8.6 Pedro Travelled with family July 2025 The location, the staff attention, and the food.
La ubicación, la atención del personal y la comida.
The site's antiquity, although some things had been renovated, still has a lot to be reformed, especially main areas. And there is little activity inside. There is a lack of activities in the pool or a livelier party atmosphere in the cafeteria at night. The coffee from the machine is terrible.
La antigüedad del sitio aunque había cosas reformadas aun queda mucho por reformar, sobre todo zonas comunes. Y la poca actividad dentro. Falta actividades en la piscina o más ambiente de fiesta en la cafetería por la noche. El café de la máquina malísimo.

8.6 Sandrine Travelled with family July 2025 The location, close to the beach and shops. The cleanliness of the rooms and bathroom. The friendliness of the staff. The possibility of having a car park lot. Buffet breakfast.
L’emplacement, proche de la plage et des boutiques ,La propreté des chambres et de la salle de bain L amabilité du personnel La possibilité d avoir un parking . Petit déjeuner buffet
Just a few remarks Although the breakfast is already good, a bit of dairy products like yogurts or flan would be a plus and also vary the fruits because they are few and always the same. On the other hand, the fruit juice is not good, too chemical, too sweet, which is a real shame.
Juste quelques remarques Bien que le petit déjeuner soit déjà bien ,un peu de produit laitier comme les yahourts ou flan serait un plus et varié les fruits aussi car peu nombreux et toujours les mêmes. Par contre jus de fruits pas bon, trop chimique trop sucré ça c est vraiment dommage.

9.1 Vanessa Travelled with family July 2025 In general, the hotel is fine, you can tell it's been around for some years, but they have renovated the rooms and some main areas. The food is good and the staff is very friendly and helpful.
En general el hotel está bien, se nota que tiene unos años, pero han renovado las habitaciones y algunas zonas comunes. La comida está rica y el personal es muy simpático y prestativo
They lack a fridge and hairdryer in the rooms and it wouldn't be bad to have some entertainment at night.
Les falta una nevera y secador de pelo en las habitaciones y no estaria mal tener algo de animación por la noche.

8.6 Jose Luis Travelled with couple July 2025
El hotel, la ubicación, comida y el personal son muy agradables.
Dos problemas fáciles de solucionar y por los que yo lamentablemente NO VOLVERÍA pues, yo voy a descansar. 1- Ruido de discoteca con la juventud en la calle pegando gritos hasta la hora de cierre) que inevitablemente obliga a cerrar el balcón y poner el aire acondicionado. 2- El aire acondicionado insuficiencia de frío, (lo dijimos dos veces en recepción y nos dijeron ¡como! había que poner el termostato ambiente Siemens de la habitación (muy raro) y que, mantenimiento había ido comprobando que salía a 22 grados), evidentemente que en los difusores salga esa temperatura indica anomalías, yo conozco un poquito el tema climatización.

6.9 Maria De Los Ángeles Travelled with family July 2025 The hotel has an unbeatable location, super close to the beach and with free car park nearby. The best thing about the hotel was the black guy, head waiter, who is charming and attentive to everything. However, Antonio, who also held the same position, was more busy flirting with the female customers.
El hotel tiene una ubicación inmejorable, super cerca de la playa y aparcamiento gratuito cercano. Lo mejor del hotel fue el chico negrito, jefe de sala, que es encantador y atento para cualquier cosa. Sin embargo, Antonio, que también ejercía el mismo puesto, estaba más ocupado en ligar con las clientas.
The air conditioning was not working as well as it should, it was very hot in the room. The hotel does not have any entertainment, there was absolutely nothing all week. A fridge in the room is very necessary.
El aire acondicionado no funcionaba todo lo bien que debería, hacia mucho calor en la habitación. No dispone el hotel de animación, en toda la semana no hubo absolutamente nada. Muy necesaria una nevera en la habitación.
