Pool needs maintenance- black mould Beach loungers shabby old and very uncomfortable Breakfast buffet very poor, fruit choice very limited, busy, no table service for drinks, crowded area round coffee machine, toaster juice machine Evening buffet not very good Crockery etc very shabby Room very nice, great cleaning staff, fab view and beach access very convenient but this is NOT a 5 star hotel by any means and that should be changed on your website. This is a 4 star hotel and we would not have stayed here if we’d known that beforehand. Mis- advertising which is unusual for hotel.com

A good stay.
A good stay. However, there should be more signs to the restaurants and Spa. There are no film channels in any language and no uk BBC news or programmes. Only entertainment on a Saturday evening. Restaurant and room service good very expensive.
