Hostal Esmeralda

El personal y la ubicación excepcional!

Todo ha sido positivo. Muy céntrico, limpio, sencillo pero sufiviente, amabilidad de propietarias, cómoda cama, localizado próximo a multitud de bares y tiendas, en pleno centro, me ha gustado mucho. No puedes ir buscando lujos, es un establecimiento sencillo, si esto lo llevas claro al hacer la reserva, todo te irá bien.

Para el precio y sin desayuno es muy costoso.

Check in people were not courteous, at least the older woman was not. Then later, when I walked out of my room into a smokey hall, I said I thought it was non-smoking here? She said yes and pointed to a no-fumar sign on the wall. I said I smelled smoke, she said she didn't and again pointed to the wall. Like, "since there's a sign here, there's just no way there could be a smell of smoke." Turns out, she was a smoker, so of course she couldn't smell it. Sigh. The place is old and run-down. No security, the hotel says there's a safe in the room, but it doesn't say it's a safe you have to pay a euro each time you use it. PLUS, it's mounted to a thin wood shelf that is tacked-on with finishing nails that have all come loose, so when you pull open the safe door, the whole shelf slides out. Someone can just grab the shelf or safe and walk off with it all. Silly. And deceptive to advertise an in-room safe as if it's an amenity, then turn around and charge you for it. And it's not "safe" as a safe anyway since anyone can just carry the whole safe off with the flimsy shelf it's mounted to. Bed was firm and I liked that. Place is old and noisy, sound from TV's in other rooms, people talking, etc. Not a place I'd ever stay again. I'd opt for a tent in the woods...

Excellent staff and great location I will return Thank you

great location........................................ .

If you’re looking for a budget hotel to stay on your own, it’s Hostal Esmeralda. Buzzed entry. Clean hotel, building is old but it has its charm. It has a small bathtub and if you have a city view be prepared to hear music from surrounding bars and clubs.

The hosts were kind and helpful. The location was amazing. We were on the street side and it was very loud during the weekend. We enjoyed our stay.

Single room had a double bed which cramped the room. No hotpot like Hostel San Soles had. Still, a decent place and close to everything.
