    The front desk was very helpful and nice. The swimming pool is very nice and they have some good COVID protocols.

    Room and balcony was pleasant. Pool was nice to sit by in the afternoon sun. Ideal distance from the busier Albuferia and a good walking distance to closer and smaller beaches.
