Comodidad y excelencia al lado de la playa
Pros:

La habitaciones junior suite es súper cómoda y agradable , tenía vista al mar y es increíble.
La ubicación del hotel es muy buena aunque no queda cerca al centro histórico , igual caminando queda a 40 min . Si quieres playa queda en el mejor lugar porque es en frente.

Fabulous location, friendly cafe and reception staff, ask for extra pillows as not provided
Pros:

Location, room, friendly reception and cafe staff

Cons:

Pillows, only two pillows on our super king bed.
No more pillows in the wardrobes etc.

I had breakfast yesterday and asked the young waiter for some pepper, also said in Spanish. He asked an older waitress lady, they both said there was no pepper.
However when I left the restaurant there was a pot of pepper right by the exit door.

Little upset by how I helpful they were, as clearly the young boy waiter was learning.

Underbar havsutsikt
Pros:

Läget vid havet var perfekt. Rummet rymligt och trevligt. Badrummet stort och fräscht.
Det fanns ett antal restauranger en tvärgata bort men om man vill åka till centrala Santander går flera bussar på gatan utanför hotellet.
