Pros:

La ubicación es estupenda: tienes acceso a pie a cualquier lugar de la ciudad. A pocos metros, una playa y actividades tipo Whale watching.
El staff era joven, pero muy agradable y dispuesto a facilitarte cualquier duda.

Cons:

Nos costó un montón encontrar la entrada del hotel. Apenas hay indicaciones (Google Maps no te lleva al lugar correcto) y cuando llegas a lo que parece es la entrada, no hay ningún cartel que así te lo confirme.
Según nos indicaron, el check-in era a las 15:00, aunque tuvimos que esperar hasta pasadas las 16:00h para ello.
Al desayuno le falta cierta variedad y opciones.
Las instalaciones son anticuadas, quizá demasiado para el precio de la habitación.
Apenas hay enchufes cerca de la cama.

Pros:

Do sítio

Cons:

Pequeno almoço muito fraco, no primeiro dia só se escutava as funcionárias a falar ninguém aparecia na sala.
Limpeza muito má um dos dias cheguei para descansar as 17h ainda não tinham feito limpeza.

Pros:

Da vista da piscina e o acesso à praia. E os rececionistas também eram atenciosos.

Cons:

Muito calor no quarto, não ter ar condicionado num hotel não faz sentido.
Ainda bem que arranjaram uma ventoinha.

Za ty peníze jsem po příchodu na pokoj měla dost smíšené pocity
Pros:

Ubytování se nachází ve výborné lokalitě, snadné parkování, par kroku na plaz, příjemný personal, snídaně průměrné a plně dostačující

Cons:

Nefungovala klimatizace, bylo nám řečené že je toho dlouhodobý problém bez výhledu řešení. Vybavení pokoje je velmi zastarale, nejvíc mi vadili nestabilní křesla na balkone, nemohla jsem si na to sednout. Ubytováni by potřebovala poradně větrat, je tam cítit zatuchlina.
