"Hotel Azul is in the most historic part of downtown across from lovely Plaza de San Sebastián. If you tell a taxis driver “Plaza de San Sebastián,” that’s all they need to know. Not a lot of traffic on this street but taxis on streets above & below. We stayed 9 nights in this small modest hotel and loved it. The staff is very friendly & helpful. Everything downtown is in easy walking distance & there’s lots to see. First floor is one flight up, but luggage assistance is available. "

"The hotel in accommodations were fine the staff was good. My problem was the safety of the shower. The floor tiles were very slick to the foot. The shower doors were glass. I worked in a hotel and we had a guest die from slipping, falling through the glass, cutting himself and bleeding out. (in fairness, the guest was hammered drunk) I didn't shower there, and won't return for this reason alone."
