The hotel is run very efficiently. The staff is helpful and friendly. The breakfast is excellent. Our room (junior suite) was huge. We had a great balcony/terrace, and great view towards the sea. Parking in a safe and sufficiently large parking lot belonging to the hotel was a big plus. Would definitely stay there again.

Under floor heating was very much appreciated as we enter the cooler period (visit December). Comfortable beds, fluffy towels, substantial buffet breakfast, off street parking all helped the stay. Polite friendly staff all seemed interested in your well being. Ideally located for coastal walks. Room was poorly lit, very subdued lighting.

This is NOT a 4 sater hotel, expect a 3 star hotel with a 4 star location. I will add that the front desk is incredibly rude and inconsiderate. My wife and I have traveld the world and a lot in Europe. We have found a common thread in Catalonia, not just at this property. People here a generally rude and aggresive. People in the service industries who make their living from the tourist trade, seem very inconvenienced by it all and bothered that you exist. Rude treatement from a front desk clerk in this part of the world is a common occurance, so don't let it get to you. Costa Brava is beautiful beyond compare, just be prepared for the other part....

The 1st night the fire alarm went off at 3am for no apparent reason, the 2nd night there was a power cut. The hotel is looking very tired and a number alteration have Ben done on the cheap. The WiFi is very inconsistent, the food was very basic.All in all the is better for the money paid locally.
