It was just for over night and we arrived late into SCQ. We found a good value, clean room which was a little like student digs but the convenience to the airport and the bathroom were good, as was the price.

Short stay

Very helpful person at the front desk. Sounded like the establishment owner but cannot be sure about that. He helped us find the correct bus into the city which was very helpful. Buses are frequent during the day and only a few metres from the property, which was simple but very clean with a good shower and bathroom. The place seems to be run very professionally. It's not flashy - basic but comfortable enough and very clean and tidy. About 20 minutes to the city by bus. Happy and thank you for your care and attention. We would return without worry. :)

The staff is very friendly, helpful and professional. The hotel is located in San Marcos which is very close to Santiago. The bus 6A coming from Santiago's airport stops right in front of the hotel. Price of bus ticket one euro. The bus 6 which goes to Santiago starts the route right across the street. Bus ticket price also one euro. I used the hotel laundry service and just for 12 euro they did a large bag for me and delivered to my room early in the evening within the same day. Highly recommended and very good value.

Amazing hotel with great service!!

This was our second time staying here. We stayed the night before we started our Camino and returned for 3 days after our Camino. It's just a few meters from the Camino, so very easy to get back on for our final walk to the Cathedral. The hotel is just a little outside the city center but an easy ride into town on the bus 6 from right in front of the hotel for only 1€. The hotel owners were AMAZING at helping us with everything!! They helped make sure we were on the right bus into town and back to the airport. Very friendly service. The room was lovely and exactly what we needed. Very clean rooms! Will most definitely stay here again on our return to Santiago de Compostela and the Camino!

Estamos super contentos y agradecidos por haberme hospedado en este hotel, el personal muy amable, más el señor Recepcionista, nos explicó todo, el hotel muy limpio y cómodo y sobre todo lo que nos gustó es que al frente del hotel está el bus que puedes ir a todas partes en tan solo unos minutos.
