Gorgeous spot!!

Beautiful hotel in a gorgeous spot!! Our GPS took us on an inaccessible gated road—and the reception staff talked us thru how to navigate to the hotel (despite our language barrier) and stayed late to accommodate us. Highly recommend! (And breakfast was great!)

Standarden er knap så god mere

Standarden var generelt faldet. Ved indcheckningen virkede det ikke som om, de havde styr på hvem vi var. Har boet her før. Ingen velkomst glas. Var på halvpension. Havde reserveret bord udenfor, måtte være insisterende for at få pladsen. Fik aldrig vores danskvand. Forretten hed rejesalat, der var to rejer oven på en kartoffelsalat, suppen var ok, måtte bede 3 gange om at få et brød mere, kødet i næste ret var så tyndt og tørt Max et par millimeter tyk, næsten uspiseligt, MEN et spansk par ved siden af fik fyldt med rejer oven på kartoffelsalaten, kødet var 1 cm tykt, det var nemt at skære, kunne vi se - de fik en helt anden service! Fik at vide, at restauranten lukkede kl 22, men det spanske par startede med at bestille kl 21:45 uden problemer. Det synes vi ikke er ok! Alle gæster burde have ens forplejning. Baren lukkede meget tidligt ingen meddeles om det.
