Lovely small hotel in the heart of the Old Town. It is down narrow streets, so hard to get vehicles down, which adds to the nicety of the place in my opinion.

Right in the middle of the old town, with lots of bars and both beaches literally a stone’s throw away.

The hotel has 4 floors with a terrace on the roof, reception is small but functional with some nice leather seating close by if waiting for friends or to read the supplied newspapers after breakfast.

The bedroom has ample wardrobe space with hangers and drawers, 2 bedside tables with lamps but no drawers. It also has a medium size T.V. but I could only find Spanish channels.

The rooms are well appointed with a very comfy settee plus the wet room is so well planned and disabled friendly.

The bathroom consists of a bath, over bath shower, sink and toilet with complimentary bath/shower products, the towels are very large and soft. Bathroom is a good size and clean.

Breakfast was continental and more than covered your needs with freshly baked pastries. Cereals, toast, cheeses, fresh meats, fruit, yogurts, full English and even sweets are all available.

Breakfasts  ample, scrambled eggs , bacon and beans on a hot tray and fresh pastries, fruits and yogurts. You have to ask for a coffee capsule for the Nespresso Machine.
