We loved it, it is also next to the Estrella Galicia brewery museum. With a super full breakfast, comfortable and nice room, and a place super careful in the details. Here goes the recommendation!
Something we do as soon as we arrive in a city, is to book a free tour to get to know better what we are going to see. We love these guided tours to better situate ourselves, walk around the city learning about its history «in situ» and then move on our own.
Note: On Mondays the entrance is free, but in any case you have to go to the ticket office to pick it up, because the entrance to the tower has limited capacity.

Another curiosity that will surely surprise you is that of the three buildings, the Tower of Hercules is not only the oldest, but also the tallest, surpassing the Statue of Liberty without including its pedestal.
