Pros:

La zona, en primera línea de playa.
Limpieza.

Cons:

Teníamos una habitación abuhardillada, no ed que me molestara pero no ponía en la reserva que era así. Por otro lado cogimos alguna cosa del minibar, y nos pareció muy caro.

Hotel para desayunar bien pero anticuado y ruidoso
Pros:

El desayuno buffet buenísimo, tanto calidad como cantidad. El horario muy buen amplio. La ubicación genial, con vistas al sardinero. Y las camas súper cómodas

Cons:

Mucho ruido exterior, entre habitaciones se escucha todo. Tuvimos la mala suerte de tener al lado unos huéspedes muy ruidosos que a las 2 de la mañana escuchaban música a todo volumen y saltos en la habitación. El descanso no fue el esperado. También el baño estaba bastante anticuado y la zona del lavabo despegada de la pared.
Para ser un hotel de 4 estrellas había cosas que dejaban un poco que desear, deberían hacer un poco de inversión.

Un paraíso de mar y montaña
Pros:

El desayuno estuvo fantástico y muy acogedor, personal tanto del desayuno y la de la cafetería muy educada y siempre muy atenta con nosotros.

Cons:

Lo que no nos gustó fue el edredón de las camas, dan mucho calor, nos va mejor manta y colcha que si tienes calor retiras lo k quieras y si tienes frío te pones lo que quieras
