No desayunamos allí,
La cama un poco dura y como la habitación daba a la calle principal el ruido del tráfico resultó incómodo, a las 5-6 de la mañana hacía de despertador.

La ubicación es excelente, a un paso del castillo.
Habitacion muy cómoda y silenciosa.
Personal muy atento.
El desayuno no es buffet...se pide en la cafetería un café o Colacao con un pincho o una bollería además del zumo de naranja natural.
Solamente 5 habitaciones de fumadores y no nos tocó., a pesar de haberla solicitado.

Room was decent with a queen bed, nice bathroom with a tub, good desk.
Lots!
The reception would not allow check-in until 1500…a blanket refusal without even checking to see if an individual room is actually ready. VERY uncommon in the industry - if the room has already been cleaned, there is nothing gained by making the guest wait. And, seriously, does ANYBODY really believe that NONE of the rooms are clean at 1459, and ALL of the rooms are clean at 1500? Major power trip with the staff.
Once in the room, the advertised air-conditioning does not allow you to control the temperature - you get 23 C no matter what. It’s not really air-con, it’s more like a glorified fan. The advertised WiFi was not working - did not even show up on the list (on my phone). TV menu functions are disabled so that it is impossible to try to set the audio to English. This is for channels that DO have a English track. All in all, the staff here go out of their way to make things difficult for their customers.
