Portocobo

The rooms and beds are really comfortable, and the views are spectacular if you get a room with one. There's also a small island across from the hotel that you can visit. You won't regret staying here.

AVOID this place! The manager's attitude was very poor, and it seemed clear they don't check the rooms or try the food. The room was basic and nothing like the pictures used when booking, and I didn't get the room I'd reserved. There was black fungi growing in the bathroom. The 4☆ meal was the worst I've ever had, with a 30 cent yogurt pot for dessert. Every B&B I've stayed in across Spain offered better accommodation and food. I felt conned and misled about both the room and dinner. Since I'd paid upfront, they refused a refund. Don't be fooled by the 4☆ rating. It's not even one star. AVOID AVOID AVOID.

It's much quieter here than central hotels, and the location is beautiful, with nice walks and beaches nearby. In a sea view room you can hear the waves at high tide. The room was tidy and clean, and the staff were helpful, with most speaking English. The bar and restaurant are okay, though there's a supermarket nearby and better restaurants around. A taxi to central La Coruna, for example Obelisco, takes about 25 minutes and costs around 18 euros one way. You can hear noise between rooms, but I only noticed it around 11 am when cleaners started in the rooms next door. It's a little expensive, but that's because of the location.

Some of the staff were friendly, and parking was convenient. The rooms could use an upgrade, as I expected better for the price. Be ready for noise and loud cleaners.
