The only way I can sum up this hotel is in the bullet points below: - this is the loudest hotel I’ve ever been too. It does not stop for one second, so if you’re looking for some quiet time this is not the one. The walls are paper thin, I’ve heard every conversation between my neighbours left right, above and below me. The balcony’s are so close together we’re practically sitting on each others lap, and if you’re neighbours smoke like ours did you should expect your whole room and clothes to smell 24/7. The noise was probably our worst complaint, I’ve never been to a hotel where even for 1 minute it’s not quite - the hotel seemed to be the accommodation for approximately 100 teenagers who were on what looked like a school trip. This massively affected our experience because they were loud, crowded all the areas, and made tea times unpleasant at the Buffett as it was a fight to get food on your plate. We found this extremely inappropriate being paying guests on a holiday we had travelled to, and felt like we did not spend our money to be in the same company as those on a school trip. - the Buffett was extremely limited in food. I’ve spent my life going to all inclusive hotels every year and I’d say this one was the most restricted with choice. The salad options were nice, but for heated food your looking at approx 8 different dishes and that’s it (they repeat all the food on the opposite side so it looks like more) - the rooms are basic and old, especially the bathroom. Ours actually had what looked like a splatter of sticky food on the ceiling too but otherwise was clean. The maid service came every day at appropriate times. - the reception staff can barely speak any English so they can’t help you with your problems. They are a bit stand off-ish and never asked us how our stay was when we checked out. The bar staff however were polite, but again couldn’t speak much English so often got orders wrong -you have to pay a deposit for your all inclusive band (never done this before) so prepare for that in advance if you have a big family as it’s 10 euro per person. I’m in the stages of trying to get my money back for this but they are struggling to refund it because I paid contactless; so I’m not happy about that! - the aircon is switched to HEATING. We turned ours on to the lowest setting and was cooking all night, and when we asked reception they informed us they haven’t switched the hotel over to cold aircon yet… we couldn’t sleep with the door open because it made the noice worse, and also our neighbours were smoking 40 cigarettes just over the night time - the pool is absolutely freezing, so you couldn’t go in it. Good points: -shower pressure was good -the bedroom wall was decorative -San magel on tap -you can always get a subbed (it is April though) Good luck to you if you go in summer, if this is what it’s like now then god knows what you’re in for.
