“NOT IN BEJA”

First and foremost this hotel is not in Beja although it comes up on Tripadvisor as number one in the "best value" hotels in Beja.

First and foremost this hotel is not in Beja although it comes up on Tripadvisor as number one in the "best value" hotels in Beja. It's actually about 60 kms away and is not even in the Beja district. Tripadvisor needs to address this. The hotel is quite remote, in a small village and next to a beautiful lake with a man made sandy beach. It was a convent, converted 20 years ago and I don't think any work has been done since. It is in dire need of refurbishment. Everything is a bit "tired". The minimal staff were friendly and helpful, especially the lovely lady serving breakfast. Our room was large with two single beds with quite hard mattresses. The bathroom was large but with a bath and a shower over the bath which would not be suitable for someone with mobility problems. Lots of toiletries though, not in plastic bottles either! Breakfast was OK and plentiful. Parking was easy. The pool area was quite dated, the sun beds very uncomfortable and the pool liner needs replacing or cleaning. I found it quite expensive and would not recommend it, especially as it's not in Beja! Oh, and by the way, our room had a flat screen TV.

First, to be clear, I'm sure the hotel fills all the legal construction and area norms for a 4 star hotel. But it was my 60:th birthday stay and dinner and we were expecting more than a buffet dinner and services that close at eight pm. All staff were young (no crime) but inexperienced so although they worked hard and were quite nice they just couldn't deliver the 'feeling' and tranquility of a 4-star hotel. And while wi-fi is free, it's only for one device per person and it's slow - we are gadget people so between us two we had one computer (for photos and videos), our two phones, three tablets and two smartwatches... it just felt a bit 'cheapskate' throughout, but maybe it's because this is a low season.
