Pros: Comfortable bed and pillows, quiet, 5 min walk from the old town, free street parking, easy check-in/out. Cons: Cleanliness was ok but could be improved (dark scuffs on white walls, some stains on the blankets although they smelled clean), very basic amenities.

For a somewhat budget hotel, this place really did the job! Room was smaller but very clean, modern, and functional. Hotel also allowed for an early check-in, and let us keep our bags at the property till the afternoon as we had a late bus. Would definitely recommend if you want something no frills for a few days in the beautiful Tarifa.

The room was nice and clean! The staff super kind and helpful!☺️ The only problem is, if you wanna park close to the hotel is almost impossible. (There is a parking lot where you have to pay 1€/hour, which 10min walking distance from the hotel.)
