Tal vez se podría ampliar el horario de la cena ya que es hasta las 22hs. y si uno quiere disfrutar los parques hasta el horario de cierre se queda sin la cena.

El hotel está bien, con buenas instalaciones y bien ubicado.
Estuvimos 3 días y no limpiaron la habitación ni una sola vez (ya estaba sucia cuando llegamos), solo entran y hacen la cama. La comida es buffet, de una calidad bajísima, casi todo es comida industrial y frituras.

El personal agradable, bastante cerca de tiendas y facil acceso a la playa.
La piscina es preciosa, parece una playa de arena blanca, es de las mejores que he visto y la hemos disfrutaso muchisimo.
Lo que mas creo necesario es una nevera con congelador pequeño en la habitacion, para poner agua fresca para llevar a la playa y poderla conservar fria en una nevera portatil.
Tambien hace falta un tendedor para secar bañadores y toallas en el balcon.

Para una escapada a Port aventura está genial, sin necesidad de coger el coche, igualmente para visitar la zona de playas. Teníamos media pensión y había gran variedad de comida y además muy buena. Las piscinas muy bien. Bastante recomendable.

El precio con las entradas de port aventura y el parque a 10 min en coche. La recepción y toda la planta baja es todo nuevo y moderno, instalaciones muy bonitas, pero las habitaciones es un quiero y no puedo
The mattresses were 2 together of 1.35, super spacious, but with very worn springs. The food could be greatly improved. The air conditioning does not allow you to choose the temperature, if you close the terrace door it works and if not, it doesn't. Logical to save costs but when we went it was at 22 degrees and if we left it on in the afternoon and evening, we froze, and if we turned it off we were dying of heat. And the terrace, although very nice, the air conditioning unit is on the terrace floor which means that if you want the room to cool down while you are on the terrace, the unit is blowing all the heat on you and it is unbearable when it was already very hot on the days we went.
Los colchones 2nos tocaron 2 juntos de 1,35, super espaciosas, pero de muelles ya muy usados. La comida muy muy mejorable. El aire acondicionado no se puede elegir la temperatura, si cierras la puerta de la terraza funciona y si no, no. Lógico para ahorrar gasto pero cuando fuimos estaba a 22 grados y si lo dejábamos encendido por la tarde noche, nos congelábamos, y si lo apagabamos nos moriamos de calor. Y la terraza, aunque está muy bien, pmla máquina del aire está en el suelo de la propia terraza lo que hace que si quieres que se enfríe la habitación mientras estas en la terraza, la máquina te está echando todo el calor encima y es inaguantable cuando ya de por si hacía mucho calor los días que fuimos

El personal es muy atento, las chicas de la limpieza un encanto, las de recepción y sobretodo la metre de comedor Namia es muy simpática y atenta.
I think that although the rooms are very nice, they lack a thin curtain in addition to the blackout one to be able to open the windows well and let the air flow, and there should be toilet brushes in the bathrooms. The buffet is of good quality but a bit limited, and on the grill there should always be both meat and fish in each service, since there is only fish for lunch and meat for dinner.
Creo que aunque las habitaciones estan muy bien, les falta una cortina fina aparte de la opaca para poder abrir bien las ventanas y que corra el aire y escobillas en los baños. El buffet es de buena calidad pero justito y en la plancha deberia haber siempre una carne y un pescado en cada servicio, ya que solo hay pescado al mediodía y carne a la noche.

Para ser un hotel 3 * me ha sorprendido para bien las zonas comunes como las piscinas, el bar y la entrada que da muy buena sensación
The dining room was horrible, too small for the amount of people staying at the hotel and also the food was scarce and lacked variety, I didn't see any vegetables any day. The cleanliness of the rooms could be improved (one day our room wasn't cleaned) The mattresses couldn't be more uncomfortable, we woke up with pain all over our bodies and we didn't use the wardrobe because of the strong smell of old wood. There is no fridge in the rooms (there is one available for a fee, I find this to be an excessive service) this is essential in summer to have cold water. We will not repeat.
El comedor horrible, pequeño para la cantidad de gente alojada en el hotel y ademas la comida escasa y poca variedad, no vi verdura en ningún día. La limpieza de las habitaciones mejorable ( un día no nos ha limpiado la habitación) Los colchones no podrían estar mas incómodos, nos despertamos con dolor de todo el cuerpo y el armario no lo hemos usado por el olor tan fuerte de madera vieja. Nevera, no hay en las habitaciones ( la hay de pago, me parece un servicio exagerado) esto es básico en verano para tener agua fria No repetiremos.

Buena ubicación, cerca de la playa, de la zona comercial y de Port Aventura
We have had the feeling of a lack of staff, especially in the restaurant, which led to employees having bad attitudes and worse manners. Also, they took a long time to replenish the food and when it came to ice cream, it was truly difficult to get a strawberry one (they ran out quickly) and only the mojito ones were left. The entertainment was non-existent. I believe with a couple of details, it would be a great hotel.
Hemos tenido la sensación de falta de personal sobre todo en el comedor, lo que conllevaba a que los empleados tuvieran malas caras y peores modos. Asimismo, tardaban en reponer la comida y, en cuestión de helados era verdaderamente difícil coger uno de fresa (se terminaban enseguida) solo quedaban los de mojito
La animación inexistente.
Creo que con un par de detalles, sería un hotel estupendo.

La ubicación no está mal, el hotel está reformado en las zonas comunes.
It would be nice if the rooms were renovated like what appears in the hotel pictures. Ours was small, old, and quite deteriorated, at first glance you could see a mattress with a very marked shape... all the bedspreads were full of old stains... we asked to change assuming an economic increase, and they didn't have availability... they changed us to another one that was the same but at least didn't have such bad mattresses. Also, the rooms are very small. The cleaning is very quick... they didn't mop the floor any day during the 5 nights we stayed. I guess that's what they can manage.
Estaría bien que las habitaciones estuvieran reformadas como lo que aparece en las imágenes del hotel. La nuestra era pequeña, antigua y bastante deteriorada, a simple vista ya se veía un colchón con una forma muy marcada...las colchas todas repletas de encanchones antiguas...pedimos cambiar asumiendo el incremento económico y no tenían disponibilidad...nos cambiaron a otra igual pero que al menos no tenía los colchones tan mal. Además son habitaciones muy pequeñas.
La limpieza es muy rápida...no se pasó la mopa ningún día en las 5 noches q estuvimos. Imagino q es a lo q llegan.

El bufet libre sin duda la comida, i la zona de piscina.
There was no soundproofing in the room, we heard a lot of noise. We found long hairs on one of the towels, the cleaning staff entered the room without knocking, and I was naked... in short, I wouldn't go back and the staff was very unfriendly, not providing explanations about the services they offer. Furthermore, in the room, there was no refrigerator, and the air conditioning could not be adjusted, so you either had heat or cold.
No hay insonorización en la habitación, se escucharon muchos ruidos. Nos encontramos con pelos largos en una de las toallas, las de la limpieza entraron en la habitación sin picar y yo estaba desnuda.. en fin no volveria y el personal muy seco, sin dar explicaciones de los servicios que ofrecen, luego en la habitación no disponia desnuda nevera y el aire acondicionado no se podia regular o tenias calor o frio.

Después de 7 años sin poder irnos de vacaciones, tras ahorrar durante mucho tiempo, superar la pandemia y el nacimiento de nuestro hijo, finalmente conseguimos unos días para descansar y relajarnos. Habíamos elegido este hotel porque parecía bonito, reformado y acogedor, y teníamos mucha ilusión.
Desde el primer momento esa ilusión se fue apagando. Al llegar, nos dijeron: “ah no, vosotros sois del otro edificio, hay dos edificios el vuestro es el del fondo, tenéis que ir hasta el final del pasillo, cruzar toda la piscina y allí está la recepción”. Con maletas y silleta del niño, ese fue nuestro primer mal rato, antes de empezar siquiera las vacaciones.
Al abrir la habitación, la tristeza fue aún mayor. Una bola de pelos por el suelo, polvo en todas partes, luces y armarios sin limpiar, y el inodoro manchas amarillas . Avisamos a recepción y solo pasaron la mopa, dejando marcas visibles y zonas sin limpiar. Esa primera imagen nos hizo sentir decepcionados y tristes, viendo cómo se esfumaba nuestra ilusión.
Durante los días siguientes, la situación continuó arruinando lo que debía ser un tiempo de descanso:
El único ascensor del edificio siempre estaba lleno o retrasado, y subir o bajar con el carrito del niño fue una lucha constante (el edificio principal tiene 3 ascensores)
Los desayunos para intolerancia al gluten eran mínimos: 2-3 rebanadas de pan, y en algún momento un trozo de bizcocho o galletas, las veces que intenté pedir algo más la respuesta fue “eso es para niños” o “se ofrece lo que hay, no siempre hay algo dulce”. En comidas y cenas no había alternativas expuestas y nadie explicó cómo pedir algo aparte.
El trato del personal fue frío e irregular; ni siquiera nos desearon un buen viaje al salir.
Presenciamos una discusión entre empleados con lenguaje obsceno en la piscina "comeme la po...; el hotel dijo que era “una conversación interna”, pero quienes estábamos cerca la escuchamos claramente y el socorrista tuvo que hacerles un gesto para que pararas de discutir.
Nos ofrecieron cambiar de habitación a la quinta planta; apenas estaba mejor y subir CINCO pisos (Por la deficiencia del ascensor) con la silleta era muy incómodo, así que decidimos quedarnos en la original.
Estos problemas hicieron que lo que debía ser un tiempo de relax y alegría se convirtiera en estrés y tristeza. Cada detalle, desde la primera frase en la recepción hasta la primera imagen de la habitación, apagó nuestra ilusión. Solo queríamos unos días de descanso y ternura familiar, y en cambio nos encontramos con decepción tras decepción.
El hotel respondió que los servicios prestados han sido correctos y que mi habitación era "categoría superior" a la contratada.
Cleaning, changing cabinets, furniture, doors.
Limpieza, cambiar armarios, muebles, puertas.
