“This hotel is basic. Four stars is a stretch.”
Breakfast had everything you’d expect, but it was self‑service tea and coffee from awful machines, and everything, including the jam, came in a dispenser. Fresh honey was a nice touch. It was adequate and plentiful but basic. The room was basic and nothing luxurious. On the second day I unrolled the shower foot towel and a giant cockroach flew across the bathroom, scaring me. I had to sweep the cockroach out of the room with the foot towel, which left me feeling uneasy. I told the elderly Spanish gentleman at checkout, and he looked very annoyed, especially since I had taken a picture of the cockroach to show him. He offered a brittle, blunt “sorry” and then called housekeeping to address the issue. I got the impression that a bad review annoyed him more than me being greeted by a massive cockroach in my shower towel. The coffee from the machine was undrinkable. There were small cups for water and vending machines on most floors. Would it be very expensive to give people a small bottle of water they could refill? I’d like to go for an early morning swim, but the pool is shut off and closed with a red and white striped chain—looks like a crime scene. You’re not allowed into the pool until 10 o’clock, which makes no sense to me.
