Zwiedzanie Andaluzji
Pros:

Obiekt położony blisko plaży i starego miasta. Klimatycznie urządzone miejsce na posiłek na świeżym powietrzu. Z 5 piętra boczny widok na morze i góry. Deska do prasowania i żelazko w pokoju. I oczywiście bardzo miły personel

Cons:

Parking tylko dla małych samochodów. Śniadania bardzo dobre ale monotonne

Gute Lage, sauber, freundliches Personal, leckeres Frühstück
Pros:

+ sehr gute zentrale Lage
+ sehr freundliches Personal
+ gutes leckeres Frühstücksbuffet mit frischen Speisen
+ Tiefgaragenstellplatz
+ Zimmergröße
+ Balkon
+ gute Zimmerausstattung
+ klimatisierte Zimmer

Cons:

- die Zimmerreinigung erfolgt täglich und ist ok, könnte aber etwas gründlicher sein, vielleicht wäre ein Staubsauger besser geeignet als feuchtes wischen

- trotz der Lage etwas abseits der Strandpromenade ist es am Wochenende etwas lauter

- die Wände sind nur mittelmäßig gedämmt, Geräusche aus den Nachbarzimmern sind teilweise zu hören

- die zum Hotel gehörende Tiefgarage ist sehr eng und nur für Kleinwagen geeignet

- kleiner Wermutstropfen ist die in grellen weiß gehaltene Beleuchtung der Zimmer, beim nächsten Wechsel der Leuchtmittel sollte man etwas wärmere Farben wählen

Cumple pero podría mejorar
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

Instalaciones antiguas, la ducha no salía bien, estaba el desagüe salido y por el diseño del cubículo el agua se salía para todos lados
