Sometimes, you get great photos of hotels online only to discover that they must have been taken years ago when the hotel was newly refurbished, but we weren’t disappointed on arrival. The reception staff was very helpful, attentive and courteous. He even helped to bring in our luggage from the car into the lobby. For us it was a stopgap between driving down from Santander to Estepona. Our room was clean and modern. The attractive gardens and outside terrace have sun beds & loungers around the pool. Dinner was good. The only negative was surprisingly the bar manager, whose attitude was appalling. On our arrival, my wife and 90-year old mother-in-law asked for directions to the toilets. The bar manager was very dismissive and abrupt, telling them to wait until he had finished pouring a drink for another guest. After a long trip in the car, all they were asking for was the location of the toilets. His manner and tone was very rude. Even when he realised that we were guests, his manner didn’t change throughout the evening. His other staff must have noticed his rudeness and went out of their way to be professional and courteous. However, we won’t let one person ruin our experience and would be happy to rebook upon our return trip back to the U.K. in a few weeks time!
