Iglesia del oratorio de San Felipe Neri

I stayed at Eszencia Hotel and, unfortunately, it was not a great fit for me. The room's main positives were its central location, effective air conditioning, and cleanliness. Beyond that, the experience felt disappointing. The room itself was very sterile and lacked any warmth or character. Nearly every surface seemed to be made of plastic, creating an inexpensive, somewhat uncomfortable feeling. There was virtually no ambiance, and the space felt more functional than welcoming. The shower was also extremely small, making it difficult to use comfortably. The rooftop pool area has potential, but there was no shade around the pool, which made it difficult to enjoy during the hottest parts of the day. The deck also did not appear particularly well maintained, with bird droppings visible in several areas. The rooftop bar seemed to function primarily as a local happy-hour gathering spot. While there is nothing wrong with that, travelers looking for a relaxing hotel retreat may be disappointed. During our visit, there were many locals smoking, and the atmosphere felt more like a neighborhood bar than a peaceful amenity for hotel guests. Overall, while the location is excellent and the hotel is clean, the lack of character, uncomfortable room design, and underwhelming rooftop experience would keep me from staying here again.

On the plus side the apartment was great, quiet and cool. It had what we wanted and it was well situated so nothing was too far too walk. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space. On the minus side, the listing on the Hotel site was a bit misleading. The first photo is of the beach entitled View from property - which was one of the reasons I chose it. The apartment is in the middle of a set of streets with no view at all. The host does not speak English - though Google translate worked fine and she was very helpful. Finally the listing says free parking. There isn't any parking at all! There is a station car park 2 minutes away at 16EUR per day.
