Normally the reception is closed in the evening, but because they knew we would arrive by train in later in the evening, they waited specially for our check-inn until we arrived. The hotel is the old primary school of the village and it is nicely...

Quirky property with lots of character. Lovely friendly owner. Good location about a 10 minute walk to the sea. Really liked Guethary, hidden gem.
