Todo un acierto
El hotel es todo un acierto!! Bien situado, el personal muy amable. Un 10 en limpieza y todo está muy bien cuidado. Los colchones para mi gusto personal eran un pelín blandos, pero aún así la cama es grande y cómoda. El desayuno muy variado y todo estaba buenísimo. Es un poco complicado aparcar a algunas horas ya que es zona de playa, pero también nos coincidió que eran las fiestas patronales. Es un hotel para repetir

Una semana santa pasada por agua…
Todo muy bien. Muy amables y el único pero es que no hay rampas en el municipio para discapacitados o están en un estado que prácticamente las hace inaccesibles

The staff was great. Breakfast was good, but crowded due to a tour group. Our room was on a busy street. When the tour group's bus returned after 1:00 AM there was so much noise! The bus beeped and beeped as it backed up and the tour group was very noisy for quite awhile. Ask for a room not on the main road. Nice town, and easy to walk to the beach.
