We are a family of 5 and stayed in the family suite. The rooms were excellent, perfect size, had A/C, and each had their own bathroom. The breakfast was robust- many options including eggs, cheeses, meats, baked goods, fruit, juices, and fresh coffee. The location is perfect!! Close to everything or a 9-min walk to the train station to explore. Totally recommend this place!

Lovely easy to find Hostal inside old town walls. Easy walk from train station and to all landmarks in town.
I had a single room which had both a fridge and jug, a very comfortable bed with lovely doona, air-conditioning, TV (but small and too high on wall and reception for English language channels was often non-existent) and it was serviced daily by lovely staff. Bathroom was cosy but adequate and shower was excellent.
Upstairs is a common/breakfast room with microwave and plates etc for making you own meal.
Yes, reception is on 3rd floor but there is a lift, so no big deal.
Would I stay there again, absolutely (although I don't think I'd go back to Santiago de Compostela as it is far too touristy - A Coruna was much nicer).

Though the rooms are small, they mostly face away from the busy roads and alleys around Plaza de Galicia. The air conditioning functioned very well and the bed was comfortable. The automatic card tap entrance was convenient. Probably best for only one traveler at a time but was an excellent experience.

Good rest after the Camino
I really enjoyed my rest here after my Camino de Santiago. It was small, but I was solo and didn't need much room. It was facing to the inside so very quiet. It's placed on a small quiet street. A little hard to find, but once you get used to it, no problem. Everywhere is relatively close in Santiago old town.

Is a little difficult to find. And whe is found you will not know what to think. As soon as you are taken to your room you realize how nice the property is. The room is small and very well decorated. Complete with toiletry. Automatic blinds. A very nice place. I recommend it.

Mapoula - a good place to stay in Santiago
I thought the room was well presented and happy with cleanliness. My towels were wet so I left them on the floor to be replaced and the attendant neglected to give me a replacement bathmat.
I fully paid in advance for three nights but within the cancellation period realised I only wanted two nights so rang to cancel. I was not impressed a refund was not given in full.
The convenience of your accommodation to the center and old City of Santiago was excellent.
