Sung South Korea

The property was well located (8-20 min walk to beach and old town depending on where you are going). Everything was very clean. It’s a very simple room but has what you need. The staff is very helpful. Jon the owner helped answer all of our questions via WhatsApp or in person, helping with recommendations or calling taxis, directions, extra towels, etc. pleasant stay! Good value

Shelby United Kingdom

Ricardo was very nice and welcoming. The room was amazing with a big bathroom and a lot of space for Europe. There was free coffee at the reception and the entire hotel uses access codes so you don’t have to carry a key. Beds were very comfortable. Wonderful stay and great price.

Lance United States of America

The Pension is brand new in a new apartment building. It was very modern and comfortable. The use of door codes was a very efficient system. The Pension is a short walk to neighborhood restaurants and shopping. From the Cathdral you can walk everywhere. The manager who was there in the morning was very friendly and helpful.

Roberta United States of America

Very comfortable room with comfortable beds, convenient small refrigerator, spacious shower, outdoor patio, and secure locks! The manager, Javi, was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our daily conversations with him.

Lynn United States of America

Great location! Within walking distance from the centre, the old town and the beaches. The room was large, and in case of questions, the staff was there to assist. All in all, we loved it, and would definitely recommend it!
