Lerma is a lovely small historical town. Hotel is just a few mins walk into town where a few shops are based. We had a dog with us (Extra €10 per nt) and within around 50 yds was a delightful country walk but be careful if you leave your dog loose - may come back covered in sticky burrs as I found to my cost! We booked as an overnight stop towards Santander but ferry was cancelled and we were able to stop over for another 2 nights and explore more of the town. Very nice room but although November, the central heating wasn't on but there was an air con unit on the wall directly at the side of the bed which, as it was blowing directly onto me, wasn't very comfortable and it was rather noisy. Curtains are too long (drooping over floor) and I tripped over them while carrying a glass of wine! Apologies to the hotel but really those curtains were an accident waiting to happen. Would we stay there again? - Yes, I think so as long as the prices are reasonable. I think we were paying (around €70 per night) for the location rather than the hotel which is only 2*. There was a very nice looking restaurant attached to the hotel but sadly, due to Covid, it (and every other restaurant, cafe and bar) was closed as Lerma and surrounding area was in strict lockdown. Proprietor has some English as did the cleaning lady so communication with the aid of our limited Spanish helped us through. The car was parked right outside and the area seemed safe. Overall Recommended.
