Goood stay for short time
Pros:

Excellent location right on the beach and a busy promenade full of shops and restaurants. Breakfast is absolutely fabulous with so many options and variety of healthy choices.

Cons:

Beds could be firmer. The shower is open concept so the water leaks everywhere on floor creating health hazard. Had to keep towels on floor at all times to prevent slipping. Hotel looks a bit tired and outdated.

Vacaciones para repetir
Pros:

El desayuno, las instalaciones, la historia del Hotel, las vistas, el personal, la chica de la limpieza, las camareras, incluso los recepcionistas y el resto de clientes eran amabilidad pura

Cons:

El gimnasio le faltaba un poquito de desear, había muy pocas máquinas y algunos estaban un poco desgastadas y alguna que no valía ya, lo bueno que puedes correr con unas vistas increíbles al mar, en una máquina de cinta o de elíptica

goed voor een weekje, in maart. In het hoogseizoen/zomer vrees ik drukte, kinderen etc.
Pros:

klassiek groot hotel aan de Spaanse Costa. Oud hotel dat echter al volledig vernieuwd werd. Ligging aan de wandelpromenade / strand is het grootste voordeel

Cons:

maaltijden in buffetvorm. Een buffet is altijd een probleem om eten warm te houden, dit is geen exclusief probleem voor dit hotel. Vlees was echter uitgedroogd. Veel gerechten hadden een wat Spaanse inslag, niet altijd naar onze smaak.
Door de drukte in het restaurant had men vaak wachttijden aan de ingang. Heel vaak bestek of servies gehad dat slecht afgewassen was, dit punt moet men verbeteren.
Zoals op de foto's te zien is het zwembad relatief klein en het aantal ligbedden beperkt. In de zomer (niet in maart) heeft men echter ook de beschikking over het strand.
