Hostal Albero by gaiarooms
Hostal Uria
Value for money. Suitable for a stop over or a quick trip. The room was spacious and had plenty of plug sockets with a TV. But the toilet flush was broken and so was the shower head tube. Quick response from host when we had questions. Was a bit misled with parking as there is actually no on site ...

Eurostars Las Claras
Generous-sized rooms in this well maintained city hotel. Quiet despite its proximity to the centre, this is an excellent place to stay. The underground car park is accessed by driving your vehicle into an elevator, so not recommended if you have a very large car. Great breakfast selection, too.
