Cleanliness
7.6
Mixed: several guests said the hotel and rooms were very clean, but multiple reports of severe room moisture/condensation and damp floors reduced perceived cleanliness.
Service
8.6
Generally positive: multiple compliments for friendly, helpful front desk and staff (named Saniya, staff praised), though one report of overnight staff being disrespectful and inconsistent housekeeping.
Location
8.7
Positive: location repeatedly noted as good and a key positive in Spanish review.
Room Quality
5.2
Negative: significant issues reported — excessive humidity/condensation leaving floors and beds damp, poor water pressure, uncomfortable pillows/beds, and lack of in-room coffee maker.
Amenities
6.8
Mixed: pleasant pool and continental breakfast mentioned, but dehumidifier handling was inadequate (fills quickly) and some missing in-room amenities (no coffee maker).
Value for Money
6
Mixed-to-negative: some guests found price right, but strong complaints about high pet fee/deposit and poor room comfort lowered value perception.
Food and Beverage
6.6
Mediocre: breakfast described as 'ok' or continental; guests requested more variety (toast/bread rather than only bagels).
Overall Experience
7.3
Mixed overall: several guests highly satisfied and would return, while a few had unpleasant stays due to humidity, bed dampness, and low water pressure.

Pros:

Staff was great and helpful with the issues

Cons:

Well we get to the hotel temperature set on 62 degrees we change the temperature to 70 and then go down for our suitcases 15 minutes later we come back to our room and the floors and everything is covered in moisture and condensation. My wife and I used all the towels in the bathroom to try to dry the floors but no matter what we did the floors were constantly covered in moisture the bed waa damp also and the room smelled..it wasn't the staffs fault it's bad engineering...the humidity outside caused the moisture issues and there was no dehumidifier in the room to get rid of the humidity in the air ..we won't be staying there again and there was absolutely no water pressure in the shower it just trickled out ..it was not a pleasant stay ..the bed was damp from all the condensation and no matter what we did the floors remained wet

Precisa resolver a umidade no quarto.
Pros:

Ambiente moderno, novo. Piscina agradável e café continental bom.

Cons:

Havia uma umidade absurda no quarto, para diminui-la era necessário manter um desumidificador. O equipamento ficava cheio de água em 3 a 4 horas. Se o aparelho ficasse desligado, o piso ficava completamente molhado!! Nunca vi nada similar.
