Mel, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

An excellent hotel. The staff were so friendly and helpful, giving us great recommendations and providing anything we asked for (bottle openers, beach towels). The rooms are really modern and clean with excellent aircon. The location is also really good to walk around Santander. The pool is also really nice and much deeper than we had thought! We would definitely recommend this hotel.
