Had to put the heating on when I arrived as the room was very cold. The decor was very old, paint peeling and skirting loose. The washbasin was clean, hairs on it and the water from the tap was just a dribb. Having a shower was difficult as when you held the shower head up the water stopped altog. At the garage, the hotel advertised the price as €12 when it was actually €17.

Íbamos mi amigo y yo y queríamos hacer especial mención al el equipo de recepción porque se han portado muy bien con nosotros. Nos hubiera gustado quedarnos al desayuno por esa bollería que tan buena pinta tenía. Hotel relación calidad-precio bueno y mucho supermercado en los alrededores.
