Very friendly place at excellent location and breathtaking view. The room had lot of space. The strong point is meticulous cleanliness. Breakfast simple and good. We would like to come again.

Don't expect any luxury as a coffee maker or fridge in the room and the toiletries are just basic. However, the friendly personnel is happy to provide things like ice cubes or hot water if you want to make tea in the room.

Absolutely stunning views of the Ria de Arosa. One can observe how colours and light change during the day. Room was cosy and beds were super comfy. The terrace was also great. Breakfast was very good. It was a buffet with the same options every morning. The best were toasts you could make for yourself either with jam or with homemade tomato sauce. Stuff were absolutely friendly and the quality of service outstanding. We really recommend this hotel!

The only thing I thought could be improved is to place a hook or 2 in the bathroom around the sink where one could hang the cosmetic set. Other than that everything else was fantastic.

Lovely hotel run by lovely and kind staff. Quiet, calm and relaxing. Our room had amazing views to the swimming pool and ria and was serviced daily. Best sunset ever.
