    The breakfast was really good, with plenty of fresh fruits and juices. the room was very clean and spacious, with comfortable beds that made our nights very enjoyable. the location was very convenient, just a short walk from the beach and local shops.

    Our experience was not perfect. the WiFi connection was very poor, and the staff did not seem to be able to fix it.

    Ubicación céntrica y cerca de la zona turística y del metro. Cama cómoda y habitaciones con aire acondicionado y baño privado. Personal amable y servicial. Supermercado y puestos de comida cercanos. Relación calidad/precio excelente. Habitaciones modernas y equipadas. Dos paradas de metro cerca.

    Imposible encontrar algo.

    The hotel is located conveniently near the beach. One can take a stroll down to the beach in less than 3 minutes, and many good restaurants and markets are also close by. the rooms are spacious with good Wi-Fi and a nice garden view. the breakfast is delicious and served with friendly staff.

    The hotel needs to improve some aspects of their facilities. the kitchen is not fully equipped, with no cutlery, plates, or a kettle to use.

    The breakfast was delicious and included fresh smoothies and fruits. the hotel features a well-equipped kitchen and spacious, clean rooms with comfortable beds. The location is also great, with easy access to nearby shops and only a short walk to the beach.

    We experienced a lot of noise from nearby traffic early in the morning, which disturbed our sleep. the internet was not reliable and communication with staff, who had limited English proficiency, was difficult at times.
