Stayed here 10/11 and 16/17 March while visiting San Sebastian and Bilbao as flew into and out of Santander airport. Got bus outside airport to bus station. €3.20.Hotel is next to bus station. Hotel let me have late check out (6 p.m.) as i'd a late flight - extra €30 euro. Bargain. After trapsing around SS and Bilbao for 5 days it was great to find Lush yesterday and have a bath in the hotel as very foot sore and weary. Its Sunday and Santander is closed!! Bars open so thats ok. If you are flying into Santander and need a bed for the night I highly recommend this comfortable convenient Hotel..

After our arrival to the room, we informed the A/C was not working. Nothing was done. We had to sleep with no A/C on June. The next morning, the problem was again reported.,The first option given was to spend again another night…since we did not acepted then we were changed to another room. We do not recommend this hotel.

Under renovering

Personalen var vänlig och trevlig. Hotellet höll dock på att renoveras och endast en våning var officiellt klar. Första rummet luktade illa i badrummet så vi fick ett annat efter påpekandet. Gardinerna var ej kompletta och vissa möbler saknades i rummet (sängbord, avlastningsbord). Elen försvann tidvis i vissa vägguttag. Badrumsdörr gick inte stänga. Städningen inte helt klar. Kort och gott: hotellet var inte riktigt klart för ”business”.

Relación calidad-coste muy mejorable

La atención del personal fue excelente, nos dieron alternativa a no tener cuna con una habitación más grande y una cama supletoria, estaba muy limpio pero por el estado del hotel y lo que pagamos, tengo que decir que no volvería. La habitación además tiene moqueta, cosa que para un hotel no me gusta y la ubicación tampoco es muy buena (no daba sensación de ser la más segura de Santander a pesar de ser céntrica)

Solo para una noche, al menos en la 203

La habitación que nos tocó era muy pequeña y bastante incómoda ya que no había casi espacio para moverse. El baño tenía bastante moho, y la alfombra no se veía limpia. Eso da mala impresión. Nuestra estadía fue solamente de una noche por lo tanto no es tan terrible. La ubicación muy buena frente al terminal de autobuses. El personal de recepción muy amable!
