Hostal Hotil in La Coruna

Great value
Easy to check in, clean room and bathroom with everything I needed, including a desk and high speed internet. I'd love to stay here again.

Facilities: Basic facilities, large bed, floor-to-ceiling windows with large windowsills, along the street.

Hygiene: The hygiene of hotels in Spain is very good. This one is relatively average.

Environment: It is the most central downtown area in the city, surrounded by many night bars.

Service: basically self-service, enter by code. If you have any problem, find the old man in the bar next door.

The location of the house is easy to find, not far from the train station, and the price is not expensive

The hotel is incredible well located, surrounded by wonderful places to eat. They even have a super-good restaurant that serve typical and regional food.
It is clean and the staff is super-friendly and helpful.
Next time in La Coruña I will stay there again.

The place is very good for the price, but there will be some small issues. The corner of our rooms wall is chipping paint and discoloured, and the bathroom door doesn’t latch or lock. Otherwise, everything was good, comfortable bed and all works great. Very easily accessible lights and the location of the building itself is very convenient for our needs.

There are things to improve that may cost money. I'm not getting into that. It's true that the prices are very cheap and you couldn't ask for more.

But there are things that are free and can turn around this business that has everything to succeed:

1) Know how to delegate, like in Lucio's house, the older man has to let the younger ones take the reins. His experience is necessary on the terrace with anecdotes and observing the clientele with the eyes of experience. (THAT MAN COULD TEACH US A MOUNTAIN OF KNOWLEDGE)
2) basic hospitality rules, pour drinks, ask customers if everything is okay, DO NOT PUT THE SECOND COURSES AT THE SAME TIME AS THE FIRST.
3) Smile+Education +smile+ smile (it's on our payroll...whether we have a good day or not)
4) If I bring a full plate I always come back with an empty one.
5) practice the welcome and farewell, both for the one who orders the lobster and for the one who orders a cut. (The coffee guy may return tomorrow for the lobster)
6) A spring so that the hostel door does not slam.
7) We have to try the food and observe every day if we go over the point of salt.....for example.

My apologies in advance because it is very easy to give an opinion about the bull from the sidelines. Surely the reality of the business on a day-to-day basis has a lot of information that I don't know.

Sincerely,

A normal person who will return next year to see that you are the best on the street

Hugs and strength

My respects
