Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“I liked everything here, the comfort, the cleanliness, the service, but what I liked the best is the atmosphere. It's a family run business, and all of them are so nice and genuinely welcoming (yet never intrusive) - so rare these days. Congratulations, and thank you for your hospitality.”
“This is simple gem! The rooms are large and super clean, the beds are excellent as are the showers. The breakfast buffet is huge and features homemade cakes and has ample options for those with dietary restrictions. Excellent coffee, too. After an active day, the pool is a cool oasis. Best of all is the family and staff that run it. They're extraordinarily nice, helpful and always available. The hotel is immaculately maintained and it's located on a quiet stretch, next to the oceanside paseo. It's about 15 min. walk to the city and few minutes walk to a sweet little port town with great restaurants, from whence the tours of la Isla Cortegada leave. The wonderful staff have lots of local knowledge and can help with visits to the two beautiful nearby islands' parks. The best 3-star inn I've stayed in. Highly recommend!”
“The Hotel is very neat and clean. Absolutely satisfied. You cannot miss the breakfast here. It is the best, especially the orange juice.”
“Good hotel if you have what to do there. Town is ok, just came for overnight after landing in airport nearby”
“Fantastic friendly family run hotel lovely rooms, lovely bathroom, nice balcony view ,nice indoor pool recommend very highly”
