Hotel de playa
Pros:

La ubicación extraordinaria y el personal muy amable. El parking del hotel no sirve para coches grandes. Pero hay un parking público a la espalda. La cama muy cómoda

Cons:

La piscina y zona de hamacas muy pequeña. Diría que para estar cómodamente unas 10 personas y el aire acondicionado de la habitación muy ruidoso

Ik ga hier nooit meer naartoe
Pros:

De airco in de kamer

Cons:

Nou de mensen zijn heel respectloos. Kijken je hele dag boos aan. Er is een lift die lijkt op een gevangenis. En het bed slaapt zo slecht dat ik er rugpijn van heb gekregen

War okay, muss aber nicht nochmals gebucht werden.
Pros:

Sehr schnell am Strand und in der Altstadt

Cons:

Der Pool war praktisch den ganzen Tag im Schatten.
Die Tiefgarage extrem eng (hatten eine Kia Stonic), auch die Ein-Ausfahrt ist mit einem grösseren Auto fast unmöglich.
In der Dusche fanden wir noch Haare von unseren Vorgängern, allgemein liess die Sauberkeit im Bad zu wünschen übrig.

Great holiday
Pros:

Location was perfect, within walking distance from everything.staff very friendly.Beside bakery/coffee shop &all amenities.

Cons:

Was strong smell of cigarettes in bedroom, however I'm sure if I asked to relocate to another room I would have been accommodated but I had unpacked & didn't want to move my stuff. I would return as location so good.
