Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located with a friendly staff, but the dark-colored bathrooms may not suit everyone's taste. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering vegetarian and vegan options. The facilities are well-maintained, with no significant issues reported.
The hotel offers a central location, but lacks a sitting area. The rooms have dark colored bathrooms, the service is attentive, and the dining features Spanish cuisine. However, the lack of a sitting area affects social interactions, and the price may not fully match the experience.
The hotel is ideally located with a beach nearby and close to restaurants. The rooms are clean and cozy, and the staff is exceptionally welcoming. Nevertheless, the rooms have dark-colored bathrooms, which may not suit everyone's taste. The service is commendable, offering various conveniences. The absence of a sitting area in the location could be a drawback. The dining experience is satisfactory, especially with freshly prepared salads. The facilities are adequate to ensure a pleasant stay.
