This is our second time staying at this lovely hotel, and we absolutely enjoyed it. Breakfast at Melia, accompanied by live music, is fantastic. Although they usually host it in the jazz room downstairs, it has temporarily been moved to the lobby on the first floor due to an ongoing construction project. While I understand this is only a short-term change, I wasn't very happy about having people with suitcases passing right next to my omelet during breakfast. Aside from that, our stay was wonderful. Thanks to the reception for arranging a welcome bottle of wine for us!
