Great location and superb view of the Bay of Santander from the sea view rooms. Interior looking a bit untidy in places and breakfast room wasn’t great. Deposits needed for everything like pool towels, in room safe etc etc.

The hotel has a lovely infinity pool overlooking the sea, it lacks a pool bar area as there is nowhere to get a drink when you are sunbathing. Service in the evening for drinks was a bit slow but the staff are pleasant & it’s good value for money. Didn’t have breakfast or dinner but ate at a locally instead. Excellent value for money.

Really nice area with supermarkets, restaurants and beaches but is a little bit of a walk/bus ride into the city. The balcony had stunning views. Bathroom was a little run down and the pool opening hours weren’t the best didn’t open till 11am. Overall a really good stay and the staff great.
