The hotel is conveniently located and a few rooms have a sea view. Very, very clairaudient and facilities really bad. two stars. But the cleanliness left a lot to be desired and the service was excellent. Breakfast was okay (but not more), but at nine o'clock usually not yet finished. The restaurants in the town are really good. twelve units offer a large selection. The Cara coke is very good. Good and cheap. The two beaches, the specified are an absolute joke. A playground and box is usually larger. Easy walking distance (about 30 minutes) or bus (5.10 €round trip for two persons) to Cala moon rago drive. One of the most beautiful beaches of Majorca. Based on the price we can recommend this Hostal Varadero. Because it's really good, was cheap and the people made an effort too. But if you want luxury, with two stars expected is here wrong.

Hotelier's comment

Jan,

I am sorry we couldn´t please you as much as you would´ve expected. We are a small Hostal, the rooms are not very big and maybe the walls are not that well soundproofed...but we have quieter rooms as well, especially the rooms located in our seccond block. About the bus prices...i wish i could help but it is really not under my control...i personally recommend to rent a car to our clients because i know the transport is not one of the best things in Mallorca. About the beaches...they don´t belong to us...they are public, it is true they are a bit small and not one of the nicest...but they are only 5 minutes far away...walking...we only recommend them when the people ask us which are the closest...there are lots a beaches...with much better views...at only 5 min driving and 15 walking...there are plenty of options.

About the stars...it is not one of our goals...we have created a new concept....Hostal Deluxe...which means we intend to be a small, friendly, familiary, very clean hostal...but with honorable conditions.
I would say at least 3 stars...i respect your opinion though.
I think as well that if you get informed better at the recepcion you can organize your vacation much better.

My best regards.
