Great location close to the airport. I had two different rooms on two stays, after arriving at TFS and the night before leaving. One room had a balcony overlooking the boardwalk. The other was overlooking the parking lot and Monta Roja. Noise was not a problem in either. Occasionally, you hear a jet from TFS, but it dies down at night. Rooms are small, as is typical in Europe. Beds were comfortable. No safety rails in shower. One room had no remote for TV, but I did not ask for one. The other had a remote. Many German stations and few English. Breakfast was great except for the line for the coffee machine and the small birds which would fly in and snag your food if you left for a minute. Or the German tourists that would try to snag your clearly saved table while you went to the buffet line. I did not spend time by the pool, but the tourists escaping the cold and wind seemed to enjoy it. A door from the pool area led directly to the El Medano Boardwalk, which had many nice cafes and shops. (See my review of Bliss, where I ate 4 times). A path from the parking lot led directly to the Monta Roja trail, about a 10 minute walk. The restaurant on premises overlooks the beach and the terrace gets quite crowded during the day. The restaurant required reservations, though it never seemed to be full. I had tapas and wine and it was quite affordable and good! Overall, I think this was a great pik cfor staying in El Medano. There were a lot of locals, and it was fun watching the wind and kite surfers!
