DianoMarina a beautiful seaside resort in Northern Italy, which we have been lucky enough to recently visit. However, while the resort was delightful enough the hotel was far from luxurious.
The brochure tells you: A FAMILY RUN HOTEL IN THE FAMILY FOR FIFTY (+) YEARS:
The brochure means; a fifty-three bed roomed hotel with just a handful of staff, who are family related. Staff were not particularly friendly or did they go out of their way to help in anyway.

We booked the HOTEL PERLA MARINA, in the town of NERJA, through bancotel.com. This is a Spanish based travel site whereby you purchase 'cheques' for 50 euros each. Depending on the hotel, season etc, a room costs between 1-3 cheques per night. This can mean savings of over 60% in some cases.
Being the intrepid bargain hunter (some would say tight-fisted git) that I am, I managed to book a series of 3 and 4 star hotels for 50 euros. This hotel was no exception.
