We were welcomed by the owner..she knew our names & explained all services of this Beautifully presented hostel.

Beris Australia

This is a lovely place to stay - absolutely in the middle of everything (no need to use any transport) and an oasis in the midst of a busy area. The hostel is in a beautiful old building, the rooms are basic but beautifully clean and adequate. The taxi rank is right below so on the day we left (at 4.30am) there were a number of taxis lined up to choose from. We also had a beautiful balcony with a view onto Calle Mayor. Absolutely a lovely place to stay.

Quiet, the nice lady at the reception, very nice view - we had a room with a view on Calle Mayor. Read some reviews about being noisy. Of course it is a bit, but its central, it s normal.

  • Hello good day I just would like to inquire if there’s any parking space in this Hostal? And how much do we need to add for the payment ? Thanks
    Hay varios parking públicos, pero el más cercano es el parking de la Plaza Mayor, que está a 50 metros, el precio por día creo que es de 35 euros, lo mejor es preguntar previamente en el parking.
