    Had a really really nice stay for more than one night, everything was nice. The food was amazing, with a wide range of options. The room was fashionable and airy, included with a fan as well as a giant super comfortable bed. Location: the hotel was near to restaurants in the village, shops, cafes and galleries.

    The staff - some of them were not always friendly.

    Excellent location with private parking. Well-appointed room with comfortable bed and large en suite shower room. Tea, coffee, water, and sherry provided. Carlos and Amè, the new owners, are friendly and accommodating. They moved us to a more convenient room and allowed us to use their fridge and microwave. Great breakfast variety and quality.

    Nothing to mention.

    The rooms were lovely, clean, and beautifully decorated. the staff were amazing and went out of their way to accommodate our needs, even serving an early breakfast. We also enjoyed the peaceful outdoor seating area and pool.

    There were a few issues during our stay. the heaters in our room were not working, making it quite cold.

    This guest house is conveniently situated in the heart of town, providing you with easy access to midtown restaurants and shops. the rooms are clean and spacious, with modern furnishings and en-suite bathrooms. the breakfast selection is varied and delicious.

    The TV channels available are limited, which may be frustrating if you are looking for entertainment in the evenings.
