La Casona de Mestas

  : We stayed 2 nights as we were exploring the Ponga national park. Breakfast was enough, plenty of toast and jam, freshly pressed orange juice, good coffee. Cake a little different but good. The spa was 5 per person for 1 hour, it is a little pool about 300mm deep and the water tepid but invigorating. We all noticed the benefit to our skin. The steam rooms and showers don't seem to operate here, the sauna is working but would take too long to warm up. They were friendly with minimal English but more than willing to try. We ate here one night and the food was very good. We also had a Lunch at Casa Severa in Sobrefoz which is an experience worth trying, we walked from San Juan De Beleno to Sobrefoz about an hour over a rough path which is marked. Good fun if you are reasonably fit. We left early to catch the ferry with a quick visit to Cangar De Onis to see the bridge. Pongo and Picos are slow driving with many wonderful views. There was a sitting room in the hotel where we could all sit together and play cards which we appreciated. The value for money here is remarkable.
  : The hotel is lovely but getting a little tired

Poor
Traveller Type:
  : Check in was good. Friendly hostess.
  : The room was very noisy (music on the terrace until 12 at night) and smelled a lot like fried food, also in the bathroom and rest of the floor (also the places to sit with the couches etc.). It was like staying in a city center instead of being in the mountains and forest. Bed also extremely firm (old?). The place is quite run down and not very clean (greasy). The staff tried to change rooms, which wasnt possible for at least the first night because the hotel was fully booked. We didnt want to stay any longer, so we choose to leave. We booked for 3 nights, but left after 1.
