Convenient to train stations
The hotel is not close to Zaragoza's top tourist attractions. But it is only about a 15 minute walk from either the Portillo or the Goya commuter train stations. So in that sense it does have a convenient location for transportation. There are some bus routes nearby, But buses can be difficult to navigate for outsiders.
Zaragoza's "tranvia" streetcar rail system is accessible a short walk away. But be warned that system is typically extremely overcrowded and often you are lucky to be able to squeeze onboard.
The hotel itself? A few rough-edges the first day: When I first checked in I was given the key card and sent to a room that was already occupied by someone else! The shower in my room had a clogged drain that caused water to overflow to the entire bathroom (problem exacerbated by the lack of any lip to control water from going from the shower to adjacent areas. Also, I had noted from the moment I walked into the hotel that it seem really hot in the lobby corridor. Well, my room was REALLY hot all night.
But the staff were pleasant. Clerk who had sent me to the occupied room clearly realized his mistake- as I was heading back after discovering there was already a suicase in the room, he met me en-route with the card-key for the correct room. Clogged drain fixed before I got back to the hotel in the afternoon. Heat level was more reasonable the next two days. Depending on pricing and availability- if I could not get a room closer to the old town area, I might come again.
