Hemos estado 9 personas en este hotel fin de semana, por cierto un hotel grandísimo, la chicas de recepción un encanto y muy atentas en todo momento, las habitaciones bien y limpias el aire acondicionado de maravilla, los colchones y las almohadas si que se tendrían que cambiar, pero hemos dormido bien, el servicio del comedor muy atentos reponiendo bandejas de comida cuando se acababan y retirando los platos de la mesas, la comida está muy buena y hay variedad sobre todo en las ensaladas y en los postres, destacar que no sirven carne de cerdo pero no se ha notado nada porque la comida estaba buena en todo lo que elaboraban, hay una fuente de agua fría en el comedor donde puedes coger agua y llenarte una botellita, mucho personal en el comedor que hacía que fuera todo agradable, las piscinas de fuera muy limpias y muy bien, la de dentro olía un poco a moho la verdad, el agua no está caliente y se ve un poco turbia, van muchisim@s ñiñ@s extranjer@s a jugar torneos de deporte pero bien, hay servicio de dejar la maleta cuando dejas el hotel a las 10:15 y te puedes quedar en la piscina y ducharte en los vestuarios del gimnasio que es gratis, pista de tenis 10€ la hora , secador 5€ y el mando de la tele 5€ de depósito que luego cuando te vas te lo devuelven, y recalcar sobre todo que en este hotel no sirven alcohol, está a 150 metros de la playa, hay muchas tiendas, restaurantes y un super mercado al lado. No entiendo la gente que hace malísimas reseñas aveces de este hotel porque calidad precio al ser tres estrellas está súper bien, no querrán que le sirvan por el precio que pagan como uno de 5 estrellas, creo que hay mucho racismo todavía. Yo si lo recomiendo.
change the pool hammocks and umbrellas that have been well used and put some small tables to place the things we carry on top of them and better arrange the indoor pool for its use.
cambiar las hamacas de la piscina y las sombrillas que ya tienen su trote y poner algunas mesitas para poner las cosas que llevamos encima de ellas y la piscina de interior acomodarla mejor para su uso.

Very good
No puedo decir nada bueno...
The hotel in general needs a renovation urgently!! The food is very basic and minimal, the rooms are horrible, the staff is quite unfriendly and some leave a lot to be desired... The pool lifeguard was more focused on her phone than on the pool... And on top of that, a beach hotel entering high season has no entertainment, NOTHING!!! zero entertainment, not even for children or anything!! We certainly wouldn't return even if they gave it to us for free!!
El hotel en general, necesita una reforma pero a gritos!! La comida muy muy básica y justa, las habitaciones, horribles, los trabajadores bastante secos y algunos, dejaban mucho que desear... La socorrista de la piscina estaba más pendiente del móvil que de la piscina... Y encima, un hotel de playa, entrando en temporada alta, no tiene animación, NADA!!! cero animación, ni para niños ni nada!! Desde luego que nosotros no volveríamos ni aunque nos lo regalarán!!

Ubicado cerca de la playa y que tiene piscina
A hotel that would have been very nice in its day, but years have passed and if nothing has been done, it has become obsolete. Very basic and limited variety of food. Very old elevators, heavily damaged room, in the bathroom they had replaced the bathtub with a shower tray, but everything else was very old and there was nowhere to hang the towels, so you either left them on the floor or on top of the sink. Basic and very neglected facilities. Walls are very thin and you can hear everything from the other rooms.
Un hotel que en su día estaría muy bien, pero que han pasado los años y si no se ha hecho nada, pues a quedado obsoleto. La comida muy básica y de poca variedad. Ascensores muy viejos, habitación muy estropeada, en el lavabo habían cambiado la bañera por plato de ducha pero todo lo demás era muy antiguo y no había ni para colgar las toallas o la dejabas en el suelo o encina de la pica. Las instalaciones básicas y muy descuidadas.Las paredes muy finas y se oye todo lo de las demás habitaciones.

Persona muy correcto, tranquilidad
The hotel is old, it needs a major renovation. When I entered the room, it smelled musty, there were many flies. You have to pay €5 for the TV remote, which they refund later. The food was good but with very little variety. The cleanliness can be improved. Location is far from the center. It seemed like a ghost hotel. We were without electricity for a little while. The TV stopped working at night. I will not come back.
El hotel esta viejo, necesita una gran reforma. La habitación cuando entre olía humedad, habían muchas moscas.
Hay pagar 5€ por mando tv que te duelven luego, la comida estaba buena pero muy poca variedad. La limpieza puede mejorar. Ubicación alejada centro. Parecía un hotel fantasma. Nos quedamos sin un luz un poquito rato. La tv dejó de funcionar noche. No volveré

La comida bastante mal.
Pedimos cambiar una cena por un picnic de comida y nos pusieron una botella de agua de 33cl, una naranja, una pera, una manzana y dos medios sándwich, literalmente uno con media loncha de mortadela y el otro con media loncha de queso.
Una vergüenza y una tomadura de pelo.
