Muy buena ubicación en un área muy tranquila del Rodadero conocida localmente como Cantamar, un poco alejado del bullicio de la zona más turistica. Queda cerca de supermercados, comidas rápidas y de una pequeña playa poco visitada por los turistas. El hotel tiene buena infraestructura, es limpio y el personal muy amable. Muy recomendado
