Read moreWe stayed here for one night having driven from Calais. If in a car, put'Parking Plaza Mayor' in the satnav, this will take you directly to the centre of the city, to the car park that is below Plaza Mayor, when parked, you will exit in the Plaza, the hostel is around a 1 minute walk. Remember to tell the hostels reception if you have a car as they have a rate of 12 Euro/night when you pay at the hostel. Visit the bar or reception, most helpful guy, he will give you the key for the room and outside door. There is a lift as the building is 5 floors.We were on the top floor in a double room. Virtually silent at night with the window open. Very good shower, very clean. Did not have breakfast as we were up too early, but cafe opposite the cathedral is open at 07:00.Will definitely stay again.Great...
