I had a lovely night in a cozy room with quality linen and a huge bath featuring a rainfall shower. The hotel has great relaxation spots, especially the hot tub and beautiful lounge area. The only hiccup was a loud fire alarm that went off early in the morning, but it didn't ruin my overall experience. 😊

Charming, Charming, Charming
The cozy vibe of the small double room was enchanting—it felt like a little nest! I indulged in the luxurious jacuzzi bath after a long day exploring local sights, which was the perfect way to unwind. Plus, the delicious Spanish pizza I enjoyed in the historical pub was a culinary delight that made my taste buds dance!

We spent a night here and loved the comfy bed and clean room. The bar area was nice and had a good vibe. Breakfast was a highlight, one of the best we've had! Just beware, everything in town shuts down super early.

great view but slightly cramped
The view from our room overlooking the castle was breathtaking, truly a highlight of our stay. The bed linen and pillows provided exceptional comfort, making it hard to get out of bed in the morning.
The room felt a bit cramped for two people.

But honestly, if I wanted to share a bathroom experience with the mold, I would have invited it to tea! Some outside noise was a bit too social for my taste.
