    Cons -

    • It's not clear from the description, but this place has no front desk. This is especially annoying because it means you have to share personal identifying information with a third party. It also means I spent 7 hours without wifi because the password is nowhere to be found and nobody responded to my query. Keep in mind you must have internet on your phone or you won't even be able to check in!The rooms are very awkward. I've stayed in plenty of capsule hotels and much smaller rooms in the past, but this room had very poor ergonomics in addition to being small. The mattress literally slid off the bed from underneath me when I rolled to one side because it was covered in some weird slippery plastic. The sheets kept coming undone. The bedside table is too far away to reach, which compounds the problem of the mattress slipping off the bed. You can barely walk past the bed to the bathroom without smashing into the TV. Most of this could be fixed by moving the bed against the wall and using a thinner, harder mattress, but inexplicably the room is set up in the most inconvenient fashion possible. Extremely uncomfortable and frustrating.
    • NEVER saw a staff. Didn’t get restocked during room tidying process. No staff available to get supplies tea, sugar…. Bed not comfortable. I don’t usually have trouble adjusting to beds, I think a new mattress is in order. Sags, on old spring system. Maybe needs new springs. I don’t know.
    • I stayed for 3 nights but only got shampoo for one day. They left me with two tea bags and one of them is already opened. Walls are too thin you can hear every conversation and moaning

    Location and early check in

    I stayed for 3 nights but only got shampoo for one day. They left me with two tea bags and one of them is already opened. Walls are too thin you can hear every conversation and moaning

    good location

    This is one of those places run automatically where you never meet another human being and get a code to open doors. I'm not fond of this way of doing business. i want to be able to ask for food recommendations etc. its lonely basically,

    9RolandoPosted on: 2-27-2025

    The location and the assistance over the phone. First time in such place like this.

    To continually press the elevator bottom to go up or down.?

    10MarceloPosted on: 1-4-2025

    The room was really clean and cozy. I particularly liked the bathroom, which was always clean, with hot water and proper hygiene items (bath gel, towels, and shampoo). The location of the hotel is outstanding: right in the middle of the old town, which is pretty much where most of the touristic spots are. It's walking distance from the bus/train station, the cathedral, the hop-on/hop-off bus, etc.. I would definitely recommend to everyone visiting Cádiz!

    Nothing. Everything was great

    4MilnePosted on: 12-9-2024

    Room was very large

    The noise went on all night. Need to consider double glazing

    7LorenzaPosted on: 9-28-2024

    Great Location, in a traditional building. Easy access and clean room. Close to main attractions. Room had a decent size.

    Room a bit claustrophobic, the only small window had inner view so there was no air. Also a bit dark. I didn’t like that the towels had anti theft tags.

    No comment

    Have you got all day? Overly heavy security ( too many codes and rules) and no guarantee of any better stay as a result. I would be happy to adhere to the extremely complicated check in and so forth if it had ensured a comfortable stay but it did not, despite my strict adherence to everything required of me.. Deafening noise from generator the first night, ( I had my own ear plugs which did nothing to help) other obnoxious guests' noise, loud snoring, ignorant stomping around above head. I came for a holiday, a break from grinding noise. Instead I got this. Awful. If you want a hell of a night, stay here. I had two here and I'm completely exhausted. ?

    Spacious and clean, great location

    WiFi basically didn't work

    8MyriamPosted on: 5-7-2024

    The location right in the center next to everything and the young man who run 3 floors on my last this is what call customer service

    The shower

    6RobertoPosted on: 10-16-2023

    Perfect location to discover Cadiz. The room was quite clean.

    Very noisy. I could hear everything from my room. After checking out, I had to pay to leave my backpack for a few hours.

    6FrankPosted on: 10-11-2023

    Location right in city center.

    Room in a dead end was a bit stuffy.

    8DustinPosted on: 10-6-2023

    Located in / close to downtonw Cadiz. Room equipped with all necessary amenities,

    Room was a bit noise-sensitive

    10AngelaPosted on: 7-22-2023

    Perfect place to spend the night. No frills, basic bed and bathroom and shower. Had full toiletries (shampoo, soap, etc). Great staff, great location. I booked last minute since I missed my train back to Sevilla so worked out perfectly.

    Nothing. It's a basic room.

    7KhokholyakPosted on: 7-16-2023

    Place is good. Very close to get to the bed after long day, or late dinner in the city center

    Could be quite loud if you sleep with the open window.

    7DavidPosted on: 7-16-2023

    The room with a street balcony was good.

    Our first room was claustrophobic. No outside window.

    9RuiPosted on: 6-17-2023

    Awesome location. Great money value. Really comfortable bed.

    9ValbinoPosted on: 4-22-2023

    location in the city center but everything in the city is walkable tho

    there was just construction work near my room but if you’re enjoying Costa de la Luz much it didn’t make that much of a hassle
