Hotel Villa de Betanzos

I walked about 12 miles on the Camino de Santiago and arrived at the Hotel Villa de Betanzos. I was greatly disappointed. The reception was wonderful, but the room is a DUMP. The photos don't show what the room truly looks like. I might have slept 1/2 an hour because of the horribly uncomfortable bed. It was the worst night sleep I've had in a long time. I would NOT recommend.

I appreciated the free underground parking: one of the reasons for choosing the hotel for an overnight stay. The carpark itself looks semi derelict, connecting to the hotel with a passge that smells of damp. The lift takes you to reception which is bright and looks cared for. The two people on reception were helpfull, supplied a map of the town and showed me the places to eat. Our room was a fair size and despite having 4 windows, the double glazing kept out most of the traffic noise. The bathroom was fairly standard and some essentials supplied. I was suspicious about the damp and there was a small ammount of black mold behind a curtain . Breakfast was humble even by Galician standards, provided in a close by building. I was happy to stay for a night but would not have wanted to stay to use it as a base. To clarify earlier comments about the distance from the centre. On the map it does not look far, however the incline back to the hotel may well make you feel it is rather longer.

Hotel habilitado en una antigua construcción, muy amplio, parece ser que no cuentan con personal en temporada baja, por lo que es probable que no tengan atención las 24 hrs. Los propietarios personas muy amables, la habitación en estado regular, los detalles negativos, no estaba surtido el jabón liquido en la regadera y las camas individuales que juntaron para hacer una grande, eran tipo catres, bastante incomodas, no como una cama normal de hotel
