Scottish tourists here. Have to say that Hotel Planas was a surprisingly great choice. My partner and I usually work on a bit of a budget and go for value accommodation, preferring to spend more outside the hotel than inside.
I have to say the exterior of the building is decent and recognizable enough that it was easy to find and it was positioned a mere minute walk from the beach and a good restaurant was right opposite. Outside is lovely with a clean pool/sun-bathing area, seating area and very pleasant bar with accommodating staff. The hotel itself looks great and welcoming in the main foyer and staff were always great and did great speaking English and ordering taxis for us.
The rooms were a little more dated than the foyer but for us who prefer to be out and about it was perfectly acceptable for the price. Adjustable air con for the room was a very welcome essential given the outdoor temperature, and that alone made stepping into the room a giant relief.
Downsides were the bathroom which had a shabby shower, with wobbly head that was hard to direct and a bit of a sewage smell, especially in the morning, but nothing unbearable. The beds/mattresses were rock solid but we managed to get our heads down easily enough. I think the biggest unavoidable downside for HP is the location amidst a noisy traffic junction. In the pool or chilling on the patio, vans were idling and fast cars were firing past.
Even still, we would not hesitate to return given the value. Thank you HP!
