Property is very pretty and a good location despite seemingly isolated. We booked after a two week trek, wanting to splurge on comfort and pools on our last days. Outdoor pool is freezing. Indoor pool, feels odd that hotel wants you to pay extra to use. Small things that you don’t really notice unless they are lacking; no toiletries, not even lotion, no face cloths, no spoon or stir stick for coffee, TV not working, etc. Restaurant is good, olives are notable. All in all a pleasant stay but hotel should pay more attention to detail and stop cutting costs of small things if they want 4 star rating. ##### Daria my Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Belinda 31 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Friendly staff, free shuttle to the centro, good selection of breakfast. ![In front of the hotel ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9558d461-711b-42f8-81c1-064a604e3c7f-1761923395683.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Belinda Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### joe 1 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities great place ##### joe Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Livia 30 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness . ##### Livia Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Karin 26 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service Hotel ust OK.

Même une salle d'eau d'une chambre étudiante est plus grande. La douche est petite, et l'espace pour le WC est indigne d'un hôtel.
