Pros:

La posizione e il rapporto qualità/prezzo

Cons:

Il letto matrimoniale era formato da due letti singoli e questo per una coppia è molta scomodo. Inoltre l'aria condizionata non funzionava correttamente perché l'aria che usciva era calda.

Necesita un buen lavado de cara y mejorar la calidad del restaurante
Pros:

Tiene parking al descubierto bastante grande y cómodo. Lo demás ha sido decepcionantes

Cons:

El restaurante, el desayuno bufet muy básico e insípido, sin a penas opciones saladas, si querías agua los vasos eran de plástico malo… Las cenas no eran bufet y tb muy regulares, carne y pescado muy seco, pasado, pasta cruda… un poco decepcionantes . La habitación grande pero cama incómoda, baño muy limitado, las toallas horribles y la ducha muy pequeña. En general instalaciones muy viejas, se nota q necesita una reforma integral para actualizarse y mejorar mucho las instalaciones. La limpieza bastante cuestionable.

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
Pros:

Disponibilità dello staff eccellente. Abbiamo avuto un problema di caldo la prima notte (bocchette d'aria poco efficienti con questo caldo) e ci hanno cambiato la stanza.
La struttura è un po' datata ma nel complesso il rapporto qualità/prezzo è ottimo.

Cons:

Climatizzazione poco efficiente, poca insonorizzazione.

A pleasant stay with friendly staff !
Pros:

Hotel Califfo had a good location, close to a couple of restaurants, just across the road, and about a 5-minute drive from the beach. We appreciated the large parking area, which was very convenient. The hotel itself was quiet and peaceful, and the Wi-Fi worked well throughout our stay.

Our room was clean and well maintained, and the housekeeping service was very good, with the room cleaned and looked after every day.

The staff were definitely one of the hotel’s biggest strengths. Everyone was very polite, friendly and helpful, and communication was easy, especially in English. When we reported an issue with the air conditioning in our room, the staff quickly sent someone to check and repair it and also offered us another room, which we really appreciated.

Cons:

There were several areas that could be improved. The hotel feels quite dated and would benefit from some refreshing and modernisation. The breakfast was rather repetitive, with a limited choice of food and very few vegetables and fresh fruits. The coffee machine broke down almost every day, which meant waiting for it to be repaired or ordering coffee from another bar. Considering the number of guests, having two coffee machines available would be a significant improvement.

The swimming pool also closed at 7:00 p.m. every day, which felt a little early, especially during the warmer evenings.

Goed, rustig verblijf met een fijn zwembad en goede prijs/kwaliteit verhouding.
Pros:

Vriendelijk, behulpzaam personeel, lekker uitgebreid ontbijtbuffet.
De kamer was ruim, alleen de douche was erg krap, terwijl de grootte van de badkamer prima was.

Cons:

We hadden geen balkon wat jammer was.
Er was niet veel ruimte voor onze koffers, maar dat kwam waarschijnlijk doordat we eten z'n drieën op 1 kamer waren.
