"Looking for somewhere to stay as I travelled from the Santander ferry to the Algarve, I chose this hotel as it was relatively close to the motorway. I arrived just after 22:00; too late for food but my key was waiting for me. Plenty of parking. A good nights sleep, a refreshing shower and breakfast included. My journey resumed and I may return next year."

"Great staff, very clean, very modern, and all geared toward wheelchair users. Having breakfast (basically three factory-sealed pastries and a hot beverage) delivered on a trolley to your room was a first (and it felt rather like I was in my grandmother’s retirement home). Long walk into the historic area - but we loved exploring the area and the nearby Mesón El Pestorejo Los Eméritos was a fab fine for us - great food and local atmospere. "
