What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Outstanding staff and service — Guests consistently praise the owners and reception staff for going above and beyond – helping with luggage, arranging taxis, offering local tips, and even lending cutlery.
- Unbeatable location — Directly on the Camino walkway, a stone's throw from the train station and within easy walking distance of the historic center, supermarkets, and restaurants.
- High guest satisfaction — With a rating of 8.7 from over 1,600 reviews and strong scores across rooms, service, and cleanliness, it's a reliably well-regarded choice.
–
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Rooms are compact — Some guests described the rooms as 'charming little' – fine for a short stay but possibly tight for those wanting more space.
- Limited TV channel selection — One guest noted that the in-room TV offers only a limited number of channels.
- Reception hours may be restrictive — Check-in is only available between 13:00 and 20:00, which might not suit travelers arriving late.
