Really great place, and you have to be a bit patient because there's no one around.the rice dinner was spectacular. Everything is close.
Excellent
Es un hotel de "contingencia" venido a menos. Con un intento de mejora lejos de cumplir las espectativas de un cliente medio
The accommodation STINKS. Smells like tobacco, because the receptionist smokes right by the door. Industrial breakfast and except for the coffee, nothing worth mentioning. I confess that when I read the reviews of the "SPA" I thought people were exaggerating when they said that HEALTH should go there but after being in there for 5 minutes I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I WAS SEEING. Either he is the Mayor's nephew and Health turns a blind eye or they should close it down.... it would do a great favor to the hotel's image itself. Non-existent SPA, unusable pool, smell of tobacco and industrial breakfast...
El alojamiento APESTA. Apesta a tabaco, porque el recepcionista funa junto a la puerta. Desayuno industrial y salvo el café, el resto nada ue destacar. Confieso que cuando lei las reseñas del "SPA" pensé que la gente exageraba cuando decía que SANIDAD debería ir allí pero después de entrar 5 minutos NO DABA CRÉDITO A LO QUE ESTABA VIENDO. O es el sobrino del Alcalde y Sanidad hace la "vista gorda" o deberían clausurarlo....le haría un gran favor a la imagen del hotel en sí mismo. SPA inexistente, piscina inutibilizable, olor a tabaco y desayuno industrial...

Es un hotel que tiene muchas posibilidades,pero lo tienen descuidado,sobre todo el spa y la recepción.
We were a married couple, and they gave us a bunk bed, which was very uncomfortable because we were childless.
Nosotros fuimos matrimonio,y nos pusieron una cama con litera,que fuimos sin hijos,muy incómoda.

Asia y sus hijos, supermajos. La ubicación...perfecta, Las verdad que por ellos repetiria. A ellos les doy un +10.
The spa they have is really worth little, due to its size and cleanliness. Breakfast could be improved even though it's not necessary to leave the cafeteria rolling, I find it poor. The rooms are quite good for the price. I give it a 7 out of 10.
El spa que tienen realmente vale poco, por sus dimensiones y por su limpieza. El desayuno se podría mejorar aunque tampoco sea necesario salir de la cafetería rodando, lo veo pobre. Las habitaciones están bastante bien por el precio que tiene. Le doy un 7 sobre 10.

Playa de Berria fantástica y cercanía a Santoña.
I think breakfast time should be moved up (it currently starts at 9:00) and it should be improved.
Creo que se debe adelantar el horario del desayuno (empieza a la 9:00) y deberían mejorarlo.

Lack of cleanliness, lack of information for the rooms, hairdryer not working, burnt switches, windows couldn't even be opened. The spa is falling apart.
Lack of hygiene and poor food pbooking where breakfast is served.
The pool is green.
The hotel is a disaster.
Falta de limpieza , falta de información para las habitación, secador no funcionaba, interruptor quemados, no se podían ni abrir las ventanas. El spa se cae a trozos.
Donde se desayuna falta de higiene y mala conservación de alimentos.
La piscina verde.
Un fiasco el hotel
