Staff very friendly. Very expensive for location and comfort. While rather centrally located, the area does not seem safe, which is unusual in itself in Spain. The room was clean but very simple and had some bars in front of the window. Breakfast is served in a different location.

Good value for money. Single room with en-suite had all the basics needed. Staff were friendly and helpful. People not used to cities might find the location and vibe of the streets around the accommodation slightly off-putting, but nothing to be scared of. Location is in fact very handy. Breakfast in a nearby bar is nice.

Room good and staff friendly and helpful. Well situated for all the main sights BUT the junkies, drug pushers and illegal street vendors on the street outside was quite unacceptable. I have travelled quite extensively in my long life and have stayed in fairly rough areas and have never felt nervous, but this time I was!!! Has anyone from Expedia actually checked out this place?
