6/10 Good

Staff were extremely helpful and very nice. The hotel listing incorrectly states that laundry service is onsite. This is not true. I struggled to get laundry done offsite since you compete for laundry service from local apartment dwellers and those walking the Camino to Santiago. The room was very sparse - not hand moisturizer (the soap was very drying), conditioner, or waste basket in the room. There were no decent places to eat nearby, and those close were small, smoky bars with limited menus.

The staff was lovely and very helpful. There was always someone in the lobby, and they were able to answer all my questions. They helped me get around town. The room was very clean and very well-maintained. The common areas also were clean and quiet. The location was very convenient to transportation.

Clean but basic rooms.
The hotel room was very basic & worn decor. Mattress was quite hard & for those doing extended travelling, there was no mini fridge. Our room had French doors but you looked onto a wall, however it was nice you could get some fresh air. Be aware that the walk to the Cathedral & old town was some distance away. Parking was easy with the use of a Parking Station nearby.

4/10 Fair

We booked through Expedia and may have got the worst room! Other reviews we read were good. Hotel is very short walk to train station and historical centre. Customer service at check-in was exceptional pity could say the same for the room we got. It was small, there was water damage to wall between bathroom and bedroom, paper thin walls and in great need of an upgrade No amenities and wifi didn't work. Unless you have a very early train to catch find another hotel or make sure you get what you see.

A solid choice
Overall, very nice, great service at the front desk, nice location, clean rooms, if I was to criticize one thing, it would be the matresses. They weren't the worst ever but I expected a little nicer, still slept fine.

Excellent location
It is in a perfect location being close to the train station and the city centre. As we booked a room for 4 nights initially, kindly, we were given an option to stay in a bigger room. Even though it was outdated compared to the one we booked and the beds were not very comfortable (probably the modernized rooms would have better mattresses), it was spacious and had a big window. Considering its perfect location (for us anyway), overall, we were satisfied even though wifi was rather unstable. We had breakfast...ummm, that was the first and the last. The bread had gone stale and did not enjoy at all. Perhaps it was the 1st of Jan? Anyhow, I would give a miss as there are many cafes around to have a simple but lovely breakfast. The person we met on our first day was very helpful. But when I found out that there was no soap in the bathroom, I asked and a different person at the reception gave me a couple more small bottles of shampoo and body wash and told me "okay?" in a stern voice. Well, I did not know how to respond to that and I just kept quiet and hoped not to have any more interaction with her.
