    Overbooked

    Arrived at the hotel late evening to be told we were being upgraded to the Riu San Fransisco hotel on a full board basis instead of half board and a taxi would take us there. I enquired if we didn't prefer this hotel could we come back and was told there had been a flood and 4 rooms were out of use so there was nothing available that night. When we arrived at the Riu San Fransisco it was in a very busy and noisy German area full of party goers in the streets and a down grade to the Hotel Festival. Not the area or hotel we had chosen from Trip Advisor reviews. I understand this hotel is overbooked on a regular basis. We complained and were moved back to the Riu Festival the next morning after breakfast, but this was not a good start to our holiday. The Hotel is very nice great food with a terrace to eat outside if you prefer, and the entertainment was very good. The pool is mainly in the shade from trees, but the beach is a short walk away and very nice you can walk for miles and find a quite spot which we did every day.

    Great stay

    A very clean, quiet hotel with fabulous choice for breakfast and dinner. The pool area was very clean but pool only had ladders to climb down and no steps in, which made it difficult to get in and out of. Quiet area but in close proximity to beer Keller and club scene.

    Disappointed

    Went to this hotel and couldn’t fault it a year ago. but a year on hotel and staff still brilliant. But it’s been destroyed by the new policy of not having smocking areas outside like they did before for none smokers not at all pleasant to have to sunbath in clouds of smoke

    Language

    Stuff doesn’t speak english except from those at the reception. The hotel is very nice though, very clean, near the beach but still away from big noise. It maybe needs more entertainment for young people- like cocktail and DJ nights :)
