Anybody who is used to the north European standard of 5* hotels should absolutely AVOID this "beach hotel" with general mediocrity and a four lane highway in front, mentioned nowhere. Abstain ! Avoid it if possible.

We’d cycled up from Ayamonte and arrived at the Hotel wet through, the staff quickly checked us in and helped with the bikes and our bags - it was very much appreciated. Breakfast the next morning was plentiful and they took the time to explain about the buffet and the extras we could order.
