8/10 Very good

For an old hotel, not bad
There are good and not so good things about Telamar Resort. The bad, it's dated. And can be improved. Stayed 3 nights. The guards were stern but friendly, as they should be. The front desk personnel, Samuel, was fantastic. We stayed in the resort rooms near the pool. We had the garden view, and that was perfect. Quiet, lush, and green. Coffee in the morning on the terrace was lovely.
We asked for daily housekeeping (you get a choice at check in) but we didn't get it until our second day. No house phones in rooms, so if we needed change of towels or extra, we had to go to the front desk in another building. Even then, we could not get the extra towel (there were four of us but only three towels), as the front desk said housekeeping would bring it. Nope. We were fortunate to find a housekeeper in the building, and she kindly accommodated us.
The rooms being dated is not an issue. It was the duvet cover that was questionable. It was musty smelling, and I could only use the top sheet as a blanket. One of the beds (nearer to the toilet) had lost its spring that when you sleep on it, it feels as you could slide out of the bed in your sleep. The bathtub does not drain well. Four people showering one after another made it....interesting..
Loved that there was a refrigerator, coffee facilities, hairdryer, and safe. Beds were comfortable enough, but pillows (at least in our room) were great for side sleepers but not back sleepers. Too firm and high. One pillow per person.
