Small nice hotel close to the beach

Great location next to beach. Not very close to city centre though. Comfortable beds. Very small pool but beach is a two minute walk away. Hotel offers a brekkie for 6 euro but we opted for a breakfast at Carrefour for half that price. Friendly and helpful staff.

convenable pour 1 nuit

hôtel situé à 2 pas de la plage à côté d'une pinède doté d'une petit piscine où l'été il doit faire bon s'y rafraîchir. Nous y avons séjourné, une nuit, en Avril ou les température n'étaient pas chaudes et il y avait du vent : pas de chauffage dans la salle de bain : c'était limite. Un bon accueil et un bon petit déjeuner pris dans une véranda non chauffée. Le parking est nécessaire car il est compliqué de se garer à l'extérieur : ruelles étroites. La chambre était petite, propre et simplement meublé avec un petit frigo. La salle de bain est à rafraîchir et une douche serait la bienvenue : enjamber la baignoire devient pour bientôt des sexagénaires peu pratique.

What a lovely, friendly place to stay. Clean, comfy, with a homely feel. Was a nice breakfast for 5€,with freshly baked break, cheese, meats, pate, jams, etc. Cornflakes, yoghurt and fresh fruit. Eaten outside next to a, small pool in a pleasant garden. Excellent price. Would come again. In fact we stayed an extra night. Basic but good, well equipt room.

Spanish accommodation with a very warm welcome.

Absolutely fantastic service. The guy on reception was warm and friendly. He really tried to speak English but that was not such a problem as we both could speak a little of each others languages. Cheep and cherful accommodation in very Spanish style. I would definitely stay again if im passing.
