chambre parfaite, très propre, vue sur la mer. seul bémol au séjour, le buffet, rien n'est bon, toujours les mêmes entrées, les plats sont plus variés mais pas appétissant, viande trop cuites, mêmes les frites ne sont pas bonnes, toujours froides. les desserts toujours les mêmes, avec des couleurs très surprenantes.

Avoid this hotel at all costs

Nice first impression at check in but this soon changed with vomitting from eating in the hotel restaurant at breakfast All guests on our booking suffered and reception just dont care for wellbeing of their guests. The only recommendation I have is to book another hotel as your holiday will surely be ruined.

El personal, muy amable. El Spa, pequeñito pero está bien. El Gym, muy descuidadas las máquinas, estaban oxidadas. La limpieza…. Muy mejorable, debajo de la cama, había muchísimas pelusas y en el pasillo, rompieron algo de cristal y no quitaron los cristalitos, solo los más grandes.

Muy lindo hotel y cómodas camas. La habitacion no estaba muy ventilada, el extractor del baño no funcionaba. Estuvimos una sola noche asi que no importó. No hay muchas opciones de restaurantes a distancia caminable, los que hay son algo caros, pero se puede cenar en el hotel en restaurant buffet a 15 euros por persona. Locacion perfecta para ir a la playa.
