Good breakfast and location. Walls in our room 2024 all marked up and dirty, which let the room down and was an immediate disappointment. Entrance, room and breakfast / pool area smart but rest of hotel line hallways, stairs etc are dated.

Place was in good enough condition, clean and there was a bottle of water for each guests which was a great thing because we arrived at 2am. Replies back very quick to any queries and requests. This is not a hotel but a flat with kitchen. There was power outage twice which was resolved quickly.

5/5 - Excellent

Alicante is nice and easy city to get around. If you're not a beach bum you would still enjoy a long weekend there with its multitude of fine restaurants and bars to choose from.

5/5 - Excellent

Lovely place to visit. Highly recommend a trip up to the castle - I walked up although there is lift access. Also walking along the coast of San Juan Playa. Get the C-6 bus from the airport in to centre 3.85euro
