1 Diego June 2025 Fatal food. They offered me water OR wine on the first day, we chose wine thinking it was included in the buffet, and we left more than my bottle without drinking, and they charged me 18€ without telling me that I had to pay for the drink... they ripped me off.
Camida Fatal. Me ofrecieron Agua O vino el primer día, elegimos vino pensando que entraba en el bufet, y dejamos más de mi botella sin tomar, y me han cobrado 18€ sin avisarme que la bebida tenía que pagarla… me han estafado
Especially the buffet and room service.
Sobre todo el bufet y el servicio de habitaciones

2 Beatriz Travelled with family June 2025 Not recommended at all! The room was very dirty, they changed us to another one that was a little better, but also dirty and the air conditioning every 3 minutes made a tremendous noise. I told the manager and no one came by. The buffet, lousy ... little variety and scarce. The coffee machine was out of order at breakfast. Unfriendly staff. Old facilities. This is not a 4 star hotel.
Para nada recomendado!! La habitacion estaba muy sucia, nos cambiaron a otra que estaba algo mejor, pero sucia también y el aire acondicionado cada 3 minutos hacia un ruido tremendo. Se lo dije al encargado y por allí no pasó nadie. El bufet, pésimo...poquisima variedad y escaso. Maquina del cafe averiada en el desayuno. El personal poco simpático. Instalaciones viejas. Eso no es un hotel de 4 estrellas.
Must improve in everything!
Debe mejorar en todo!!

6.3 Francisco Javier Travelled with couple June 2025 4 * hotel, but in reality, after the stay, I give it 3* below, a hotel that has been reopened under new management.
Hotel de 4 *, pero en realidad, después de la estancia le doy 3* bajo, hotel que ha sido reabierto por otra dirección.
Rooms are cleaned and arranged every 2 days at any time. Very limited food options, few dishes to choose from, they don't have their own kitchen, the food is brought from elsewhere and when it runs out, a different dish is replenished, always asking the staff controlling the entrance how many are left to enter. At lunch and dinner, there is no evening entertainment, just a speaker with music. And more things, but this is the most important to say.
Habitaciones la limpian y arreglan cada 2 días y al cualquier hora. Comida muy baja y pocos platos a elegir, no tiene cocina propia la traen de otro lugar y cuando se acaba, reponen otro plato distinto y siempre preguntando al personal que controla la entrada de cuántos quedan para entrar, en almuerzo y cena, diversión por la noche ninguna, solo un bafle con Pen con música diversa. Y más cosas, pero es lo más importante a decir.

3 María May 2025 The worst part of this trip was the hotel. It's a four-star hotel, but it's not even two. The buffet dinners were terrible, with little variety and limited quantity, and the waiters were unhelpful. The room was cleaned every other day, and I think for a four-star hotel it should be daily. The hotel's facilities and exterior are very outdated.
Lo peor de este viaje ha sido el Hotel, es de 4 estrellas y no llega ni a dos. Las cenas buffet eran pésimas, poca variedad y poca cantidad y los camareros poco serviciales. La limpieza de la habitación era cada dos dias y creo que para ser de cuatro estrellas debería ser a diario. Las instalaciones y fachada del hotel están muy anticuadas.
I would improve everything I mentioned above.
Mejoraría todo lo que he mencionado arriba.
