El personal muy agradable.
The hotel parking area is very dirty. A 5-star hotel shouldn't be like this... And they gave us a room on the third floor that had no coffee maker, no bathrobe, no ironing board, no iron... instead in others like that and paying the same... ..
Muy sucio la zona del aparcamiento del hotel. Un hotel de 5 estrellas no debería estar así.... Y nos dieron una habitación en la tercera planta que no tenía cafetera, ni albornoz, ni tabla de planchar, ni plancha.. en cambio en otras así y pagando lo mismo....

Todo bastante bien sin mas nos dejaron entrar en la habitación bastante antes de la hora
The dinners have little variety, COVID protocol with some non-existent clients without being told anything, they lack maps and more to go on excursions, nobody receives you or takes your bags or shows you a room. I think it is not a 5-star
Las cenas poca variedad protocolo COVID con algunos clientes inexistente sin que les dijeran nada carecen de mapas y de más para realizar excursiones nadie te recibe ni cogen maletas Ni te enseñan habitación creo que no es un 5 estrellas

Me a encantado la experiencia y el viaje, el hotel perfecto cerca de todo
I am very unhappy with the agency, I am looking for a bargain for not notifying us of some things. They told us that it was all-inclusive and the drinks at dinner were charged separately. Also, as soon as we arrive at the hotel, they tell us that we have to pay 12 euros for the tourist tax, nobody told us anything. I think that as an agency it should give notice of the fees that have to be paid because it was not one but two. From what I see in search of a bargain there are many complaints about this style. That they do not notify of some payments outside the trip or even that it is not managed well at all.
Estoy muy descontenta con la agencia busco un chollo por no avisarnos de algunas cosas. Nos dijeron que estaba todo incluido y las bebidas en la cenas nos las cobraron aparte. Además nada más llegar al hotel nos dicen que tenemos que pagar 12 euros por la tasa de turismo nadie nos dijo nada. Creo que como agencia debería dar aviso de las tasas que se tienen que pagar por que no fue una fueron dos. Por lo que veo en busca un chollo hay muchas quejas de este estilo. Que no avisan de algunos pagos fuera del viaje o incluso que no se gestiona bien del todo.

La habitación correcta, aunque con escasa iluminación.
Dryer without power. I don't know if the spa can be considered as such. They allow children to enter, which does not allow you to relax as expected in such a place. We coincided with a foreign event and the hotel was at their disposal. They moved freely around the hotel without a mask, having drinks in the elevators and disrespecting the other guests. For occasions of this type, they should close the hotel and exclusively house the people of the event, because they bother the rest of the guests who want to relax during their vacations.
Secador sin potencia. El spa no sé si se puede considerar como tal. Permiten la entrada de niños lo que no permite relajarse como se espera en un lugar así. Coincidimos con un evento de extranjeros y el hotel estaba a su disposición. Se movían libremente por el hotel sin mascarilla, tomando copas en los ascensores y faltando al respeto al resto de huéspedes. Para ocasiones de este tipo deberían cerrar el hotel y alojar en exclusiva a las personas del evento, porque molestan al resto de huéspedes que quieren relajarse durante sus vacaciones.

El personal ha sido muy agradable. El desayuno muy bueno.
We have been surprised by the attitude of the hotel, regarding the different treatment with certain guests who did not wear a mask. The response of the hotel employees when we told them about it was "we can't tell you anything" The room with a lack of maintenance, broken bathroom mirror, broken lamp... we were surprised by this chain.
Nos ha sorprendido la actitud del hotel, respecto al trato distinto con ciertos huéspedes que no usaban mascarilla. La respuesta de los empleados del hotel cuando se lo comentamos, fue "no podemos decirles nada" La habitación con falta de mantenimiento, espejo baño roto, lampara estropeada... nos ha sorprendido de esta cadena.

Poca cosa
I don't like being deceived with false advertising. Two nights and one access to the SPA. Both the hotel with you make misleading advertising because until you finish making the reservation you do not realize that only one access to the SPA enters. Of pity. I realized when I went down to the SPA and they wanted them to pay the second time. Three years ago I had been in that hotel using their web service and they gave me 2 accesses to the SPA. I will not return to the hotel or use your web service again. And then the room needs some renovations like the dining area, burnt carpet, burnt iron bedspread. The bathroom fan giving the tabarra all day. Faucets that did not close well. Some leak giving the can all night. A lot of luxury for the reception and in the room that I was lucky not to sleep a wink on both nights.
Que no me gusta que me engañen con publicidad engañosa. Dos noches y una solo acceso al SPA. Tanto el hotel con ustedes hacen publicidad engañosa porque hasta que no acabas de hacer la reserva no te das cuenta que solo entra un acceso al SPA. De pena. Yo me di cuenta cuando baje al SPA y querían que pagaran la segunda vez. Hacia tres años que había estado en ese hotel utilizando su servicio web y me dejaron 2 accesos al SPA. Ni volveré al hotel ni volveré a utilizar su servicio Web. Y luego la habitación necesita unas reformas como el el comer, moqueta quemada, colcha de la cama quemada de plancha. El ventilador del baño dando la tabarra todo el dia.Grifos que no cerraban bien. Alguna gotera dando la lata toda la noche. Mucho lujo por la recepción y en la habitación que me toco en suerte no pegue ojo en las dos noches.
