La verdad es que le pondría un 10 por la amabilidad de todo el personal, el desayuno que aunque no es muy variado pero es de calidad, las cenas son estupendadas, la sala común, el jardín y la piscina son muy agradables, el entorno es maravilloso, la limpieza exquisita... pero el colchón es incómodo y hay muchos comentarios sobre ello como para hacerles caso ya que el descanso es fundamental.

Zuerst hätten wir eine Mindestdauer von 2 Nächten buchen müssen, was aber ein paar Tage vor dem Reisedatum zum Glück auf 1 Nacht reduziert wurde. Zum Glück! Denn die (benötigte) Heizung war kaputt und das Bett sehr unbequem. So unbequem, dass einer von uns beiden in der Bibliothek übernachtet hat. Der andere von uns ist im äußerst hellhörigen Zimmer geblieben und hat immerhin ein paar Stunden länger geschlafen. Die Bibliothek war eigentlich echt super, weil man von dort aus auf beide Meerseiten blicken kann. Auch die kleine Kaffeeecke und die rustikale Zimmereinrichtung waren OK. Uncool war auch, dass das kleine Schwimmbad im April noch nicht benutzbar war, und die Betreiber des Restaurants erst nach mehrmaligem Nachfragen gesagt haben, dass es nur das Tagesmenü zum Essen gibt.

Fazit: Tun Sie sich selbst einen Gefallen und suchen Sie sich ein anderes Hotel aus! Die Realität entspricht leider überhaupt nicht den schönen Bildern im Internet. Das ganze Hotel ist in einem sehr schlechten Zustand und Bedarf dringend einer Sanierung. Die Zimmer sind klein und sehr hellhörig, die Möbel abgewohnt, die Betten durchgelegen und unbequem, überall kommen Ameisen aus den Fugen (bei uns sogar bis in die Rucksäcke). Die alten Holzfenster lassen sich nicht vernünftig öffnen und schließen. Klimaanlage war defekt. Die Badezimmer sind winzig und die Dusche hat keinen vernünftigen Spritzschutz und läuft nicht richtig ab, sodass man jedes Mal das ganze Badezimmer flutet und wenn man Pech hat auch das Zimmer. Die Sauberkeit ist verbesserungswürdig. Die Gemeinschaftsräume wirken ebenfalls nicht einladend. Das Frühstück ist miserabel (Auswahl, Qualität und Service) und ist eher wie in einer Jugendherberge/Hostel als in einem 3-Sterne-Hotel. Abendessen für 20/25€ pro Person zzgl. Getränke haben wir daher vorsichtshalber gar nicht erst ausprobiert. Allein wegen des Hotels sollten sie sich lieber einen anderen Standort als „Cruz de Tejeda“ aussuchen, wie etwa Tejeda oder Artenara. Hinzu kommen, dass es nur ein Restaurant gibt und die Küche dort meist schon um 16 Uhr spätestens aber um 17 Uhr schließt und wenn Sie Pech mit dem Wetter haben (was zumindest im Winter sehr häufig der Fall ist), Cruz de Tejeda den ganzen Tag in dicken Wolken steckt, es stürmt und regnet.
