Decent for price

Cheap and cheerful, Couple of things to bear in mind to improve Parking is extra 10 euro a night which wasnt stated before hand and hard to find the parking aswell. Only 1 pillow offered in the room per person and walls paper thin. Except for that was clean

Disappointing

We booked for 2 nights and unfortunately the hotel did not live up to our expectations. We felt like we were staying in a rest home for the elderly. No entertainment whatsoever, no lunch or evening meals so had to eat out each night and not easy finding a place unless you are driving. The bar shuts at 7 i think , so boring nothing to do unless you go out . I normally like to stay in the hotel and enjoy the experience but unfortunately not. Whilst a kettle etc; was provided this was the first hotel ive stayed in that doesn't provide coffee / tea of some sort. On the plus side the staff are lovely very friendly, the room was ok but noisy first thing as we were directly above the reception/ dining area. Sorry will not be going back again .

The reception was good staff helpful, our room was up in the lift, ok with wheelchair, lots of space in the room, only let down was the bath with no grab rails, my husband couldn't climb into it, luckily we only stayed 1 night, i did mention it at check in no shower only rooms available. Liked the idea of a mini kitchenette. A nice walk down to the restaurants, but steep walking back up, good job my husband had his mobility scooter.

Location just beside local trains is ideal; you get very easy to next villages/towns. Trains or other trafic doesn’t disturb and there is a few good/quality restaurants at the sea line. Nearest Mercadona is in walking distance (approx 1 mile away). Will gladly choose the hotel again!

Criterio de estrellas equivocado

La habitacion no solo estaba muy sucia de polvo, hormigas y otros bichos. Los trenes de la estacion se oian como si pasaran por medio de la habitacion. Intimidad 0 con las cortinas abiertas. Y el desayuno muy escueto y malo. Aparte de la suciedad faltaba mucho mantenimiento, la bañera estaba rodeada de moho y oxido.
