Globales Playa Santa Ponsa

My wife and I stayed 5 nights this week. Arrived late. Charged €22 tax then shown to dinner hall where cling filmed plates of meat, salad etc. had been made up for late arrivals. This was quite nice. Next day we got safe key €46 which was a bit steep for 4 nights remaining. Room was ok. Double bed, dressing table, wardrobe, very small bathroom with small shower and air con. It did the job. We were on 4th floor above reception facing street with balcony. We went half board. Our biggest upset was no fridge in room! Every time we wanted a cold drink we had to go out and buy it. Normally we'd simply buy bottles of water and pop and keep freezing cold in fridge. Breakfast was ok, dinner on an evening was ok too. Very much the same as we get in any hotel we stay in at this rating. We never used pool as beach is so close with lovely breeze. It was 36° so would have melted round the pool. This hotel is perfectly located and was nice and quiet. As we walked around the area many hotels had gangs of young adults shouting and singing off their balconies and the area did get pretty rowdy after midnight. Police were called to sister hotel across the road when we were there. Obviously this isnt the hotels fault.

So far okay, the food is good, it could be a bit hotter at times, but it is tasty and has enough variety. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, there are also guests here, as everywhere in the world, who do not know how to behave. Plates overflowing and half goes back, terrible. The hotel and the entire area here are very much dominated by English and Czech guests. They really believe they can behave here like a bull in a china shop. Zero manners, neither please nor thank you towards the staff, and no respect towards other guests either. As soon as the bars (whether in the hotel or outside) open, the continuous drinking begins. The rooms are somewhat dated, partially patched up, doors stick and jam, and the furniture has scratches and dents. Room cleaning is not really thorough; we have had the same lint in the same spot for three days, toilet paper was not refilled, and the same dirt has been on the balcony for two days. The trash can was also not emptied despite daily tips left on the bed. We have now stopped that; no service, no tip. So we will definitely not be visiting this part of the island again. Otherwise, one can enjoy a nice stroll, walking is also possible if one stays away from the many pubs that are already filled with mostly drinking and shouting English guests shortly after opening.

Shocking shocking rip off avoid better hotels you will get a ground floor apartment looking to a wall
