Hotel Cortijo

Clean, well-run hotel. Good continental breakfast. Lovely stylish tiled bathroom. Warm and clean rooms. Good value. Second row back from beach.

No sea view and room was a little on small size but would still recommend this hotel.

I liked the staff best. Wasn't there for long, so can't say much about it. The hotel was good for the price and really near the very pleasant beach. The place reminded me of Worthing on the south coast of England where my parents retired to! Gentile but slightly gone to seed, nice and quiet, conservative. Very flat, Worthing.

I'm sure it was a one-off but I didn't like the central heating being jammed on all night in my room. Slept in bed nearest the window with the window open, which was ok. I also didn't like the curtains being of such thin material. Felt I could be seen straight through them! The breakfast was all stuff in sealed cellophane packages ,even the croissant! Still, it was edible enough, and at that cheap price who should grumble?

they recommended the restaurant/cafe we used for supper - very Spanish & nice - PS we were only pasing through Laredo !

Non

Room was acceptable but unnecessarily hot. Ridiculous window shutter system and flimsy curtains may be ideal for Spanish afternoon siestas, but not much use at night, given no air conditioning.

We didn't like Laredo. The old part is lovely but very small and not much in it. The new part is like Clacton. Not somewhere we'll return to.
