    Pros +

    • Location and friendly staff.
    • Location was excellent, on a charming plaza by the sea.
    • Second stay at this hotel. Clean, comfortable, beautifully located and good value. We upgraded to a sea view and the balcony made a huge difference. Will go again!

    Cons -

    • The bar below was incredibly loud the night I was there. Also, no comforter inside the duvet.
    • Only issue was maybe a bit noisy in the evening but only because my balcony looked over a bar area, but that's Spain. I wasn't troubled by it.
    • Pillows and no cafe open in the morning

    10MałgorzataPosted on: 12-29-2024

    Very good lo action, clean room with nice heating option as well we Could see the sea from both balony. Great location, very nice around you have many possibilities to walk around along the sea or to the closest castle. Very nice. We did reservation last minute on the way, works very well.

    Its a simple smaller hotel, but very kind and helpful staff, perfect location at the beautiful playa Almuñecar. The room was clean and the price is very good. See you soon again!

    9LorrainePosted on: 11-20-2024

    Our superior room was large and bright with view as promised.

    Bar/cafe shut Tuesdays so no coffee available before leaving but alternative close by

    9GeraldinePosted on: 10-12-2024

    A very comfortable little hotel which was spotlessly clean throughout. It has a reasonably priced restaurant overlooking the beach. A most enjoyable stay.Highly recommend it.

    8JuliaPosted on: 9-27-2024

    The property is nice. Just on the beach and in front of the Rocks of San Cristobal (you will get the best views of Almuñecar from the top). The room was full of light and quite spacious. 2 balconies, one with the sea view. Staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. Many restaurants around. I loved my stay there!

    The only problem of this property is the problem with opening the doors. I had to spend at least 5 mins “murdering” the door handle before I could open the door to my room. I heard other tourists having the same issue.

    7DavidPosted on: 9-23-2024

    Paid extra for a sea view and glad we did, it made up for staying in a pretty average hotel.

    Its one of those buildings where everything echo's, doors slamming, a suitcase on the corridor sounds like a train going through a tunnel, first night we had drunks under our window until 03.00. No sign of any management.

    6DeborahPosted on: 9-23-2024

    great locstion to these and restaurants.

    the imformatiin said it had a balcony ,but the balcony was tiny with an A/C unit on it ,so you couldnt sit out there was only enough room for one person to stand on it .and no view.

    7LesleyPosted on: 9-22-2024

    Excellent locationComfortable bed

    No fridge or kettle in room. Restaurant/bar didn't open until lunchtime. Side view overlooking a villa, very close. No roller blind so had to keep shutter down.Some nights quite noisy, also a barking dog.Seafront rooms may be totally different .

    9PawelPosted on: 8-28-2024

    Great value for money -clean, recently renovated hotel very very close to the beach. Simple rooms, but clean and quiet, we sept very well.

    Nothing wrong. For this fee, great value

    9HolliPosted on: 5-23-2024

    Excellent location and the most friendly staff!

    Construction on the building and the section of the beach right out front . Loud and disruptive

    10AthenePosted on: 5-2-2024

    Great helpful staff, relaxed atmosphere, delicious food, incredible beach location and the occasional music event and roof top bar all make it one of my favorite hotels!

    Theres no elevator, but staff helped with my cases. Thats really all it's missing. Maybe a hot tub on the roof would be nice too but hardly necessary with the sea on the door step!

    8AngiePosted on: 12-20-2023

    Location is excellent and very near beach and restaurants

    No hairdryer in room but it was available from reception.

    9GrindrodPosted on: 12-2-2023

    Bed was soo comfy with a great pillow. Location was great.

    It was very basic but suited our trip for coming as a place to rest our heads and location right by where we needed to be.

    7RothwellPosted on: 10-29-2023

    Excellent location. No breakfast facilities, the cafeteria was not open until 12.00 even though the poster outside said 'open all day'. Room clean, staff helpful and friendly.

    It seemed more like a hostel, there were students staying who made a lot of noise partying in the corridor outside room at night and early in the morning when they were being woken up by loud knocking on their doors.
