My friends and i were quite satisfied with our stay but i must say we found the rooms rather pricey. we stayed 5 nights and the prices varied per night from 95euros for 2 nights 145 euros for 2 nights and one night wepaid 155euros.this did not include any breakfast which we felt was over the top price wise. we were also told if we wanted a room at the back of the hotel were it was quieter it was another 20 euros per night per room. too expensive for what we got.

Great location if you are wanting a quieter location but close enough to walk to centre. lovely outdoor area with patio and pool area.Unfortunately our room was not totaly soundproofed. the website states that all rooms are soundproofed, this is incorrect. when we arrived we were offered a room at the back of the hotel for an extra 20 euros per night. we did not take up this offer!Adrian
