"Comfortable and clean rooms, simply but adequately furnished... Good value for anyone simply looking for a place to sleep. Those in Mendez II are slightly better, with en-suite bathrooms. Cash only."

"Across from the Teatro Arriaga in the Casco Viejo, this design hotel has a blended style of contemporary and antique. ... the street below can be noisy on weekends."

Lonely Planet
"Brings the style of today to a building of yesterday. Rooms have large, soft beds... and some come with river views. We have, however, received a few complaints about road noise."
