+ the room was clean, the beds were comfortable Do not bother about the breakfast if not included. Pretty cloured juice drinks instead of fresh juice aren`t right for grown ups. The hotel itself and our stay wasn`t unpleasant at all, but there is something that make me feel unsure about this hotel. Sorry

"Dirty Room, Expensive Spa, Average Breakfast but OK location."
Our beds were covered in long black (presumably female) hair, the bathroom was in need of a really good clean, our "triple" room was a double with an extra bed squeezed in making the small space very crowded so, overall, not a four star experience for us but the worst part was the "spa". The promotional photo shows a large swimming pool, which I was looking forward to taking my young son to play in. Sadly it appears that it`s not a swimming pool (despite signs on the wall showing directions to the swimming pool) it is a "water wellness area" for ages 12 and above and it costs 11 euros (including 2 for the swin hat that you must wear - even though it`s not a swimming pool) to get in. The shoddy, worn out, furniture all around the hotel make the building look tired, dirty and old. 2 - 3 stars at best, certainly not four.

"A very comfortable hotel with excellent food available"
An enjoyable stay at a reasonably-priced hotel; it is clean, very comfortable, and the food is very good but there are a few points to be aware of. 1 - The shuttle service is very good on the journey into the city centre, but unreliable on the return to the hotel as it is difficult to find where it will stop among the many parked coaches and is not distinctively marked. 2 - If you have paid for breakfast in advance, make sure you have your receipt with you as they may try to charge you again 3 - Glass doors on the bathroom/toilet ... unbelievable!

"super hotel good food friendly staff"
After booking . Read some negative reviews on other sites and got a bit worried. Stayed for four nights and was very happy. Good rooms, huge comfy beds and well air conned. Bus to Barcelona every hour for 2 euros return and free 24 hour shuttle to airport. City is about 15 min on bus and what a city! . Hotel has supermarket McDonald`s on doorstep. Only negative we would point out is no outdoor pool but for price , overall fantastic hotel and would definitely use again.

"Good location if you need to be close to airport "
facilities are basic but good at this hotel, hotel was spotlessly clean, staff were efficient but not really that friendly. Use of pool facilities incurred an additional charge,which was a disappointment. Hotel location is excellent if catching an early flight or if only on a short stop over

"Pleasant stay"
Our stay was pleasant enough , we one stayed one night , we found the food ok , the room was comfortable but the see through glass bathroom door was a little uncomfortable . Also the television did not have any English speaking channels , although it did have German , French and of course Spannish , I would thought seeing as your hotel is an airport hotel and the majority of your guests are from other country`s , you would of had an English Channel available . But all in all a pleasant stay .
We have again for again for ...
