Hotel Central Maria

Juan made us feel welcome and comfortable, and the room with the hot tub was great value. My partner and I stayed five nights, and the place exceeded what we expected. The room was modern, clean, and really spacious. There is free parking, plus a supermarket about a minute's walk away. The hotel is on the square with a few bars and restaurants nearby. There's not much else around it, though, so I'd suggest hiring a car. The nearest beach is about a 25-minute drive. We'd absolutely recommend it and stay again.

The village is lovely, and the hotel sits right on the main square. There are a few bars serving great breakfasts and dinners, and free parking near the hotel. Our room was small but fine for two people staying several days, and it was cleaned daily. The water had an odd smell, though it wasn't a major issue. Good value for the money, and I'd recommend it.

The rooms are lovely and the hotel is in a great spot, but the shower door wouldn't shut properly and flooded half the room after each shower. The toilet is screened from the rest of the room only by frosted glass, which won't suit everyone. Breakfast was awful. The restaurant at the hotel used to serve it and was a highlight of our trip the year before, but after what seems to have been a change of ownership in recent months, it's closed and the receptionist now prepares breakfast. There were no coffee options or egg dishes, just a few set choices. We got two tiny chocolate croissants heated in the microwave, or two rock-hard bread slices that tasted like flour and water with a little ham. It was the worst hotel breakfast I've ever had. We found a nearby hotel where we could eat breakfast very well.

Avoid this place. Lorenzo blocked me on WhatsApp after I complained that our room was cold. He was rude, showed no sympathy, didn't believe me, and wouldn't try to sort it out. We visited in January. I had to suggest moving rooms myself, and the new room was only a little warmer. Both rooms were poorly equipped, with no duvets or way to make hot drinks, and the wool blankets were smelly, stained, and dirty. No kettle, tea, or coffee at all. The hot drink machine in reception didn't work either. Reception was poorly equipped, most of its light bulbs were out, and the snack machine was overpriced. Lorenzo said the machines weren't his and that there were cafés outside for hot drinks. That was rude. The burglar alarm sounded inside for many hours on our last night. Since he'd blocked me, my message about it still hasn't been seen. The company website's description of services at the hotel is full of lies. Shame on you, Lorenzo. Your attitude and way of doing business give hoteliers a bad name. A customer service and property management course would be a good investment for you, greedy man. There are many more quaint, homely places locally.
