My partner and I did a cheap teletext deal to get away for a week. Bearing in mind the price we paid, I reckon we just about got the level of accommodation we paid for.

My partner and I booked via MY TRAVEL and were told the Santa Maria had been refurbished last year. The foyer is fine. The corridors are like being at school, dark, dingy and long with grotty decor. The rooms are worse, just like a very old Butlins and ve... read more
