Our stay at Hotel del Sol was enjoyable overall, marked by friendly service and a unique, quirky vibe. We particularly loved the ample breakfast selection and the heated pool, though the ongoing construction work did take away from the usual leisure experience in the pool area. The location was great for exploring nearby shops and cafes, but it requires a bit of a walk to reach the major tourist attractions.
