Best rooms
For the best experience at Casa Cecilia, request a room on the upper floors (2nd or 3rd) as they are likely to be quieter, given the hotel's rural location in Malpais. This will also provide a better chance of enjoying the views of the surrounding countryside.
Request rooms on the upper floor away from the driveway. The single-floor layout means all rooms are at ground level, so ask for units furthest from the reception and car park to minimise footfall noise.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor, as they may be noisier due to potential street noise from the main road. Although the hotel has wheelchair ramp access, the stairs-only access to all floors means that guests and staff may be more active on the ground floor, leading to increased noise.
Rooms near the entrance or parking area. Malpais is a dusty coastal town with gravel roads; those closest to arrivals get headlight shine and early-morning engine noise.
