Basic and clean

Location is great. The room is basic, but clean. Interior room, so you dont hear the noise from the street. You can hear your neighboors, so it depends who is staying in. I liked my stay.

Habitación con telarañas colgando del techo sobre una de las camas. Lleno de polvo. Tuvimos que pedir que limpiaran de nuevo al hacer el check-in. Aún así, el espejo de la habitación, muebles, puertas y esquinas se veía que hacía muchísimo tiempo que no se limpiaban. Uno de los colchones deberían tirarlo directamente. Lamentablemente, de las 3 noches que teníamos pagadas, solo pudimos quedarnos una ya que el lugar no está en condiciones de quedarse mucho más. Las fotos no corresponden con la habitación. Le hace falta una buena mano de pintura. Marcas de dedos negros sobre la pared. Al salir, sabiendo que nos íbamos antes, no se interesaron ni en preguntar qué había pasado. Le explicamos todo y no pudieron rebatir ni una sola palabra. Ni siquiera se ofrecieron a compensarnos de alguna manera. Una simple limpieza extra, que viendo lo que habían limpiado en la primera, no hubiera servido de mucho. Esta triste experiencia no ha costado dos noches extra en otro lugar.

Hostal con muy mala higiene. Habitación sucia donde mi pareja y yo sufrimos graves picaduras de chinches, por las cuales tuvimos que acudir a urgencias. El hostal no admite culpa alguna; según ellos, la limpieza de las habitaciones es estricta. La realidad es que encontramos pelos ajenos, sábanas manchadas y toallas de pésima calidad. Somos conscientes de hasta dónde se le puede exigir a un hostal de este nivel, y ni siquiera iba a escribir una reseña; pero el tema de las chinches ha sido el detonante, ya que se eximen de cualquier tipo de responsabilidad, cuando las pruebas son claras. En el hospital nos confirmaron que las picaduras fueron provocadas por chinches de cama. No hemos dormido en ningún otro sitio durante las vacaciones. Amigos con los que compartimos el viaje —y que no se alojaban allí— no han tenido ninguno de estos síntomas. Solo espero que no le vuelva a pasar a nadie más.

Ich war eine Woche im Hostal und war zufrieden. Klar es ist eine Budget Unterkunft, aber dafür mehr als in Ordnung. Mein Zimmer war immer sauber, und auch wenn es ziemlich hellhörig war, war es nie zu laut. Als Base für Unternehmungen auf der Insel ist die Unterkunft mehr als soldie. Das Personal war stets freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Lage ist großartig, in den angrenzenden Lokalen am Charco de San Gines kann man den Abend super ausklingen lassen (Besonders das Restaurant Chapo kann ich zu später Stunde empfehlen) Auch die angrenzenden Straßen haben ihren eigenen Charm Im großen und ganzen kann ich die Unterkunft nur weiterempfehlen.
