Hotel Vincci Ciudad de Salamanca
This time we booked the superior double because we knew we would need to relax after a long drive. It was an excellent choice. Spacious, comfortable, clean, well luminated, powerful shower............worth the extra cost. Breakfast was again excellent. Scrambled egg and bacon cooked hot to order
