Dinner
The daily menus are acknowledged for their affordability and good portion sizes, contributing to a satisfying culinary experience. Diners also appreciate the option to enjoy meals on the terrace, accommodating guests with pets, although some note the inconvenience of not being able to leave dogs in the room during dinner times.

Despite this minor drawback, the overall sentiment toward the dinners at Arha Villa de Suances - Antiguo Albatros remains overwhelmingly positive with many guests highlighting it as a delightful part of their visit.
Rooms
While some rooms have been described as renovated and fine, many others seem to lack modern amenities such as air conditioning and they suffer from poor ventilation and a musty smell.

The decor is generally seen as outdated and maintenance problems such as rust, broken walls and insufficient lighting have been noted. The cleanliness of the rooms varies with some guests pointing out that their rooms were not as clean as they expected. Additionally, the small size of the televisions and uncomfortable mattresses were recurring concerns.
Despite these drawbacks, the hotel makes up for it, in part with its nice facade and friendly staff. However, there is a clear consensus that the rooms and facilities would benefit greatly from a thorough modernization to improve the guest experience.
