Good location but weather unusually poor.
Pros:

Great location right on beachfront. La Zenia is a small and quiet resort area but with plenty of shops and facilities up by main road and motorway. Accommodation ok though some of the furniture is rather cheap and sofa not very comfortable at all.

Cons:

We had a drains smell quite frequently over the week and builders working on the masonry around the doors outside creating noise and dust.
Coupled with very strong winds and cool/dull weather for a few days with Storm Theresa it was not quite the holiday that we had been hoping for.

Für einen langen Aufenthalt nicht zu empfehlen
Pros:

Strandnähe

Cons:

Möbel und Ausstattung sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Wir haben ein Apartment mit Meerblick gebucht, aber mussten auf die Terrasse, um in einer Ecke noch das Meer zu sehen.

Pros:

Fab location only 10 min walk to consum and bars for food can recommend paddy's point staff and food amazing even got taxi home for us

Cons:

It's not what I didn't like as there wasn't anything but a suggestion to put a mirror in each bedroom as if we a group iof ladies we all be trying to get ready at the same time it would be a bit of a rush

To cut a long story short.
Pros:

The location is superb, right on the beach, a 15 minutes walk to several good restaurants and bars. Paddy's point is one of the best Irish bars I've been too, excellent Guinness, food really good staff brilliant. Had slight issue as there were 5 me staying so booked two twin rooms and a double. Arrived and was two doubles and one twin. Spoke to staff explained the situation within 15 minutes an extra single was in the en suite double bedroom.
Cannot fault it.

Cons:

Nothing

Bonitas vistas pero el apartamento ya está algo viejo.
Pros:

Las vistas y la terraza del apartamento.

Cons:

No tiene aire acondicionado ni calefacción. Tan solo un radiador en la habitación. Una botella de agua en la nevera no estaría mal para no tener que ir a comprarla a un kilómetro.
