All hotell in need of refurbishment. Room was tiny and whilst basically clean when arrived - the standard wasnt maintained. Floors not fully swept or washed, there was even sand in the handles of the wardrobe. Balcony had not seen a broom all season. Window on to balcony on the outside was thisck with grime. Towels were changed when I asked but in the 9 nights I was there - the maid made the bed twice in all that time!
The rooms are really just rooms above a bar which offers a good buffet breakfast. The bar is really a locals bar where the local men play boules in the evening and their wives play cards in the bar - the are guests predominantly german - if you are English and dont speak spanish or german - forget it! There was never anyone at Reception and despite me having all appropriate documentation I hadnt been booked in correctly by On The Beach to arrive at the Hotel - fortunately they did have a room free - a blessing as I arrived at 1am !!
