Sol Costa Daurada

"Location- excellent for theme park. 10-15 min walk to beach and main "strip" Atmosphere - ok. We had an early arrival and couldnt check in until 2pm which was a bit of a faff upacking cases in reception area and getting changed in loos so kids could use pool. Was a long few hours until we could relax. Rooms- basic need updated and parts in disrepair. but overall fine. Balcony area didnt feel overly sturdy. Wasnt comfortable kids being out there. Qe was level 5. Could do with rack for.drying towells and costumes. Value - felt value for money. But had this been booked in summer holidays when considerbaly dearer would have been very disapointed. Cleanliness- cleaners are fab. Fresh towells and beds made daily. Hotel and grounds kept very well. Noise - the hotel accepts huge groups of children/adults so meal times was very very niosy. Felt very out of place and kids felt uneasy. Service- staff at meal times was quick to take plates away but was friendly and clearly have alot to do. Food was always topped up and hot. Getting into dining area ok. but the system is slow. Paper room enevelope seems bizzare. As all party has to be together. My partner was stopped from entering as he was 5 mins behind us. Lady was pretty rude imfact.I had to leave kids at table to show lady the piece of paper. Surely a band for each board basis would be better. Reception staff polite amd helpful. Amenties- small shop 5 mins away to grab basics like water etc. If your looking to eat out its about a 15 min walk. For families - personally i wouldnt return. Kids facilites basic and small. One pool table/airhockey outside. Very small park. Football/basketball area very small. Couldnt comment on animation team as didnt get involved. Pool area isnt the biggest. And would feel very overcrowded in peak season. If your kids want to have some fun in water. This hotel isnt for you. Rings/lilos balls etc. Are only permitted in smaller shallow end. So its chaos and not enough room. No jumping in allowed. No fun at all. The whistle will be blown. Some kids were asked to leave pool area for jumping in. Seemed a bit miserable. Had we known there would be so many large groups of kids and adults on trips at this hotel we defiantly wouldnt have came. Very loud in rooms and We felt like we were in a school canteen amd impsoing on there stay here. Wasnt quite the holiday experience were used to."
