Casa Ruy Lopez

The family room was spacious and very quiet at night. The staff were friendly and quick to reply on WhatsApp, and Plaza Grande is just a 4min walk away. Breakfast was excellent. The bed was comfortable, made from two singles pushed together, and the room came with a kettle, complimentary tea and bottled water. Good water pressure and lots of room in the shower. One odd drawback: the ceiling slopes down to just 6’ by the edge of the bed, and around 4.5’ at the closet.

The only real downside was hearing noise from the hallway and reception. Otherwise, this is a lovely little hotel, cozy with attractive interiors and roomy bedrooms. The service was attentive, and the breakfast buffet had lots of choices.

The host was helpful and very nice. Our room was clean and bigger than most at this price in Spain. There are free public parking spaces just 1min away, and we found one without any trouble. Breakfast was the typical Spanish kind, with tostatas, coffee, fresh orange juice and some sausage.

We stayed here several weeks ago, and we're furious about how a mailing was handled. My friend left valuable ear rings behind. A drawer handle had accidentally ended up in our luggage, so we sent it back by registered mail. The owner sent the ear rings back without registration, apparently saving a few cents instead of a few euros, and they were lost in transit, presumably stolen. We'd gladly have paid for registered delivery, but wrongly assumed that would be used. The hotel itself was a delight, but we would NEVER stay here again.
