Four of us were squashed into one room in this hotel. We were the only British family staying here and to say the Spanish are ignorant is an understatement!! The food was not-so-typical Spanish, I love Spanish food but pigs trotters??!!! I am not joking they had these on the menu and although we paid for full board we ate out most of the time. How they can make fried eggs taste like that is beyond me, I'm no chef but I can fry an egg!! If you like your food hot (or even luke warm!) then you should not try the food here.
The pool area is too small and the pool too deep. Even the kiddies pool is above waist height on me and I'm 5'2", it is dirty and I came back with an ear infection! Not enough room around the pool to sunbathe especially when the Spanish kids do nothing but run around like maniacs jumping in and out of the pool constantly.
It is farther than 5 minutes to the beach as quoted and the centre where all the bars etc are is at least a taxi ride away, so not very practical.
We had a good time and thankfully we laughed about how terrible this hotel was.
