Sentido Castell de Mar

The staff was nice, and the hotel is located in a great location. The common areas of the hotel were well kept and appealing. There were daily activities and entertainment.

We were placed in rooms situated right off a common area and the marble decor did not help the noise we heard in our rooms late in the evening from other guests and nightly entertainment and early in the mornings from the dining area that was next door! Air conditioning did not work in one of the two rooms...and there was a yellow substance on the toilet seat and feces in the toilet despite a seal on the toilet that said "Disinfected"! We requested to move rooms after the first night and the staff was friendly and found us other rooms that were much quieter. One of the second two rooms had a reoccurring, intermittant sewage odor. The housekeeping staff were sent to spray something in the shower drain and a drain vent in the bathroom floor that helped. ALERT TO ALL NON-SMOKERS...do not even try to enjoy the pool or patio breakfast area unless you want to passively smoke dozens of cigarettes from everyone around you!!! The cigarette smoke was a huge negative and there are no separate areas for smokers and non-smokers at any of the outdoor areas so you are basically stuck inside unless you enjoy second-hand smoke.
