Very quaint place to stay. We loved the old world ambiance. Breakfast didn’t offer enough protein but was good. The beach is a close walk. Very nice place to stay. It was hot so we had to sleep with the windows open and could hear some people talking in the courtyard until really late.

Nautically-themed comfortable hotel
The hotel feels dated but it's nautically themed so it's forgiveable. Found myself having to isolate a buzzing switchboard however at night to sleep. Great staff, nice comfortable room and a decent shower. Bit of a walk from the bus station but would be a short taxi ride and plenty of on street parking available. Close to the beach.

Really nice hotel, with a vintage charm. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. As other reviewers have said, I could hear conversations in the adjoining room. Location was great for the beach and restaurants.

The Ancla is a throwback in time. Some may call it dated, as it seems like the 1970's, but the place is in good condition and perfectly clean. The hotel is practically a maritime museum. Ships wheels, compass, and other ship parts scattered about for display, wonderful oil paintings of ship scenes, it is fantastic. It will not me my last stay here, for sure. The low- No air-conditioning. This would not be a great choice in hot weather. The high- The atmosphere is unique and interesting and the people there are fantastic, I felt like one of the family. Maria seems to be everywhere at once and so willing to make your stay as wonderful as possible. Always with a beautiful smile!

Wonderful Stay!
This hotel is located about 1 block from the beach. I received a warm welcome and easy check in. There is a beautiful courtyard which seemed to attract many songbirds. I had a very pleasant stay and a nice breakfast in the morning.

Nice stay at Ancla
Very good experience, some of our party arrived very early but where allowed to access the room. Room was good. Hotel was pretty empty as time of year but no problems.

Not as promised.
Rooms outdated and need sprucing up. Carpet in room needs a good cleaning or, better, replacement. The place is very 1970’s. Location is good and the garden most pleasant.

The hotel manager was very accommodating in allowing me to park my motorcycle safely right next to the main entrance of the hotel. On the downside the hotel is somewhat run down and in urgent need of refurbishment, it was like a time warp going back to the 1970's!

Lovely big grounds with tables, chairs and lounges to enjoy either an afternoon drink from the bar, or breakfast in the morning. Very attentive and helpful staff. Amazing big breakfast included and enjoyed in the garden.

Albergo piacevole a Laredo, pochi passi dal mare
Hotel un pò retrò a pochi metri dal lungomare di Laredo, staff gentilissimo, arredi delle parti comuni d'impronta marinaresca, un bel salotto con camino. Colazione servita al tavolo, anche in giardino volendo.
