Colon

Location was perfect. Breakfast was fine. They let me pick whatever I wanted. I preferred a yogurt and apple to toast spread with tomato puree, which is the Spanish standard. All you have to do is ask.

Communication could be better. No English is spoken. When I checked in and saw the room I was assigned, I was ready to walk and lose my deposit. It was horrible. Dark and tiny. Dingy. Awful. Small twin or smaller bed crammed up against a wall. Worse than a college dorm room. The shower was big enough for a petite Asian woman to stand in and not be able to bend over or turn around. I do not think I could stay there for one night. I went back to front desk where a person works as bartender next door and also does check-in. I asked if a room with windows and bigger bed. He checked and gave me a much, much nicer room. This room (203) had big French doors opening out onto a terrace. You could stand on terrace and see the street. Double bed. He said nothing about additional charges. He could have written it on a piece of paper (the number). Instead, it was not until I checked out after 5 nights that I was presented with a bill for $75 additional. It would have been nice if I had been told about it BEFORE I got the bill NOT AFTER the fact. The hotel was not very busy and half empty so it should not have been such big deal to upgrade me and charge me.
