HOVIMA Santa María

Very clean, great location. And staff all lovely,

No air conditioning in room, but reception arranged a mobile unit but it was very noisy, did help cool down the apartment.

The staff’s were helpful, the place was in very good location close to everything. Buffer has plenty of options & taste good.

The mattress needs turning & room was too warm to stay in.

Even thought not many options to choose from, the dinners were tasty. We didn’t have any alcohol in Restaurant, but we were told that it was free(for people who would be interested in this). Location is good. Staff are very friendly and helpful. The staff in restaurant are very attentive. My room didn’t have air con, but I felt the stand-up fan worked very well for us. My room was above the restaurant, facing the terrace dining area. At night, it was noise, but I felt the sliding door was very sound proof. Me and my husband were not disturbed by the noise outside.

WiFi was very bad for the first a few days, couldn’t connect from my room 131, sometimes only on balcony WiFi worked. However the night before check out and the check out day the WiFi suddenly started to connect. Don’t know why.

Very good location, beach is a 5-minute walk away, and it's nice to stroll along the promenade in the evening.

I booked a Comfort room. We were accommodated in an Economy room, which I did not choose and which was cheaper according to the hotel's official website. It was unpleasant, as the room did not match the photo on Booking.com.
