Eurostars Aliados
Centrally located within walking distance to many shops and restaurants. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The beds are comfortable (aside from the sofa bed which was not, but it IS a sofa bed after all). Would stay here again.

Excellently located and priced. I've stayed in more expensive but less comfortable hotels. This was perfect for our 3 night stay. Loved it
