The hotel itself was generally clean but a bit past its best. The room was adequate, with two single beds that are very old and stained with broken legs The shower was one of those where the pipe runs up from the bath taps & it was hard to control, moving from red hot to cold in a blink of an eye. The view however was great looking over the pool & out to sea. Super sunset The staff were generally friendly except for one lady behind the bar who seemed put out whenever she served you. The maid service too was hit & miss. Made the bed that was about it for 5 days didn’t even sweep the floor The all-inclusive drinks were ok The bar was open from 10.30 am until 11.00 pm for all-inclusive, then until midnight if you bought drinks. If you want to drink at the pool you need €2 deposit on the plastic cup The food was probably the worst I've experienced on an all-inclusive holiday. Breakfasts were usually fine with the typical choices of fry-ups, cereal, toast, fruit, and pastries. Lunch & evenings were a different story. Some days it was hard to find anything that looked appetizing at all and cold most days on occasion the fries were warmed up from previous meals, the meat often seemed overcooked, and warmed up again and much of the veg was too dry. Gravy or sauces were at a premium. I found myself eating all sorts of odd combinations just because the rest of it was so unappealing. The dining room was never busy people were out a lot. I never had any trouble finding a sunbed, even at 11 a.m. Umbrellas were sparse though. The hotel seems to be a base for younger people who are heading out for a night. I regularly heard people coming back at, 4 or 5 in the morning. They weren't causing havoc but you were disturbed by them walking past your room, opening & closing doors Apart from a couple of instances where larger groups got rowdy through the day it was pretty peaceful around the pool. The nearest beach was a 10-minute walk but it wasn't up to much. At the same location you can catch a ferry/taxi across the bay to San Antonio, it costs €4 each & runs every ½ hour or so. Overall I was disappointed. This is a 2-star hotel if you are lucky i won't be returning to this hotel again
