Hotel del Centro

Bad soundproofing

My husband and I stayed for one night in Room 22. It’s a large room with three beds, an entranceway that buffers noise from the corridor, with a little balcony off the bathroom. The room was very clean. The bathroom has good water pressure and plenty of hot water. The room is quiet with little street noise. The temperature of the bedroom (which is centrally controlled) was good, although the bathroom was cool in the morning. The location of the hotel is excellent for sightseeing or shopping. It’s a five-minute walk from the train/bus station, and the airport shuttle. The hotel harks back to another era; the décor is dated but well maintained. The included breakfast buffet was excellent: choices included boiled eggs, ham and cheese, with bread, cereal, yogurt, pastries, fruit cocktail and a coffee bar. The hotel staff are friendly and helpful. This is an excellent option for budget travellers.

We slept in separate beds because the mattress on the double bed sagged, and my husband needs a firm bed. The noise of the squeaky bed springs was an annoyance every time I turned over. The wifi connection was very weak in the room; my husband had difficulty watching Netflix.
