5/5
The hotel boasts an ideal location in the heart of the old town, exuding a captivating charm from its 20-year history. The staff are exceptionally kind and attentive, proficient in both English and Spanish. The quality of the food and drinks was top-notch. The pool was fantastic, and our room with a sea view was a dream. We spent 17 delightful days here and didn’t regret a single one. A special thanks to Iveth. It felt like a second home.
