Started day with a ????? breakfast that catered to all? tastes, diets and preferences! Room was neatly decorated and ?? sized, plus it was so quiet! Only downside was that it was a bit too warm?, but there was possible ventilation through a large window. Interesting curtain set-up that kept it dark and private, however it opened inward so couldn't keep open with curtains drawn. ?Bathroom was great, with sun-lounge towels ?for the terrace pool & solarium - very nice! ?️ Dinner was exceptional - beautifully prepared, delicious and good value??.

We stayed here for 1 week and could happily do it again. Everywhere you go, the unbelievable staff make you feel welcome. The atmosphere is created by the helpful, efficient and professional people, and we thank them all from the bottom of our hearts. The restaurant is outstanding and every day we enjoyed delicious food with a Spanish twist. The room was comfortable, including the bed; while the furniture was not the newest, it was fine. Cleaning service was very good. Location was great, near the metro station and within walking distance of the city center. Great value for money, we would absolutely come back and recommend this place.
This hotel is in a great location and is close to the metro for convenient transportation to many attractions. The breakfast provided is worth the purchase, as there is not much in the area except for fast food and takeaways. The staff are friendly and speak English, and the rooms are clean and pleasant. The terrace has a nice area to relax in, with a pool to cool off. All in all, this is an excellent hotel. I would certainly stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay in this hotel. The room was exactly what we expected and was very clean. Air conditioning, extra blankets and pillows, and a mini bar were all present. From the rooftop, we could see gorgeous views. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. For those on the half board basis, please be aware that the dinner only had two main course options (which changed daily), a limited selection of starters and desserts. Drinks, apart from fresh water, are not included. Breakfast had a great selection for everyone, and the food was of excellent quality. Overall, we had a great experience.
This place was very accommodating for our stay! The room was more than enough for a family of three, with a view on the seventh floor. However, there is one detail to be aware of - the windows open all the way, and there is a sheer drop of several stories. I was a bit worried since we had a teenager with us, but I would be far more uneasy if there were smaller children in the room. All in all, a pleasant stay.
