"Food and service terrible"

2.0

really disappointed in this hotel- it is NOT 4star! they shut the restaurants and bars leaving just the food hall and entertainment bar which is not what was advertised and meant we were all crammed together which was hideous. the food was repeated night after night- and was awful- the so called stations was someone frying fish and meat and left in a tray to get cold - same with chips- cold crunchy chips! bread was cheap and on some days the “baguettes” hadn’t been cooked properly. our mattress’s were broke - even feeling the springs pop-alongside the worst pillows i have ever seen- so bad we feel we need a holiday to get better as our backs are now so painful. also they do not give you a kettle in the room and refuse to let you have one as we weren’t in a superior room- i have never heard of anything like this before and i have travelled the world. the staff are miserable and work hard as it appeared to be very understaffed. there was one beach bar open outside the hotel that closed early-1830 ish- so absolutely no alternatives to their awful food unless you want to pay between €21 and €27 euros each way in taxi to Rota- the bus goes every 2hrs and stops running at 1900- and doesn’t run weekends. the shared toilets some did not lock and the pool ones had no hand soap the entire week we didn’t get what was advertised and were disappointed with quality and lack of choice- feel abit cheated to be honest

Verdaderamente me gustó todo como siempre quizá que este año las habitaciones no las han dado muy lejos de la recepción llevo muchos años yendo

La distancia a las habitaciones deberían de poner un patinete para llegar 😂

"Buenos días para los niños"

8.0

Las piscinas, instalaciones y camas. La animación para los niños

El espacio del restaurante se hace pequeño para tanta gente, es complicado elegir en el buffet. La comida en sí está buena y es variada, sin salirse de lo normal.
