“Poor communication, unable to pay the EU tax, unhelpful at finding practical resolution. No refund”
−AVOID! The communication was poor around paying additional tax for EU1.65 which is not part of the payment required as part of the registration in advance online. There was no-one at the property to speak with, no way of paying the tax in cash and the transfer options given did not work and the details given kept stating invalid when attempting a complicated international bank transfer. This issue should be transparent at the time of booking so that customers are aware of this and can make an informed choice if they have no easy means to transfer money in euros. The owner was unresponsive to calls and hung up when a fellow traveler tried to call on my behalf. I was left out of pocket and with nowhere to stay and ultimately had to book a nearby hostel so paid twice for the night. The owner refused to refund despite the explanation of the impossibility of paying this tax. This is a highly touristy area where people from many countries will be seeking accommodation and it is not reasonable to create complicated ways to transfer tiny amounts of money internationally especially if these simply do not work and be unavailable to resolve problems. Had I read the dreadful reviews in advance

“Great location but no great experience.”
+Location is wonderful!
−I am not one to give a poor review. I'm pretty understanding of most circumstances, but this was a poor experience. The property is in bad condition and I tried to shower the evening I arrived. I couldn't get any warm water, so I went to the shower in the hall. Also no hot water. I contacted the property. No response. Went to bed, unshowered, after a long camino hike that day. Next morning I caught the hotel cleaner in the hall and she (was not very friendly, but I won't go into that) and she got on the phone with someone while attempting to bring the water to hot...without success. Anyway, from the lack of warm water, the condition of the room (found someone's personal items under the bed), to the lack of customer support, I can't recommend this hotel.

“Pésima experiencia”
+Únicamente la ubicación.
−Ausencia de limpieza: colcha sucia, suelo sucio, una tela para tapar la ventana que estaba empapada, cuerda para cerrar/abrir la persiana asquerosa, paredes húmedas y frías... Ausencia de retrete. Ducha con alcachofa rota. Lavabo que no abría el agua caliente. El agua de noche ni siquiera funcionaba, ni en la ducha ni en el lavabo. Mal olor general. Mi peor experiencia entre los muchos alojamientos a los que tengo ido, incluidos en Santiago.
