Hotel reception staff amazing,nothing was too much trouble .room spotless,hotel a little dated but you can see where the money is being spent so well done !.breakfast not really geared up for the english but that's ok.bar staff great but again not geared up for english and snack menu has no english,but thats ok after all it is not benedorm !,Catalonia is more for other nationalities ,but thats fine.their identity and heritage are intact.! I would imagine the party type side of salou is around a mile away ,but might as well be a flight away as it is so different.I think spain is beautiful and this place is no exception,but if trying to be totally spanish is the goal then perhaps there should be some kind of booking site filter to warn or at least prepare clients for a holiday far removed from other costas
