"Me alojé en el Hotel Sancho con mi familia y desayunamos en la cafetería Don Quijote, trato y servicio muy bueno, tanto el hotel como la cafetería nos atendieron y nos dieron un excelente servicio. Volvermos a repetir."

"We stayed at hotel Sancho and went out for breakfast first days. Not sure why, this cafe was excellent. Excellent toasted croissants, good coffee and youghurt w fresh fruit and musli. Looks nice and the service was very efficient. No need for concept breakfast restaurants when you can go here ;-)"

"Sitio pequeño pero con clase. Acogedor y buen trato. Tiene el aspecto de cafetería de hotel, pero se puede merendar muy bien. Variedad de cosas para picar algo, pero no es un sitio de comidas, cenas o racionero a mi gusto. Un sándwich mixto y una cañita es buena merienda-cena."
