Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Hotel was clean and generally quiet, its in a busy area with night clubs and bars so there was some noise but nothing that got in the way of sleep. Staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated in an area which seems to be very popular with German visitors so youll hear very little English spoken, not a bad thing given youre in a non-english spraking country. The transport links were good, with the airport bus and city bus stopping 200m from the hotel. Food options were pretty good, with varied evening options and a decent breakfast every day.

Friendly staff, plenty of choice for breakfast and dinner. Room was very clean. It was a bit far from Palma - 25 minutes on the bus, which stops just around the corner from the hotel, as does the A2 airport bus.
