Super convenient and comfortable stay, within walking distance to the main tourist attractions but also out of the way enough that we were able to escape some of the business and explore some more local spots. Very easy check and in and staff were friendly.

Comfortable stay.

The clerk was very helpful in directing us how to use the Metro to go to the airport. Excessive talking in the hall when someone was checking at 2am was not appreciated.

Cool & comfortable reprieve in Spain

We really enjoyed our short stay at Hostal Elkano even though we had to work at communication with our limited Spanish and their limited English. One of the most impressive and welcomed aspect was the ductless air conditioning unit because the weather was very hot during our stay. We would definitely stay there again!
