We rested in this hotel together with a friend at the end of August 2007. In general, we can say the rest was a success: we did not sit at the hotel, but only came to spend the night. The check-in was quick, but we were given a room in the second building on the first floor overlooking the playground (which was very loved by the children resting in this hotel : )) We were upset at first, but considering that we are not scandalous people, and the budget was limited, we stayed in this room. True, the window was always closed from children with wooden blinds and the room was dim. One of the minuses was an ancient wardrobe for clothes, one of the doors periodically wanted to fall out. The door to our building was opened with an electronic key, and for some reason it didn’t always work, since people were constantly roaming back and forth and we didn’t stand under the door for more than 1-2 minutes. We had breakfast + dinner, since we are not sleepyheads, we always came to breakfast at the opening and did not stand in lines, but then at the exit we had to wade through the line of people who wanted to eat. I’m not particularly spoiled for a variety of food, in my opinion they fed quite tasty. Once at the distribution at dinner, the cook stood and cut the meat. We approached, he cut us off and asked to pour sauce? we agreed. In vain. . . This is probably not for everyone, but it seemed to us that it became impossible to eat meat, and at the same time everything else that lay on this plate. We did not buy drinks at dinner, we took tea bags with us and heated and brewed water in the room with a boiler. True, we did not dare to use tap water, we bought it in a supermarket, although it is somewhat strange for our taste. At first, the weather did not spoil us - it was frankly cold, we decided to climb into the sea only on the second day, desperate to wait for heat, but quickly got out and went for a walk. While the weather was improving, we explored the entire surrounding local territory, walked around the local village (if you can call them villas that way), and were repeatedly barked by local dogs. We went on excursions a lot, and on our own to Barcelona, ​ ​ we managed to lie on the sea, since the weather improved after four days. The hotel is not far from the sea, but you have to go to the transition a little to the side: at first we found the transition to the left of the hotel, a bit far, but we liked the beach at the exit. Then we found it on the right, closer, but the beach seemed less beautiful to us. On the beach, they did not use sun loungers and umbrellas - they lay on their towels, as many do. On the last day, we realized that we had never taken a dip in the hotel pool, and we experienced it. We were not interested in hotel entertainment, we did not attend a disco, but several times we attended live music evenings. At the same time, all the tables were naturally occupied and we had to stand (we did not want to take a table in advance and waste a lot of time waiting). The staff is helpful, trying wholeheartedly to understand our not very good English. Leaving for evening excursions, they changed dinner for lunch without any problems. In general, the rest was a success, the hotel is normal, quite an acceptable budget option
