Hacienda Minerva

This hotel has a beautiful location. The terrace where we had breakfast had a wonderful view. We also had a great meal in the restaurant at a reasonable price. However, several things were disappointing. The shower was too cold to use - would be OK in the summer, I’m sure. The breakfast was very poor value with no hot food. For the breakfast we paid £40 for 2 adults and 2 kids on Expedia - the hotel said it should have been €9 each but didn’t offer a refund, and that still would have been overpriced. There are a large number of cats around the place, which is cute but proved not terribly hygienic. The TV didn’t work. The shaving mirror in the bathroom was broken. These last 2 things are minor quibbles but for a “4 star” hotel with an 8.8 Expedia rating, it was not what I was expecting. Without those, I would booked a cheaper place. I will be wary of relying so much on ratings/stars in future.
