From 7.09 to 17.09 we rested at the Best Negresco II hotel. We chose a hotel for a long time and settled on this one. For a 4* the hotel is very good. Located an hour or more from Barcelona airport.
The hotel consists of two buildings, which are separated by a small road. The rooms are quite spacious for Spain. I advise everyone who will book rooms in this hotel not to be stingy and choose a sea view. As it is stated that the standard rooms face a pine grove, well, this is not entirely true. Under the window we had three pines and that's it... I wouldn't call it a grove. . We wanted to pay extra and change to a room with a sea view, but at the reception they said that all the rooms are occupied and they won’t be able to change us. I had to stay with a view of the "grove". ))) In the room, the TV shows the first channel, I can’t say that it’s good ...it’s okay, comedians are constantly shown on the second Russian channel, but it’s almost impossible to watch it, because it ripples a lot.
On many sites I saw it was written that the refrigerator was paid, but it was not so that the refrigerator could be used completely free of charge. Safe in the room for a fee, you can rent it by paying at the reception.

The food is top notch. We took 2 meals a day (breakfast, dinner). Pancakes and scrambled eggs were prepared for breakfast, there were always several types of sausage and cheese. Various pastries, a lot of fruits (apples, plums, melon, watermelon, peaches and nectarines, etc. ). Several types of juices, and you could make yourself tea or coffee (in a coffee machine).
For dinner there was always an abundance of both meat and fish. A separate table was set every day either with different varieties of sausage and meat (including their national jamon and dry-cured sausage), or cheese (starting with ordinary varieties and ending with blue cheese). There was always a very rich sweet table, jelly, and they also gave ice cream. I want to note that at dinner all drinks are paid!
And compared to the prices in the supermarket differ by an order of magnitude! ! !
Not far from the hotel there are supermarkets where, if desired, you can buy juice and water, and a lot of other tasty things.
The beach is very close to the hotel. In Spain, all the beaches are municipal, so sunbeds and umbrellas are for a fee. in shops you can buy a mat for 3 euros and an umbrella for 9 euros. In fact, most tourists do just that. Since the beach is municipal, I won’t say that it is very clean ...we saw that they clean it in the mornings, but it’s still dirty and there are a lot of ants!
The hotel has a decent pool, sunbeds by the pool are free, but why a pool if there is such a wonderful sea ! ! !
I would like to commend the hotel staff. Very friendly, both at the reception and the waiters. The front desk is always trying to help. They know Russian very poorly, mostly they speak English.
Of the Russian-speaking staff, only two people at the reception, the girl Oksana and the young man did not remember the name. If problems arise, they can be found, as I blamed, depending on the duty, either in the first or second building.

Have a good rest!
