What a pleasant surprise this Hostal turned out to be. We booked at the last minute as this was not our first choice and we were initially undecided about whether to check into a Hostal rather than a Hotel but this Hostal is absolutely wonderful. It is located in a ‘no entry’ pedestrianized area but this is easy enough to get into if you're driving by pulling up to the barrier (one of the 'column' types that retracts into the road surface), pressing the ‘call’ button and stating the hotel you need to reach. The person on the end of the line lowers the barrier and you’re through. After dropping off our bags we had to take the car to a secure parking area a short distance away where it was safely parked for the duration of our stay. The Hostal is situated on the upper floors above a souvenir shop all of which is owned by the same man. He was unbelievably nice and helpful. He gave is great directions to the covered parking, he recommended shopping and sights to see and he could not have done more for us. And this was all while he was also running his shop and keeping his customers happy. The Hostal is opposite a nice open-air bar where we had drinks and lunch and which we could see from the Hostal balcony. The Hostal was safe, clean, comfortable, and for the price we thought represented fantastic value for money. It is located on a busy pedestrian street but a good night’s sleep was no problem at all. We have no problem at all recommending this Hostal to back-packers and regular tourists alike.
