Nada
Dormimos la primera noche porque no encontramos otro lugar ese dia. El sitio tiene mucha falta de una reforma y una limpieza a fondo. El olor al entrar ya te dice las condicionen en las que esta. El desayuno es para no fiarse. El expendedor de zumo por la zona donde sale el zumo esta toda negra (moho).
Es muy barato si. Pero no vale la pena.

Las playas Santoña isla Noja.....
It is abandoned. Nobody attends to it. The entrance door is open all night with no key needed because it is open 24 hours a day without anyone controlling the reception. The breakfast was vomit-inducing. Absolutely disgusting overall. Rotten fruit, moldy bread, spoiled pastries, and expired yogurts.
Está abandonado. Nadie lo atiende. La puerta de entrar está abierta toda la noche no hay una clave para entrar ni nada porque está abierta 24 horas al día sin nadie que controle la recepción. El desayuno era de vomitar. Absolutamente repugnante todo. La fruta podrida y el pan lleno de moho y la bollería industrial estropeada y los yogures caducados

El lugar esta muy bien
As there were few guests, they came up with the excuse that the spa's heat pump was broken, and we should use it with cold water, in November. We booked this deal for the spa and spent the weekend without it. I will not book with Busco un deal again, because after complaining, their response was that the spa was a gift from the hotel and they didn't care about our discomfort.
Como había pocos huéspedes, se les ocurrió decir que la bomba de calor del spa estaba averiada, que lo usáramos con agua fría, en noviembre.
Cogimos este chollo por el spa y pasamos el finde sin el.
No volveré a contratar con busco un chollo, porque después de quejarnos, su repuesta ha sido que el spa era un regalo del hotel y que les daba igual nuestro malestar.

Nos dieron una habitación con dos camas juntas y dos literas. Muebles q estaban muy viejos, el baño con una puerta con cristales donde pierdes la intimidad.
El hotel estaba muy dejado, sucio, en la recepción solo vimos a alguien una vez de todas las q pasamos. El comedor ......tiene quejas de todo. El primer día movimos una silla a l lado pirq se movial al sentarte y al día siguiente seguí en el mismo sitio, botes vacías pero sucios los dos días, vamoslos mismos. Café marítimo, embutido seco de ponerlo di tras día.......deja mucho q desear y por supuesto nadie q te atienda.
La zona spa...tenían roto el termostato del motor q calienta el agua por lo q estaba fría, casualidad.
No entramos porq despues de ver lo demás, nos pareció mejor no ver más.
No aconsejo este hotel

Absolutamente no hay nada positivo que podamos decir, una pesadilla, una experiencia para olvidar. Nos encontramos con una posada que era un auténtico desastre en todos los sentidos. La habitación que nos dieron tenía extremadamente mucha humedad, no existe mantenimiento alguno por parte de nadie en ese edificio, el spa como tal no es ningún spa, es una bañera grande con agua templada,metida en un sótano oscuro sin ventilación y con una sauna que le faltaban la mitad de las maderas en el suelo. El olor según llegamos al hotel era insufrible. Los enchufes no tenían embellecedores, el cabecero estaba caído, no había luces ambiente de ningún tipo, había una luz de lectura rota y oxidada, el colchón era como una cama de ladrillos, no funcionó en ningún momento el aire acondicionado o calefacción, un desayuno de batalla.
Everything absolutely everything would be improvable. In the room, you couldn't breathe because of the humidity, we couldn't rest in the two days we stayed at the hotel, we decided to stay because we were far from home, we considered looking for another place to sleep but everything was fully booked on those dates. They charged us 20 euros for the terrace surcharge, and 4 euros for the bathrobe rental. I would not recommend it to anyone at all, it is by far the worst (hotel) we have stayed at in many years.
Todo absolutamente todo sería mejorable. En la habitación no se podía respirar de la humedad que había, no pudimos descansar en los dos días que permanecimos en el hotel, decidimos quedarnos porque estábamos lejos de casa, valoramos la opción de buscar otro sitio para dormir pero en esas fechas estaba todo ocupado. Nos cobraron 20 euros de suplemento por la terraza, y 4 euros por el alquiler del albornoz. No lo recomendaría a nadie en absoluto es el peor (hotel) con diferencia en el que hemos estado desde hace muchos años.
