Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Occasional noise from the central setting — Being right on Plaza de Santa Ana means street-life sounds, though one review notes it was surprisingly quiet at night.
  • Check-in starts at 16:00 — If you arrive earlier, you may need to wait or arrange something – though early check-in was offered in one case.
  • Limited room types — Only a Studio and a One-Bedroom Apartment are available, which may suit couples or small groups more than large families.
