really good stay

friendly staffexcellent serviceconvenient location
i frequently travel. the staff was friendly and accommodating. i received excellent service throughout my stay. i liked that the location was very close to the ocean and the camino, so i could easily explore the area after my camino walk. also, i made use of the quick and reasonably priced laundry services, and my clothes arrived in a basket like a gift.
the walls in my room seemed thin, i could hear some noise from neighboring rooms.
