Hermosos Atardeceres. !!!
Pros:

Lo que más nos gustó junto a mi señora ,es que estaba ubicado frente al mar mediterraneo ; ya que somos de Chile y nos queríamos bañar en estas aguas .

Cons:

Que el clima no acompañó con el Sol que queríamos e incluso a ratos cayó lluvia y salió viento ,pero el Sunset es un paraíso desde esta vista .

Bit too formal and not very relaxed atmosphere but pool and room nice and reception staff helpful
Pros:

Great rooftop view and pool - but pool quite small. Room pretty standard so not quite what expected for 5 star. Brilliant quiet air conditioning.

Cons:

Breakfast area bit gloomy. Staff were nice but lady in charge kept pushing them to clear our table at breakfast and they kept taking plates before I had finished or when going to get more food. Made staff come across too formal and not at ease speaking to quests. Not great atmosphere. You could make coffee in room but no kettle for tea

Pros:

Friendly helpful staff, who didn't make you feel that they were only doing it for the tip. We had had a stressful day so ate at the hotel and were pleasantly surprised by the quality and the reasonable price. We enjoyed the pool and surrounds. Great views from the rooftop. Good location and easy walk to the port area and central area.

Cons:

Disappointed that the pool didn't open in the morning at the time stated.
