    Very clean and location was fine. Not especially central like other people have said, but you can see that when you're booking it so I didn't mind. Very convenient for the bus!! Bathrooms and bedrooms were spotlessly clean and room was basic, but in a good way - not luxury but comfortable enough if you need just a bed at night. Staff were very helpful and understanding when I had a bit of a problem and sorted me out. Generally friendly before that as well.

    It was great value for money which was important considering we were students on a budget. Daniel and Cesar at front desk were amazing, giving us recommendations for things to do both in Santander and Cantabria (if you rent a car). The location was perfect - a 5 minute walk from the centre - and the rooms were cleaned spotless everyday.
