We arrived at 1.30 am due to a late flight and on arrival the night porter gave us a very disappointing twin room, despite us having reserved a double room. He said there was nothing else available but that he would leave a note for reception to change us in the morning. This room felt cramped and dark and was very disappointing. Morning came and we were told that a "double" room is the same as a "twin" room, this is despite having emailed the hotel to confirm the booking and the double room a week before. Despite being told that nothing else was available and being pretty disappointed about this, 10 minutes later, reception called to say they had found us a new room - with a double bed. I think it may even have been an upgrade. This room was a great room, spacious, good bathroom, lovely terrace with a great view over countryside to the distant hills. It changed the whole experience. The room was quiet, so no one could hear us which was good for the other guests. There is no mini-bar which is a shame. Breakfast was ok, the usual international menu. The only negative is the coffee machine, I know its hard to get good coffee in Spain but the machine even pre-sugars your coffee...The hotel is just a few minutes from the quieter end of Talamanca beach so location is good, its a Eu10 taxi ride to Ibiza Town, or there is an infrequent bus service. There's also a great supermarket round the corner for anything you might need. Ibiza is not cheap but this hotel represented good value compared to many others. I'd stay again.
