Pros: The spa was very nice. Small, like the hotel, but has everything needed. Breakfast was good. We liked the fact that the hotel is small and also liked the design. The room itself is ok, with a good bed. I needed to have something ironed. They could not provide me an ironing device, but proposed to do have someone do it for me within the hour (for 6USD), which I appreciated, as it really needed ironing. I would recommend the hotel and would go back.

Pros: I loved the contemporary look of the hotel, the reception in particular. The staff were really friendly, nothing was too much trouble. I went for the arrival of the boats racing on the Clipper Around the World Yacht Race and the hotel was some distance from the marina - my fault for not doing better research but as it was much nicer than the hotels nearer to the marina so it was worth the walk or a taxi ride! The cafe is good for breakfast and if you don't want the full buffet you can just have a pastry and a drink.

Pros: -modern and stylish hotel. Rooms are great ,very comfy,with a huge terrace depending on which side you are staying,overlooking the garden or the street. Staff is very friendly & nice. Restaurants, beach, bus terminal more or less all in walking distance. Spa and wellness area quite small but relaxing enough. TV is a bit old and quality quite bad for such a new hotel,but not a big drama;). We had a great stay!

Pros: Rooms are large and very well suited for families with children. It is efficient and comfortable, even though there is nothing particularly charming. The bedroom balcony was ver nice. Very good price for a 4 star hotel.
Cons: There is nothing charming about the hotel except for its lobby. Maybe rooms & corridors could be just a touch fancier. There is no swimming pool.
5,0 Okay
Pros: The location was good and it was modernish.
Cons: It was almost as if we weren’t there. I have never in my life been to a hotel where the front staff was so dismissive. Of the 5-7 people on staff that we interacted with, perhaps only one person was helpful. We could not wait to leave the hotel. One night we had an issue with our Uber driver and tried to get the attention of the front desk person for assistance, he was too busy on his video call to help. Our Uber driver had to go into the hotel to talk to him to explain (we don’t speak Spanish). This is by far the worse hotel experience I have ever had in my entire life.

Cons: There was no room on the parking when I arrived, so be early if you want a parking spot

Pros: Personnel was very friendly and helpful. The hotel offered good value for money. It was relatively clean. Bead and pillows were comfy.
Cons: Cleaning could have been more thorough. Floor felt sticky, there were ants in the shower. I didn't find it too easy to get to the centre. Even though it isn't that far away, it is a 40/50 minute walk and buses are unpredictable in the area, thus I wouldn't vouch for the location.
