We had a great time here. Everything was perfect and we felt well looked after by the host of the property. The location was close to town but away from the bustle. Best, I just found the hotel pretty and attractive and a calm oasis just like in the photos. It felt nice to be there with relaxing music playing out side.

This property has character and some charm.

Sometimes you go to a place where they make you feel like family. Thats how we felt at Maidith. Elvira and Carlos, the proprietors, were kind, helpful, and just all around amazing people. The hotel is definitely one of the best….the Gaudi inspired architecture is so lovely. The room was spotless our entire stay. The shower was hot and the AC was cold.
