Hotel merecedor de más estrellas.
Pros:

Hotel superlimpio, habitaciones amplias, bien equipadas y silenciosas. Mi felicitación al servicio de limpieza. Hemos reservado una habitación con vistas al mar y era perfecta. El personal de 10, siempre con una sonrisa a la hora de atendernos. Hemos cenado una noche y el menú fue espectacular, muy sabroso y muy buena relación calidad/ precio. El desayuno más que correcto, lo único negativo para mi, el café, pero carece de importancia. Repetiré sin ninguna duda.

Muy bien
Pros:

El hotel está muy bien, es familiar, desayuno no es buffet pero está muy bien, es completo. Las camas son muy cómodas, y no hay nada de ruido. Yo viaje con una niña de 2 años y me pusieron cuna gratis. Las chicas que atienden el hotel son muy atentas, y una noche cenamos allí y la comida muy rica. Creo que repetiremos en verano ya que el hotel está a un paso de la playa.
