Unikt, spennende interiør på hotellet, men knøttlite rom og varierende service.
Pros:

Fin beliggenhet. Unikt interiør med mye spennende å se på.

Cons:

Vi ble anbefalt å spise ute, mens det viste seg at hotellet hadde er super restaurant der det var fullt hus da vi kom tilbake. Det var skikkelig nedtur! Vi fikk ikke rommet jeg trodde jeg hadde booket…
Badet var ikke helt rent.

Pros:

Nice litte, fancy old-style hotel. Very clean. Phantastic breakfast, beautiful pool area with view on the mediterranean. Not far away from Balcon de Europa.

Cons:

A pity the pool closes already at 6:30 pm, we would have liked to use it after arrival in the evening.

Pros:

Very good location with friendly staff

Cons:

Pictures look a little nicer than real life, safety deposit box wasn’t securely fastened to wall and balcony door didn’t lock properly so kept valuables on me at all times when not in hotel
