Short distance from main square but walkable. Restaurant on site serving off menu and buffet on weekends. Rooms are quiet with nice pool in courtyard. Would stay again if in the area. Can be busy in dining room on weekends for buffet as outside people come to dine.

Needs to be renovated

Nothing positive about this hotel. Everything was bad. From the front desk, to the condition of the room, to the old worn out towels. This place leaves much to be desired and a complete renovation. Zero stars!!!!!

It is indeed a really nice hotel and located in the city center. The breakfast was good as well, but our room was above the kitchen and they started to work at 6ish and have been very loud, so we couldn’t sleep anymore. The room had a good size, but the toilet in the bathroom was so close to the wall it was a bit to narrow for a normal European person, the knees caught the wall. But all in all a really nice stay :)

We booked the room with the hot tub which was great! The room was clean, modern, bed extremely comfortable. Restaurant onsite is good. There's no safe in the room so that's an opportunity the hotel could add for improvement. The only downside I recall is the room was next to a busy street but I had earplugs so those solved that issue and slept really well!

Hotel room was nice and clean. Bed was pretty hard. It's walkable into town but it's not real close & there's not good sidewalks. We booked the room with the hot tub but didn't read the details well enough and were disappointed to find it was actually a spa tub.

Jason was friendly and provided information about surrounding areas. Hotels is about 20 min walking distance. Breakfast was homemade and decent. The only inconvenience was the flooding of the shower. Drainage was not properly drained.

Excellent stay and wonderful service

Location: Valladolid in general is small city and totally walkable. Takes 15 minutrs to get to hotel from main square or it costs roughly 30-35 pesos with taxi from the main square to hotel. Breakfast: very delicious and filling. Included eggs, pancake/waffle, fruits, bread, jam, coffee. Service: exceedingly attentive, polite and kind. They went above and beyond in even helping us with other non-hotel items we needed during our stay. Thanks to the boy at front desk, the young girl covering for him at night and the restaurant staff for making our stay feel special. Room: clean, private bathroom, includes TV, coffee/tea provided in the room, bed was very comfortable. Overall: highly recommend and would most definitely come back!

The rooms are much smaller than what they appear to be online. We asked for Larger room and they didn’t have one available which was ok. I was only laying in the bed for just a min and in that min, 5 ants crawled on me. Upon further inspecting of the room, we noticed a swarm of dead bugs all over the floor near the closet, and a few trail of ants in different areas of the room. We alerted the front desk and he apologized and tried to take action. He called the owners and the owners declined our request for a refund. He offered us a smaller room or two separate rooms which wasn’t going to work with our 6 and 10 year old child. We ended up leaving and staying elsewhere. We didn’t feel good about staying in any of the other rooms, Very disappointed and I would not recommend this hotel based on our first impression, our room and the way the owner handled this situation. They will probably have some crap excuse like that did with the other bad reviews. Don’t waste your time or money here. I hope the money you didn’t return to us was worth this bad review and others not visiting in the future

A great place and location. Some anecdotal hiccups hurt my experience here, but I’d give it a second chance. The staff was kind enough to allow us early check-in at 1PM. We arrived at 1PM but didn’t get into our room until 1:45PM. Afterward, we don’t have water until nearly 3PM (they said they were changing water pipes). If we knew this, we would’ve just checked in at the normal 3PM time. Kinda bummed we lost two hours just waiting for a shower, but not necessarily their fault— just bad timing. I booked this room for the jacuzzi. It worked, but it wasn’t great. The water fluctuated between lukewarm and sort of hot. Only three jets worked. Nice location. If you stay, you must visit the torta place on the corner and order the Huracán Rameriz.
