Everything was perfect except I hadn't understood that our room that we had booked was an "interior" room which meant that the window overlooked the central aircon units and not the street so was fairly claustrophobic. Shower and towels spectacular, breakfast good and staff friendly and helpful. Great location in the old town and opposite my favourite store Desigual !!!
