The big downside to this property was communication. I tried to contact the property but the only telephone number belonged to a place in Seville, Spain who never heard of this property. I called Hotels.com for assistance. After over 1 hour on the phone they could NOT contact the property either. The front desk of the property is only manned from 9 AM to 2 PM. This is extremely inconvenient. They require a very lengthy online process for checking in which did not work for us. We were forced to leave our previous destination early so that we could arrive before 2 PM. Otherwise we would not have had a means of getting in. Other than this extreme inconvenience the property was outstanding. For me being able to communicate with a property when I am on the run travelling is so very important. Certainly preferably more than 5 hours of the day.

On the plus side the apartment was great, quiet and cool. It had what we wanted and it was well situated so nothing was too far too walk. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space. On the minus side, the listing on the Hotel site was a bit misleading. The first photo is of the beach entitled View from property - which was one of the reasons I chose it. The apartment is in the middle of a set of streets with no view at all. The host does not speak English - though Google translate worked fine and she was very helpful. Finally the listing says free parking. There isn't any parking at all! There is a station car park 2 minutes away at 16EUR per day.
