Cons:
No mini-fridge/minibar in many rooms

Some areas/facade/older furniture noted as neglected

Categories

Cleanliness
7.2
Mixed reports: several guests mention ants in sinks/desk and rust/paint loss in a bathtub, while others explicitly note clean rooms. Overall slightly below standard due to insect reports and isolated maintenance issues.
Service
8.7
Generally praised: multiple reviews highlight friendly, helpful staff, early access to facilities and attentive reception. A few mentions of unfriendly restaurant staff, but service overall is a clear strength.
Location
7.8
Mixed sentiment: convenient for certain attractions and public transport/tram for some guests, sea views and quiet for others; several complaints about distance from beaches, being set on a back alley or awkward access in a building.
Room Quality
7.6
Positives include comfortable beds, some rooms renovated and with terraces; negatives include missing mini-fridges/minibars, occasional worn furniture, curtain issues and dated fittings in some rooms.
Amenities
7.8
Strong points: large pool, free parking nearby, gym access and generally good facilities. Downsides: lack of in-room fridges/minibars reported repeatedly and some guests found pool/photos misleading.
Value for Money
8.2
Generally good value according to several guests (explicit 'Preis-Leistung TOP' and positive comments), though a few felt breakfasts or certain aspects did not justify price.
Food and Beverage
7.5
Breakfast receives praise in multiple reviews, but there are consistent complaints about buffet items missing/not replenished, an average hotel restaurant and an extra charge for breakfast noted by one guest.
Overall Experience
9.2
Majority of reviews are very positive: comfortable sleep, helpful staff, good pool and nice views for many guests; isolated very negative experiences (cancelled reservation, poor access) exist but do not dominate the overall sentiment.

Si explicarán bien su ubicación y escasos servicios, sumado a sus precios caros, aseguro que nadie iría.

Mini vacaciones
Pros:

Muy bonito y en buena zona, justo enfrente de la playa, el desayuno genial, no es el tipico hotel con mil cosas para desayunar, pero había un poco de todo y para que mas…
Aunque el parking estaba lleno, no fue difícil encontrar aparcamiento ya que hay varios parkings publicos justo debajo. Todo el personal super amable y atento, sin duda un sitio para volver

DECEPCIONANTE, LE SONRAN ESTRELLAS.
Pros:

Ninguna.

Cons:

1°nada mas llegar nos dijeron que nos cambiaban de habitación a una superior por el mismo precio, nos instalamos en dicha habitación y resulta que en la pared del aire acondicionado chorreaba agua y estaba toda la pared llena de moho y agua en el suelo, lo dijimos y nos cambiaron a una mas grande que si parecía habitación superior ya que esta si tenía la puerta al acceso de la terraza abierta, en la otra estaba cerrada (no me gustó que intentaran engañarme así)
2° tanto la primera habitación como la segunda había hormigas, sobretodo en el baño, me parece bastante asqueroso por lo que pagamos por la estancia.
3° reservé con antelación una plaza de garaje, cual fué mi sorpresa al ir a dicha plaza que era individual, de puertas que se habrán hacía los lados de chapa antigua, ese día hacía mucho viento lo cual hacía que las puertas se cerrarán, porque eramos dos y uno pudo sujetarla mientras otro hacia malabares para meter el coche en la plaza ya que no era llano sino que tenía una pequeña rampa con lo cual teníamos que girar a la izquierda hacia la plaza y acelerar para subir la mini rampa pero con cuidado de que no rallaras todo el coche ya que como tengas uno un poco grande a lo mejor ni te entra ni de ancho ni de alto, al abrir el maletero daba con el techo.
4° no había nevera, en un sitio de tanto calor y de mínimo 3 estrellas, he estado en sitios de menor nivel que si tenían, es algo básico creo yo.
