The positive first:
Cruz de Tejeda is amazing with the views and the hiking trails.
In the hotel they have an amazing salon from which you can see as well sunset and sunrise (though the windows needed cleaning).

The most relevant:
- The mattress in our room was super old and hard. Although I prefer it when they are slightly harder than average I stayed awake for hours.
- The pillows are super thin and weak. So together with mattress it was not much better then sleeping on a carpet on the floor.

Also negative about the room
- The isolation was really bed. You heard everyone walking, talking. You heard even the toilet use of your neighbor.
- There was only one blanket although we booked for two.
- The blanket did not even had a real linen (just some thin fabric placed below the blanket.

At the end I had my worst night for several years. I stayed awake for more than 3 hours until I was that tired that I even slept with these conditions.
In the morning it was not possible to sleep either since you heard every other guest walking through the floor.

This might be an awesome location. But the management does not really care to keep it good.

Small and basic but did the job. Low ceilings in the loft room. Shared TV available in the common space and balcony to enjoy a beer from the market stalls across the road. Friendly staff and decent on site French restaurant.

A nice rustic place to stop. Good restaurant with a limited menu. Breakfast was nice.

I will start by saying this is a beautiful idea... However, it is not for everyone's taste. This hotel is for hikers and adrenaline junkies. This hotel is for those who want to go back to basics and have a simple stay. This hotel is for those who are used to the mountains, the windy roads, and living-on-the-egde (literally!). The hotel has communual areas (deceiving on pictures). The parking is very awkward and limited along with the dinner's. Friendly service but not luxury. Food is not up to high standards, not worth the price. It is a French-Dutch influence hotel (not Spanish culture if you are looking for that). Surprises will be full parking, breakfast as an extra cost per day (not much choice with that being the location it is at, interesting guests (you hear it all). Bedrooms lack necessities and are very old-fashioned and simple. Be aware that this location is the heart of very scary, narrow, long, unsafe windy roads that go on forever (if you are not used to that). Not for everyone! Unique and beautifully decorated with spectacular views.

The hotel is right on the path of Camino de Gran Canaria, therefore super convenient. I booked the attic room on their website. As could can expect the attic room meant hitting our head many times in the low ceiling. Otherwise this issue and the uncomfortable bed the hotel is great and the receptionist was very lovely. The restaurant for breakfast and dinner is a great choice. There are no shops nearby so also the only choice.
