A great stay

Our hosts, couldn't do enough for us, they were helpful and friendly, the breakfast & dinner were excellent. The rooms were spacious and comfortable if a little dated, but that did not deter from the pleasureable stay. A good location for exploring the area.

This is my second time staying at the Posada de Arte. I enjoyed staying here because the place is comfortable, and at walking distance from the thermal baths. My friends and I really enjoyed having dinner there. The food was very tasty and the presentation was beautiful. The breakfast was really good too. I will definitely stay in La posada de Arte again.
