Great stay! The room was very comfortable and clean. The bathroom was inside the room itself, which is great. The shower head had a problem causing some of the water to spray in the wrong direction (my face). I hope that this is fixed because it wastes water and could be solved rather easily . We had no contact with the any staff members, but we received enough information to do the check-in and check-out without having any issues.

Did not see any staff. Book in was by door bell and could not understand person. Television did not work. No facilitiies for food or breakfast. Only one cafe in area, the earl grey cafe, which was very good and we would recommend Room was clean and bed sheets were clean. Managed to get one of two parking spaces.

A good location and felt safe. The check in process was difficult in that we had to ring an intercom twice and were told our passcode number to obtain our key through this intercom. There was no phone number on the ******* app or online to ring in advance to confirm any booking, etc.

Todo hermoso. Pero necesitábamos toallas secas y almohadas extra y no había nadie que nos pudiera ayudar, enviamos un correo al que nos contactaron para dejarnos la llave y nadie respondió. No tiene A/C. Fallo TREMENDO. Moríamos de calor en la noche.
