the check-in process is kind of complicated, they "suggested" for us to pay in cash when a credit card terminal was available. WiFi is poor. The hot water was on/off, had to take a really quick shower. good location, the guy at the front -desk was very nice

Hostal el cairo
We booked this hostel last minute through hotel.com app. For $50.00€ when we arrived the clerk told us there was no reservation for us and that, that was not the price for the room. He then proceeded to make a phone call and accommodated us in a room for the price advertised. The room was clean. It isn’t a 5 Star upscale hotel, but it is located right at the heart of the city and it’s attached to its own restaurant. The service at the restaurant was amazing and the food was great. We got to see a lot of beautiful sites and spent very little for our stay.

Is anybody there?
On arrival @ 4.40pm the hostal door was locked. No response from bell push; shouting into lobby; telephone not answered. After 40 mins waiter from ajacent restaurant (same name) gave a phone number of owner who would respond - again no answere. Eventually waitress arrived with a door keys and card with hand written room number then dissapeared!. Requested topfloor quiet room was given first floor ajacent to lift &stairs and nect door restaurant. Very noisy most of the night. Reception only manned on unpredictable occassions and phone contact unreliable. Good point was that daily room cleaning and towel supply eccellent. On our last day finally found someone to help even though no English spoken.

no one was there to help check us in...we were lucky that someone was going in through the locked door upon our arrival so we 'slipped in' with them and just 'called out' for someone. Was very clean and well kempt but noisy street. They did not have a blow dryer(as it was advertised on the website). No english speaking staff which was fine as we just used google translate.

Great Location
Guests in the room next to us were noisy making it difficult to sleep one night. This is not the fault of the hotel. Word of advice to fellow travellers - make sure you pack ear plugs. Older European hotels can be noisy but the location in the historic areas is perfect. We could walk to everything we wanted to see and do.

Disappointed with check-in - it was supposed to start at noon, but when we arrived at 1:45, nobody was at the front desk and the front door was locked. We had to wait outside for 15 minutes, then we were told that it would be another 30 minutes for the room. The room was clean but walls were paper thin.

Central location ideal for city break
Hotel is small clean and ideal location for city break. Staff very helpful. Bar downstairs great, very Spanish so a little spanish helps with communication, we only know a little but could manage drinks and breakfast! Had breakfast outside on the street watching the busy world go by, orange juice , rolls and coffee. Bar staff very friendly. Have stayed here twice and would not hesitate to go back.

Hotel in the old town
The hotel is in a great position to get around everywhere you want to see in Seville. It was also very easy catching the bus from the airport and then a 2 minute walk from the bus stop at Marques de Paradas. To catch the bus back to the airport, it's a 5 minute walk to the bus station at Plaza de Armas- 4 euros each way, excellent value for money. There is free wi-fi at both the hotel and the restaurant, but, you do need to be in the right place to receive the signal.Even though the staff didn't have a lot of English, with a Spanish phrase book you can get by. Strangely, when we arrived, we were expecting the weather to be in the mid 20's, but a mini heat wave hit, so experienced 39 degrees, not used to that at all. It was fabulous to wander around the historical sites and sit in one of the many parks and gardens and just watch the world go by.

Good airconditioning but wifi could be improved
Small but clean and generally quite good hotel. Wifi is free but slow. Another minor thing is that on reception they sometimes have poor English. Air conditioning is good (it was 102F outside but inside it was perfect).

Cuando llegué me dijeron que no tenía reserva y no tenían habitación disponible para mí. Como iba con otros amigos, me ofrecieron habilitarme una cama supletoria en la habitación doble de mis amigos pagando 30€. Accedí porque si no me quedaba aislado de mis amigos. Me dijeron que no me cobrarían la reserva que había realizado. Espero que lo cumplan

Mala experiencia
No pienso repetir. Personal de recepción y guarda-equipajes inexistente, tuve que dejar la maleta en consigna de estación autobuses con el consiguiente traslado porque no había nadie en recepción para poder guardarla. Me pusieron problemas para pagar con tarjeta y cuando dije que era lo que había, milagrosamente se le arreglo el tarjetero. Si no llego a tener el cerrojo de la habitación echado, se me cuela el Sr. de la recepción con la excusa de que se había equivocado. El personal de limpieza bien, pedí una almohada extra y me la dieron sin problema.

酒店胜在价格低，位置好，比较干净。不足之处，无线网络差。发现路由器在底楼账台，2楼信号弱，关上房门，连信号都没有了，基本不能用。另外没有提供电视机，与描述不符。隔壁同名的餐馆似乎也不属于酒店，而酒店只提供睡觉而已，并没有其它酒吧餐饮服务。
