Dirty half finished room.
Uncomfortable stay
Rude staff
I went there for lunch on the 31st of Dec, waited for a very long time to even get a menu, finally, being ignored by the staff I got one myself. After finally asking someone to take my order I was not informed about the Menu del Dia option, and in the end we ordered pretty much the same food but paid more than we should have. As I heard the conversation at the next table, the waiter was trying to charge the next table the festive menu price rather than the regular, even though another waiter informed our neighbours that it's the regular menu's price. Overhearing the conversation I asked to change my order to use the menu, but was refused. The seafood paella wasn't good - definitely not freshly prepared, possibly reheated or overcooked. I had to wait and again fight for the waiter's attention to get lemons for the seafood. Finally, the bill came with an extra charge for bread we never had. On the plus side the waiter instantly corrected the bill, but you need to be vigilant and read it carefully. Overall, a very disappointing and overpriced experience with slow, inattentive service. There are many better places in the area with better service and food.
The food: mid
The service: awful
The Temperature: -20 degrees
I have never been at a place this awful. One of the waiters literally looked like he wanted to kill us. We felt very unsave.
DONT GO HERE, EVER.
More then, what disturbed me more was the fact we ordered day menu with dessert included and at the final they charged us with two desserts. You can’t do that.
And another this was the tap water they charged with.
The food was medium.
They have nice seating area in the restaurant, breakfast is good. Walking straight ahead to the beach area. A lot of restaurants near by.
Bring your own beach towel, otherwise it’s 6euro to rent.
There was a 35-minute wait between the starter and the main course.
People who arrived after us were served before us.
Also, the seafood portion was quite small for two people.
I won’t give a low rating, but I truly hope things improve.
It’s a restaurant that looks great and is in a fantastic locatio
