Delicious food, good value, fantastic service, great views from terrace overlooking the waterway. We'll be back.
It is a little Ramshakled but the rooms are good and clean, the WiFi is good and the bar and restaurant are good and very handy - the did a fine meat paella for me.
Relatively cheap. From the adventures - clean, plenty of parking options right in front, ac, balcony, and even though there is music outside you don’t here anything in the room.
Totally amazing! Family run hotel immaculate, food Michelin star standard with amazing prices highly recommend! Staff super friendly and helpful! Rate this definitely 5* plus! We will be back!
The main building is currently under renovation. On site construction workers called the owner to accept our reservation. He arrived promptly and provided us with metal keys to our rooms. Rooms were spotless; AC worked well. However when we returned from dinner we could not get in the building as a card key was required. Fortunately the same construction workers were still on the job. They cut the power to the building which opened the main door so we could get to our rooms. The door remained open all night which was much better than being locked in. I suggest waiting until the renovation is complete.
Love this little hotel. Stayed many times over last 3 years. Great rooms. Great bar.
A very nice stop over, busy hotel, book before as a walk in you could loose out. Lovely restaurant excellent food with great views of the canal. Highly recommended also a very nice area to visit.
We stayed one night and wish we would have arrived earlier to enjoy the pool. Great location and room size. The jets in the tubs don’t work. The building we were in did not have an elevator. For the price it was good value, clean
