Most convenient for the ferry, the bus and train stations and the city. A bit of difficulty in finding the entrance ,the sign is not very conspicuous

10/10

I stayed here for two nights. The hotel is directly opposite the bus station so extremely easy to get there from the airport, takes about 20 mins by bus for €2.90. The hostal was clean, modern, comfortable and quiet. The lady who checked me in was friendly and accomodation. The location is perfect for exploring the city and the prices are extremely reasonable. Will be my first choice for my next trip to Santander.

nous avons annulé notre séjour pour plusieurs raisons : arrivés sur place nous avons attendu un quart d'heure que quelqu'un nous ouvre, sonné plusieurs fois sans succès ; nous sommes rentrés car quelqu'un sortait de l'établissement ; arrivés à la porte, de nouveau même problème sonnerie sans effet; attente dans un couloir étroit avec valises et personnes qui sortaient de lascenceur .. pas terrible; finalement on nous a ouvert, pas la gestionnaire mais une mamie qui nous a expliqué que la personne en charge allait arriver ; ce qui s'est passé au bout d'une demi heure ! aucune excuse, nous nous sentions mal et avons annulé. mauvais plan. déçue qu'il y ait des établissements de la sorte sur ce site
