My stay at the hotel was delightful overall. The rooms were tasteful and in excellent condition, seeming to have been recently renovated, although a bit on the small side in comparison to our recent stays at apartments in Mallorca. The dining room was a bit overcrowded and badly set out. On the bright side, our room was upgraded to a bigger one with 2 balconies and a jacuzzi at no extra cost.
