negative:
Only an average breakfast
Although some guests of Residencial Marés thought that the breakfast was great, others believe that it lacks variety and is just OK. If you are planning to stay at this property for multiple days, the breakfast might get a little tired after a while.

Beds are hard
If you don't enjoy hard mattresses, you might have trouble sleeping at this hotel. A few guests have mentioned that the mattresses are overly firm and, therefore, somewhat uncomfortable.
negative:
Lacks a lift
There is no lift at this hotel, so you might end up climbing some stairs with your luggage upon arrival. This is only an issue if you are located on one of the top floors, however, as the building isn't very big, featuring only 24 rooms.
