“ Absolutely wonderful, during our stay of nearly a month at El Palo this became our ‘local.’ Having absolutely no Spanish was not a problem, the boys made us very welcome and really looked after us. They even gave us a going away party of sorts when we were leaving. Thank you again from Port Stephens Australia. ”
“ Terrific bar across from the football stadium. We only had coffees while waiting on the bus, but the staff was so friendly and welcoming. I'd go back if ever in the area. ”
