- 3My opinion about this hotelFrederic - Aug 25, 2009
We went in plain august and paid for a last minute booking the highest amount. In that period the hotel has difficulty to maintain a smooth servicelevel, there\'re too many rooms for the area the hotel offers. This resulted in waitinglines for the restaurant, insufficient shadow locations near the pool and a in general full pool.
This is a typical familyhotel and would not recommend for non-child couples or singles or people with little nerves for crying kids. The beach is a bit far off and not very clean, the direct surroundings have little to none things to do.
The entertainment is fragile, which other Barcelo hotels have organised in a much better way.
The staff is friendly though and the food is variable and good.
Simply for what we paid for the stay and what was offered doesn\'t make the match.
