We booked this hotel for one evening to go and see the Carnival. Booked the day before on booking.com and arrived around midday for early check in and the room was ready. The lady was really helpful and suggested that she could save us 5 euros each by buying us tickets for the carnival at the 'hotel guest tariff', which she did.
Our room was very small and it didn't look like it had received any recent attention - very stuffy and a bit dusty. Furniture is essential and modest and the bed spreads could do with a bit of a modern touch (!) but the bed linen was clean and the bathroom was really nice and modern (the shower was great!). The room also had a small safe, hairdryer and TV.
The hotel is in a very good location - it's close enough to the sea and where all the action happens but far enough to be quiet at night.
Breakfast was really nice and I must agree with the other reviews that the owner is definitely very nice and will help you out with anything you need.
Bonus for me was that wi-i is supposedly charged at 4 euros, but it was actually free.
The price was really good compared to other hotels with worse reviews. I would recommend this hotel for a short stay if you're not planning to spend a lot of time at the hotel.
