Hotel Rural Las Calas in Gran Canaria Island This is a very nice and quiet manor house. We spent nine nights here in Las Calas. The food was superb. I recommend staying here to know the secret of Gran Canaria. It's a very good value!!
Falow in Gran Canaria Does exactly what it says on the tin. Basic but clean and quiet, and very cheap! For only 10 euros you get a room to yourself with a basin, so no queuing just to brush your teeth, and some rooms have a toilet (which feels really odd, doing your business in your own room).
