"Nice little oasis a little further out from the centre of the town. Breakfast spread was good and fresh. The cooked to order option is a nice touch. Perfect for those who has their own transport and would like a cosy little retreat after a long day of sightseeing."
"We didn't realize there were 2 properties under la casa de Don Tomas (check when booking!). We were dropped off at the original location based on the address we gave from Expedia but after speaking with reception at check-in were directed to their El Refugio location, which is the newer expansion and just a 3 minute walk from the original. The rooms were large and peaceful. Breakfast was included and excellent. Would stay here again!"
"A gentleman at the front desk was quite rude. We booked two rooms, and neither of them had heating, even though the outside temperature dropped to 2°C at night. In addition, the doors and windows were not properly sealed, making the rooms even colder.
The next morning, for our second night’s stay, we requested either extra blankets or a space heater. His response was, “Well, this is not my hotel...”
After some back and forth, we eventually received both blankets and a space heater at late afternoon. It appeared that the hotel did not have enough space heaters for all the rooms, which seemed to be the real reason the front desk staff was reluctant to provide one.
Will not recommend to stay there."
"The hotel is a very nice eco friendly hotel indeed with quite nice amenities. The hotel at times is hard to find given the roads that lead into it aren’t easy to navigate.
The staff at times aren’t there at reception but overall quite a good stay indeed for the price and note that the area around the property has no shops so you have to ensure u have a car. The property also has cats and dogs on property which for animal lovers like us is really nice experience too interacting with them."
