To our dismay, we arrived at the hotel to find it locked, chains on the front door and derelict. Weeds in every gutter, and the air of deriliction.
After some time, a security man came to dispose of rubbish and he offered to help. He told us that the hotel has been closed for a long time, and despite that, it is still on the internet, and they accept money!
The security man put us in touch with another hotel who offered us a room on the same terms. However it was about 25 minutes drive away.
Having driven for over five hours from the Costa del Sol in the snow and sleet, we were frazzled. Despite the staff doing their best, we were less than pleased.
