I had a decent stay at Hotel Virgen Del Socavon, with comfortable beds and helpful staff. The location is excellent, right by the main square, but the noise level from building work and other guests was quite disruptive. Breakfast was just average, making it suitable for a one-night stopover rather than a prolonged stay.

My stay at Hotel Virgen del Socavón was fairly enjoyable. The location is excellent, right in front of the main square, which made exploring the town easy. However, the noise levels during the day from construction work and at night from other guests made it a bit difficult to rest fully. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, which really enhanced my experience overall.

I had a pleasant stay at Hotel 'Virgen Del Socavon,' thanks to the friendly and accommodating staff who allowed me to check in early after a long train ride. The location is perfect, right in front of the main square and next to the beautiful church. However, the noise from the building work and lack of sound insulation made it tough to get a good night's sleep. 🛌😴

My stay at Hotel Virgen Del Socavon was a mixed bag. The staff were super friendly and let me check in early after a tiring train ride, which was a huge plus. The location is fantastic, right next to the cable car and with a great view of the plaza. However, the room was quite noisy due to ongoing construction and other guests, making it tough to get some good rest.

Breakfast was decent, though I wish there had been more choices on the second day. It would have been great to have proper coffee instead of instant. The views from the top floor cafe were nice, but it was rarely open.

While the hotel offers several convenient facilities, the clutter in the ground floor entrance was a bit concerning in terms of safety. I also found the WiFi to be inconsistent.
