On a car tour of Spain, we planned to stay here one night, but extended a second night; not for the hotel, but to better appreciate the lovely city of Oviedo. We were here in early March, off-season, but on a weekend. The hotel was moderately busy. Staff was friendly and helpful, but didn't seem to go out of their way to offer more. The room we stayed in was on the third floor, with a balcony over the street. We're heavy sleepers and weren't bothered by any street noise at night. The room was functional, not really up to date, but no real complaints. The bar/lounge was mostly abandoned. Parking was under the hotel and was a horror to navigate; totally inadequate, I imagine, during the busy season. (But this is normal for most Spanish cities.) The location was fabulous for the tourist--the cathedral about a block behind the hotel, a university about 3 blocks downhill, a calle peatonal running the length of downtown, ending at the train station. Actually, this hotel would be perfect for the tourist arriving on the train.
