Questions guests ask
- Check-in is from 13:00, check-out until 11:00. Reception is in the main building at the top of the property, and the coworking desks are in the same building.
- Yes. We are legally required to register every guest before they stay. Use the registration button further up this page and scan your ID. The back side scans better than the front. When the form asks for "Parentesco", pick "Other". We still have to see the physical ID when you arrive, so keep it somewhere you can reach.
- The network is Hamlet's Friends and the password is Shakespeare. Log in once and it covers the whole property. If it drops, the live internet and WiFi status page shows what is up right now, and whether the outage is ours or the provider's.
- Yours alone. Each cabaña is a small house of its own, with a bedroom, living room, kitchen, bathroom and a private terrace. What you share is the common area, the garden and the coworking space.
- Every cabaña has its own kitchen with everything you need except an oven. The shared kitchen in the common area has one, so anything that needs baking happens there.
- We clean your cabaña top to bottom before you arrive, and there is a daily cleaning service after that. Sheets and towels are made up for you, and we will swap them sooner if you ask. Soap, shower gel and toilet paper are already in the bathroom.
- Both. We wash and dry a load for you if you ask. Nothing fancy, but it works. And if you arrive before check-in or stay on after check-out, your luggage can wait with us.
- Yes, pets are welcome in the cabañas. Well-behaved dogs and cats up to 20 kg, with a pet surcharge of €15 per cleaning. Tell us when you book, and keep them under control so other guests get their quiet too.
- We have two BBQ spots set up for it. Not in high summer, though. Grilling is banned during the official red-alert period, roughly late June to mid-October, because the hills here burn easily.
- A kitchen with an oven, games, books, a TV, and a dining table that seats ten. It is where people end up when they would rather not eat alone.
- Right next to the cabañas, and directly in front of Casa Rural El Molino if you are staying in a room. Free, and no hunting for a space.
- The big public pool in the village opens in July and August. Every cabaña gets one free day pass for it.
- Yes, a small one for the basics, open weekdays 08:30 to 13:30 and 18:00 to 20:00. There is a pharmacy as well. For a bigger shop, Talavera de la Reina is about 30 minutes away.
- Yes, full access comes with every stay at no extra charge. The desks are in the main building at the top of the property, the same one as reception.
- Our own restaurant is a two-minute walk into the village. Lunch Tuesday to Sunday, dinner Wednesday to Saturday, closed Mondays. You book by phone, WhatsApp or email, not online. More about El Molino
- 23:00 to 08:00. The rest of the house rules are short: no smoking indoors, nothing but toilet paper down the toilet, and clean up after yourself in the kitchen and the common areas.
