Location. It was 5 min drive from an event inwas attendingBeds are comfy

The door would get stuck while opening

The train station across the street, nice swimming pool, not too crowded.The staff is also very nice and helpful.

Location

Room was never cleaned during our stay (4 days)

Nice breakfast. Beautiful rooms, pool, place for the car.

It was ok!

The boys from the reception were very helpful and kind. The room was perfect with kitchen and a lot of space

I chose this hotel due to the location close to the train station and golf courses we were playing. Most of the staff were very courteous and helpful, but one we encountered was rude to my husband.

The duvets we pulled from the closet were filthy dirty. I left them spread out on the bed in hope that they would give us clean ones when they cleaned the room. Instead they were just folded up and put on the end of the bed. Took them to the front desk and sweet Anna exchanged them for clean ones. The sliding glass door was broken and did not lock so that did not give us a secure feeling. Also the swimming pool is in need of serious repair. Many of the mosaic tiles were loose or missing. One afternoon we were entertained by a young child diving with a mask and piling up all the scattered tiles on the side of the pool that she was retrieving from the bottom. The breakfast was awful. Scrambled eggs always cold, runny and filled with egg shells.

Nice room. Friendly staff. Free parking around the corner. 15 min walk to the coast.

Bathroom was a bit dated, but fine and had all you need. It would have been helpful to have a dishrack & teatowels.

Very nice rooms. Breakfast wonderful.Close to to the train station.Good shop near

Non

Great service and the facilities are very good. Breakfast was also very good.

The pool was a little small and needed maintenance

Loved everything about this hotel,Spacious room,lovely staff, nice pool…

Perfect location for a Malaga sightseeing trip with sea vacation scent. Good rooms, easy access, breakfast included, parking garage for 10.-€/day, 24-hour reception with helpful staff, train station in front (2.70 € to Malaga center)

Not disadvantage, just the reality - location is not on the beach, if you seek such.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and spacious room.

The shower soap dispenser was empty, The batteries in the air conditioning remote were flat, I swapped them with the TV remote. The walls are thin so it's easy to be disturbed by people talking or TV in the room next door.

Great location, next to the train station - - easy access to other locations such as the Malaga airport or Torremolinos. Clean facilities, sea view rooms, and heated swimming pool.In general, I enjoyed it the hotel!

Can't think of something significant, but if someone has problems walking steep hills towards the hotel from Benalmadena downtown, that can be a bit challenging.

Perfect time in Vive Costa Azul! We enjoyed our time here, as the location was easily accessible. The cleanliness of the hotel was next level, the room was just perfect - large and comfortable with a good view of the pool and the sea! The breakfast selection was quite decent and really tasty. Definitely 10/10!

The "free" parking that is advertised on Booking is not existant. There is a hotel parking which you can pay 10EUR per night, or as suggested by the receptionist, use the free parking right accross the street (which is basically parking for the Metro station).

Location was next to the train station so it was very easy to explore the costa del sol The staff are very friendly and helpful Breakfast was all freshly prepared and very enjoyable

The only downside was the bar by the pool was not open but could still use the inside one

Nice hotel near the city center of Benalmadena and the beach. Fair breakfast. Garage and public parking. Pool onsite.

Great location, especially for transport links. Peaceful and quiet. The apartment was immaculate and it had so many more amenities than I realised it would! Staff were helpful and friendly. I’d absolutely stay again.

The main foyer smelt a bit like drains and also for a brief period my bathroom did. The body wash/soap dispenser in the shower was empty and I had run out of toiletries as I was staying near the end of my stay in Spain.

Staff were helpful. Room was clean. Large balcony though sadly weather not good enough to be used.Perfectly placed for transport into Malaga and around with train station just across the road. Place definitely has potential.

Some areas could do with an upgrade. Our bathroom left quite a bit to be desired - sink was cracked and sealant around the bath very discoloured. Curtains needed repairing.

Good breakfast, although not a lot of options. Friendly staff. Next to train station, easy to reach Malaga and other coastal towns.

Bathrooms could be nicer. There is a parking just in front of the hotel, but it is supposed to be for the train station. I am not sure how easy it is to park in the high season.

Very friendly staff. Super clean en very wel maintained . Breakfast enough choices.
