“Overall very nice hotel.”

This is a large Hotel with wonderful amenities and entertainment programs. Many of the staff spoke English. We had halfboard, which was served buffet style; not all of the food was to our taste, but due to the large selection we always found something we liked. Our only problems were with the shower( very little hot water...to take a WARM shower, you had to stand directly over the faucet to just get wet. This was reported, but not repaired)and the air condition (after repair of the loud noise the fan made, it still did not cool well). It seemed as if the utilities could not meet the demand and need an overhaul. Santa Susanna is a more modern touristy kind of place, it did not have the charm of an old Spanish town. The beach (about 3-4 minutes walk over the street and under the train tracks) was nice and there were restaurants and stores everywhere.
