Lo que más destacó es su ubicación a la playa, al puerto, a restaurantes. La tranquilidad y la limpieza en las habitaciones.
The dinner schedule from 18:30 to 21:30 h and before that time and remove a part of the buffet. The food was fair and lacked variety. The views from the room overlooked a construction site which fortunately was a weekend and they were not working. The only activity they offer is a dj at night.
Pésimo el horario de la cena de 18:30 a 21:30 h y antes de esa hora ya quitan una parte del bufet. La comida justa y poca variedad. Las vistas de la habitación daban a una obra que por suerte era fin de semana y no trabajaban. Lo único que ofrecen de actividades es un dj por las noches.
