Categories

Cleanliness
8
Rooms frequently described as clean with daily housekeeping, but several guests reported issues (strong sewage smell in one room, complaints about moquette/carpet and some odd room layouts), so cleanliness is good overall but not flawless.
Service
10
Consistently excellent: staff repeatedly described as very friendly, attentive and helpful (early check-in, luggage holding, upgrades, special birthday cava and cake, warm welcome), making service a standout feature.
Location
9.2
Generally strong: within walking distance of restaurants and the beach for many guests and praised for rooftop views; one report mentioned needing to Uber for some destinations, but location is overall very convenient for holidaymakers.
Room Quality
8.8
Rooms praised for very comfortable, extra-large beds, balconies, AC and fridge; some negatives around layout (odd shower/room arrangement), missing large mirror and lack of bathroom sockets or a reliable hairdryer.
Amenities
8.7
Good boutique amenities: rooftop breakfast restaurant, tapas bar and a pool area well suited for adults-only guests. Balanced by reports of a small/very cold pool at times, crowded sunbeds and occasional lack of pool staff.
Value for Money
8.3
Mixed: several guests praised excellent price/quality and good value, while at least one guest found it overpriced for what was offered, so value is slightly above average overall.
Food and Beverage
9.2
Very positive: breakfast repeatedly described as excellent buffet, well replenished and enjoyed on a rooftop with views; minor notes about limited variety from a few guests but F&B is a strong point.
Overall Experience
9
Overall highly recommended by many reviewers: pleasant, tranquil boutique hotel with attentive staff, great breakfast and comfortable rooms; a few practical issues exist but they do not outweigh the generally excellent stay.

Es carísimo para los pocos servicios que te ofrecen
Pros:

La cama era muy cómoda y grande

Cons:

Las almohadas son muy muy incómodas, en el desayuno poca variedad, y ningun recepcionista sabía hablar ESPAÑOL, yo trabajo en un hotel y me parece muy mal por esa parte

Para voltar...
Pros:

Simpatía dos funcionários, limpeza top, qualidade/preço muito bom.
Pequeno-almoço variado e em quantidade
Quarto amplo com cama bastante grande e cómoda.
