    It was a surprise that it's actually not just a hotel but a room in the private home of the hosts. But if you are aware of that beforehand it's actually a great and cheap place to spend the night. The hosts are very welcoming and generous. I could use everything in the kitchen and they put some fruit and water for me in the room. It's a little bit out of the city center, but there are lots of shops and café's nearby.

    Very welcoming staff gave us a glass of cava, carried bags to the room, and ensured we were familiar with all the facilities. We liked the complimentary breakfast provided in the room, featuring local Cantabrian specialities. The advice they gave us about where to eat was excellent - we found ourselves in places frequented by locals, with good food and fair prices. They make every effort to ensure you have a good stay. Well done - I'd stay there again.

    The room was incredible for the price I paid (34 euro for a double room!) it had great views from the room, the bed was large and comfortable and the bathroom was spotless with a powerful shower. The hotel was perfectly located close to some great 'locals' bars. For the price I paid it exceeded my expectations.
