The hotel is older and run down! The old elevator outside to get your bags into the hotel is also old. Otherwise 15 steps to get your bags to the lobby! Breakfast was cold both mornings and good luck with the coffee! Location is close to cruise port!

Verified traveller

We would certainly return if we had a room where noise from adjoining rooms was not a problem, in all other respects this is a lovely hotel. Travellers should be aware that the walking route to Arucas is partly on a main road without pavements.
