Hotel Golden Sand

Pros: friendly staff, good location, clean enough, breakfast is actually pretty decent selection of different bits Cons: very dated, some very suspicious stains around, walls are like paper, bed was not very comfy. Big up to Martí for the recommendations. Would I come back? Probs not. But for the price it is what it is

This hotel looks god when you enter the reception and bar area then you go to your room and that's when the problems start. The lift buttons are very worn then you get to the room and it is outdated and very basic. Broken electrical sockets, the bathroom shower you have to hold the shower head as the wall where it should be attached is broken and the water was just hot enough to shower. The beds were very old and the mattress was terrible to sleep on. The balcony was just big enough for two chairs and nothing else. The remotes for the postage stamp sized TV and air con were available from reception but I never bothered with them as we were only staying a couple of days. The roof terrace floored with wood and some of the spares were missing making it very difficult to walk on, I don't know if the bar up there ever opened as I only went up there once and it was closed as for the pool I never looked for it. The only good thing about this hotel was the breakfast as there was good variety of foods and it was warm and enjoyable.

Myself and my daughter arrived quite late,first impressions, quite modern, the guy on reception spoke good fluent English and was very pleasant, they gave us a double room by mistake but it was rectified in minutes, with no issues. Hotel has a lift which is a bonus If you have problems with mobility. The restaurant Is downstairs though, not sure if the lift does. The rooms are what they say on the tin, bed, bathroom and balcony, our balcony was tiny , just fitted 2 chairs with no room to manoeuvre . Small TV, which we couldn't get to work but it was no loss. Aircon was free too. Very dated but clean. Towels are provided and room service. The breakfast is buffet and we must say very tasty! There is a bar, didn't see it open during our 3 night stay. There is 5 floors in the hotel, we worked it out to around 20 rooms per floor, which confused us as the pool area is very small, a few wicker sofas on back wall and 5! Yes 5 sunbeds!! I'm sure during the hot season there's going to be some brawling! Location is great, everything is 2 minutes away from the hotel. The walls in the room are VERY thin , you hear every noise from other rooms, must say it gave us a giggle at times but the noise can get too much when you are trying to sleep. Street noise you don't hear when the balcony door is shut. It's very much party town , which we weren't aware of until we arrived and took an evening stroll, being offered "charlie" and weed on every corner can be off putting, some are quite intimidating! If you go around the town and shops , be prepared to be harassed at every shop by sellers and they DONT take no for an answer. The beach is beautiful ! The sand is like crushed pebbles though, so bare foot is quite uncomfortable.

A severely outdated and poorly maintained hotel. The room was very dark, it only had a light on the wall, with stained glass cover. Only one nightstand, instead of two. Bathroom door was distroyed by floodings and the main door had been broken and poorly repaired. Mold on the walls. The elevator had a very dim light and the writing on the buttons was worn off so you could not tell which button to press. The TV and AC remotes were only distributed upon request. No hairdryer in the room and they requested a deposit when we borrowed one from the reception. Breakfast and dinner buffet was basic, water was available in 20 l bottles and tasted bad. Avoid if possible.

Where do i start Dirty hotel in back streets it needs gutting hard uncomfortable beds long dark hairs and stains on the sheets tv hanging off wall no kettle nothing and as for the balcony just 2 chairs didnt even unpack suitcases was there less than hour paid for another place to stay more suited for drunken hen or stag do

We got a lovely room 111small balcony extending to a big one next to it. The dining area was a dark and not much food choice. The staff where all brilliant cleaners were very nice lady’s too. our rooms cleaned everyday with clean towels. Pool very small. Location was brilliant!
