The hotel went out of their way to find and return our ignition keys for our motorcycle trike, showing great care and attention. The rooms were basic, lacking some amenities like a hairdryer, iron, or tea/coffee facilities. The service, especially from the head waiter, was very helpful and accommodating. The location was fantastic for a relaxing experience, near the river and attractions like Balnearios Archena. The dining options were disappointing with limited selections. Overall, a place with caring service but room for improvement in amenities and dining.
