shower head is also broken, and easy to fix. Noise street and very loud doors.

    Cleaning every day.

    Waited for 30 min for someone to greet us, called them several times but nobody answered, rooms are outdated, doors are from 1960, could barely lock them… The bathroom is not even worth of any words also barely cleaned after last guests, the owner has “cleaned” our bathroom and room and we didnt even wanted to be cleaned…could be considered sleeping here if the price is around 50€, not worth more than that

    Location is perfect

    There were actually no other facilities. We wanted, and did get, a private bathroom but got none of the things any other accommodation would normally have - especially as the price was not cheap. - no coffee facilities - towels not changed (we stayed 3 nights) - bathroom door was not fitted properly and no handle on the door so often got jammed and my wife couldn't reach up to open door from top - the wall holder for shower rose was broken so had to hold hose while showering and hence water would go everywhere (the shower only had a fabric curtain) - the bathroom would get so wet and nothing could be done to dry floors - no water bottles provided - no fridge - an email we got a few days before arrival advised that no alcohol could be consumed in premises - that's fine let us know up front. (A glass of wine after a day out would have been nice). - hair dryer was not in room (when I asked for it on second day I unfortunately disturbed the land lady who was unfortunately unwell). - we didn't think the price we were paying would get us so little. - no secure safe (no safe at all).

    The location was good, there was a private bathroom and there was internet. But that is all. Land lady was sweet to us on arrival.

    Checkin was a nightmare. Had to wait in the street for 90 minutes before they actually let me in. Then the room I booked wasn't even ready so I had to stay somewhere else for the night until they cleaned it.

    Great location.

    it is very noisy at night, up till 4:00 a.m.. there was some poop in the hallway for 2 days. at one point there was no toilet paper. the mattress gave me back pain.. if you're just going to sleep there it's okay because the location is fantastic ,walking distance to everything.

    the location was great!
