Gezellig, fijn hotel waar helaas de airco niet werkte
Pros:

Leuk familiehotel met zwembad. Goede bedden, eigen parkeerterrein, goed ontbijt.

Cons:

Helaas werkte de airco niet in onze kamer/ op het deel van onze gang/ etage (we hadden meer kamers met hetzelfde probleem. Na verhuizing werkte de airco op die kamer wel. Helaas nadat de monteur het verholpen zou hebben gingen we terug naar onze oude kamer waar de airco het toch niet deed. Verder zijn er weinig goede restaurants in de buurt

Location was good. Hotel was a nice old hotel. Beds were hard and a/c did not work well so sleeping was difficult.
Pros:

Location and breakfast was good

Cons:

Very hard and uncomfortable beds. Pick charges like a charge to use the room safe. Loud repairs in the morning hours.

Pros:

El billar, el minigolf y la piscina son grandes alicientes, sobretodo si vas con niños

Cons:

Nuestra habitación daba a un muro con una carretera y a las maquinas de aire acondicionado, la tarjeta no funcionaba y tuvimos que llevar llave tradicional porque no fueron capaces de arreglarlo, la comida del restaurante era bastante mala, nos bebimos la botella de agua que ponen de cortesía y no la repusieron ningún día (y estuvimos una semana), el jacuzzi no funcionaba... son detalles importantes que se deben cuidar en un hotel de 4 estrellas con el precio que tiene.

Lovely views
Pros:

The hotel exceeded our expectations as sometimes these older hotels don't live up to the photos. Amazing views and different areas in the garden to relax or play games. Breakfast was very good and staff very friendly and attentive. The room was very comfortable and clean. It had a restaurant which had nice food and convenient if you wanted to have a few drinks by the pool and not drive at night.

Cons:

We mistakenly thought when we booked that a room with land view would be facing the mountains, however these were labelled sea views (even though I don't think you could see the sea from that angle). I think their descriptions can be a bit confusing.
