El buffet y la buena ubicación del hotel, cerquita de la playa
"Rooms need to be reviewed regarding plumbing and sanitary issues.
The toilet was leaking, the shower faucet was very hard to switch from the faucet to the showerhead... and the same in the pool, the showers were wasting a lot of water... a lot of water being wasted.
Lack of sun loungers, as one pool was closed, many people were in the slide pool and there were few sun loungers."
Falta darle un repaso a las habitaciones tema grifería y sanitarias.
El WC perdía agua,el grifo de la ducha durísimo para pasar del grifo a la alcachofa....y en la piscina igual,las duchas cayendo bastante agua....mucha agua desperdiciada.
Falta de tumbonas,al estar una piscina cerrada pues mucha gente en la piscina del tobogán y pocas tumbonas.

Las habitaciones grandes y las camas cómodas, de limpieza estaba todo correcto. Personal simpático y agradable
The buffet food could be improved for a 4-star hotel, most of the meats were undercooked and overall a bit bland and repetitive, except for Saturday night which was much better, the rest was weak.
La comida del buffet sería mejorable para un 4 estrellas la mayoría de carnes crudas y en general un poco soso y repetitivo, excepto el sábado noche que si que estuvo mucho mejor el resto flojito

Buenas estube desde el 5 de junio hasta el 9. Nos dieron una habitación con muy buenas vistas y muy grande . Después nos cambiaron por que me pasó un atercado con los ascensores y decidimos que nos canbiaran de planta para que no pasara más, la habitación muy bien los malo las vistas que ya no eran a la piscina... el personal maravilloso, las piscinas muy limpias, las comidas variadas, lo últimos días había un poco de cola para el restaurante, por lo demás todo muy bien.
I would change the elevators. We stayed 10 minutes inside one. I had a really hard time because I am pregnant and also was with my 3-year-old son.... that ruins everything good since I took everything that was left of the holiday to try to forget it.
Cambiaría los ascensores. Nos quedamos 10 minutos dentro de uno. Lo pasé muy mal ya que estoy embarazada y también iva con mi hijo de 3 años.... eso se carga todo lo bueno ya que me lleve todo lo que quedaba del viaje intentarlo olvidarlo.

Los animadores es lo mejor que hay en el hotel, si volviéramos a repetir el año que viene sería por los 3 animadores.
Los camareros también han sido muy amables.
On the first afternoon, we noticed that the toilet cistern made a loud noise every 30 seconds and we mentioned it at the reception. They said they would come to fix it, but none of the 3 days were we able to sleep well.
Also, the toilet lid was broken on one side, and one of my daughters got her finger caught when she sat down, which I also reported at the reception and it was not fixed.
The bathtub didn't drain well, and when we filled it for the first time, hair came out of the drain.
On the 2nd day, our room was not cleaned (according to the cleaner because there was a "do not disturb" sign on the door). It is true that my 2-year-old daughter was falling asleep from 4:00 pm to 5:30 pm. And at night, we had to go to reception for towels because we didn't have clean ones.
The next day, our room was cleaned, but they did not refill the shampoo or shower gel, so we had to go to reception to get them, and they gave us a 15ml bottle for 2 girls and 1 woman with long hair.
Also, when they cleaned our room, they left the almost empty toilet paper roll and a new one (I think it's too little for 4 people, 2 girls, and 2 adults). It was barely enough.
In the main areas:
In the bathroom next to the buffet, there was never any soap in the disabled toilet or at the entrance, and there was no trash can either. However, there was soap in the disabled toilet, and there was paper to dry hands.
In the other reception toilet, there was never any hand soap.
In the pool toilet, there was no soap, and to close the door with the latch, we had to pull the door up because the latch was not centered.
At the pool, I saw that several customers had their towels removed because there were not enough sunbeds for everyone.
At the bar, on the first day, we asked if ice creams were included in the all-inclusive package, and they said yes, but only the strawberry and cream cone or the vanilla and chocolate one. On Saturday, we found out that there were also strawberry iron ones that the girls liked more. Of the cones, on Friday, they gave us 2 that were thawed, and on Friday, I asked for another one that had ice crystals (a sign of cold chain loss).
En la primera tarde detectamos que la cisterna del WC cada 30 segundos hacia un ruido fuerte y lo comentamos en recepción, nos dijeron que se pasarían, ninguno de los 3 días hemos podido dormir bien.
También la tapadera del WC estaba de un lado rota y en una de las veces que se sentó una de mis niñas se pilló el dedo, lo cual también lo comunique en recepción y no se reparo.
La bañera no tragaba bien y al llenarla la primera vez salieron pelos del desagüe de esta.
En el 2 día no nos limpiaron la habitación (según la limpiadora por qué cuando le tocaba tenía un cartel de no molestar) es verdad que mi niña pequeña de 2 años se estaba dormida de 16:00 a 17:30. Y por la noche tuvimos que llegar a recepción a por toallas por qué no disponíamos de toallas limpias.
Al otro día nos realizaron la habitación pero no nos rellenaron ni el champú ni el gel y nos tuvimos que pasar por recepción a por gel y champú y nos dieron un bote de 15ml para 2 niñas y 1 mujer con el pelo largo.
Y también cuando nos realizaron la habitación nos dejaron el royo de papel que estaba casi vacío y uno nuevo (veo muy poca cantidad para 4 personas 2 niñas y 2 adultos.) nos llegó justo.
El las zonas comunes:
En el cuarto de baño que hay juntos al buffet no había nunca jabón ni en el de minusválido ni en la entrada y tampoco hay papelera, eso sí en el de minusválido si hay y luego para secarse la mano hay papel.
En el otros WC de recepción no había nunca jabón de manos.
En el WC de piscina no había jabón y para cerrar la puerta con pestillo teníamos que tirar de la puerta hacia arriba por qué el pestillo no estaba centrado.
En la piscina vi que a varios clientes le retiraron las toallas por qué no había tumbonas suficiente para todos.
En la barra del bar el primer día preguntamos que si entraban helados en el todo incluido y nos dijo que si pero solo el cucurucho de fresa y nata o el de vainilla y chocolate, el sábado nos enteramos que también entraban unos de hierro de fresa que le gustaban más a las niñas.
De los cucuruchos el viernes nos dieron 2 que estaban descongelados y el viernes pedí otro y tenía como cristalitos de hielo (síntoma de la perdida de la cadena del frío)
