Great place to stay with the family, local facilities are great. I would say noise is an issue and more should be done about guest being nosiy at night past 11pm and cleaning should happen every 3/4 days.

Good but needs updating

Great location and good apartments. However, the propery is "itred". Needs modernising. Also very disappointed with the apartment we were given, even though the complex was quiet and not at full occupancy. Our balcony had no view and felt very boxed in when you were seated on it. Yet, I'd booked an apartment with a sea view - it was only from the living room window, and not the balcony. Otherwise, place is clean and convenient.

Conventient for good price.

It did the job to stay close to my parents renting a condo. Beds rock hard and we had singles assuming no king available? Very late heck in time of 5pm. Checkout, no thank you for staying, how was your stay etc. Found staff not very friendly except for at the La Plaza restaurant on site. Food sub par there. ABBA show was great.
