10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, great location near to bus stop snd train station. Lots of selection at buffet breakfast. Small shop next door for supplies if needed."

Ona Las Rampas

8/10 Good

"A couple of downsides we had about the property. First it wasn’t clear that the hotel catered more for Spanish Holidaymakers, particularly with regard to the meal choices (although we didn’t have an issue with this). The other thing is that I think we were put in an accessible room ( possibly because of My Dad’s age although he has no major mobility issues). The room was big but had no balcony or terrace like others on the same floor. Apart from those issues we enjoyed the hotel and found it ideally situated for the beach and transport hubs."
