Advantages: location, comfort, relaxed atmosphere Disadvantages: no hotel car park
We spent two nights here last August during our second holiday in Asturias ("we" being my husband and myself and our 3 children then aged 5,11 and 12) and had a fantastic time. The idea was to see a bit of Gijon before heading into the hills for a week's self-catering in a former shepherd's home now converted and with all mod-cons. In fact it was the owner of the cottage-rental company we used who suggested this hotel.
As it turned out we wished we had spent longer in Gijon as it is a super city with plenty to see and do. The hotel Asturias makes a great base as it is an easy stroll to the beaches, marina, headland, old fishing quarter, aquarium, museums and shops. Set in the Plaza Mayor (Main Square) we had wondered about noise at night from neighbouring bars but I can honestly say it was not a problem - and our rooms had balconies ...

Introduction
"Abba" was the band's third album, but only their second release outside Sweden. It was released in the spring of 1975 and I recall getting it as a Christmas gift that year when I was 11.
I had bypassed their first album - back then I only really got albums at birthdays and Christmas and I think my brief love affair with the Rubettes overtook my desire to hear more of Abba, despite the fact I loved "Waterloo" from the minute I heard them sing it at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974.
That changed in the summer of 1975 when I heard "I Do I Do I Do I Do" and "SOS".
It was these singles that drew me towards this album and to this day I can still recall the beautifully photographed sleeve and bright yellow label. My vinyl copy has long since gone but I still have the album on CD, in the remastered edition which I am ...

Advantages: Could not find any Disadvantages: A streessful, sickening, waste of time and money
February 2009. Playa Caleta is rated a 4 star. Sunwing Travel advertises it as a Sunwing Club Exclusive...whatever that means? We would call it the ?Club Torture?
The hotel has a spacious, open-concept lobby on two levels. The lobby and the rest of the hotel are filled with cigarette smoke. When we asked the front desk staff if there was any non-smoking public areas, they answered with giggles as they held their lit cigarettes below the counter. This is supposed to be a family hotel; if you or your children can survive the second-hand smoke that saturates everything, you will still have a family.
Buses idled right in front of the open hotel entrance, filling the lobby with carbon monoxide. As we discovered, vehicles in Cuba have no exhaust standards. From scooters to buses, they all spew black or blue smoke.
