Hostal Guzman El Bueno by gaiarooms
Never encountered a human being but all went well with checkout. Room was clean and quiet. Shower was old and had black(mold?) in the caulking. The sink faucet was dripping a lot…

Hospedería Pax
Beautiful compact section of old ciiy. We were impressed with the cathedral, esp. stained glass, but we also were amazed with the romanesque San Isidiro.

Hotel Real Colegiata San Isidoro
This hotel was located within the walls of the old city. At first hard to find, but access to the hotel with a car was fine and they have parking available. The courtyard of the hotel was beautiful especially at night.
