10/10 Excellent
"The accommodation was very clean as was the whole site. Beds comfortable 😀 The food in restaurant was good and reasonably priced. The pool was lovely, not too cold (we stayed the few days of October) the kids loved the slide and it provided them entertainment for ages. The kids club was great and staff do a lot of activities with the kids. Very enjoyable for them. We will absolutely be back. The only slight negatives was that when making the booking with hotels.com it stated as part of a deal that there were 2 passes for each adult for the spa but on arrival the hotel confirmed this was not included. If it shows as included i would double check this with the property directly first prior to booking so you don’t miss out. The property is also right by the motorway so there is road noise but it didn’t really bother us. We stayed 2 nights but would have been so happy coming for longer. Next time!"

"Hotel is an excellent base for torremolinos and surrounding area although immediate surroundings not particularly pleasing to the eye . Noise was low . Beds comfy . Brunch brilliant . Very chilled and relaxed hotel. Staff all very pleasant. Pool area slippy at times so be aware. Also note balcony’s are very close to each other . Safes available at low rate per day . 10 min in taxi from airport between 16-20 euro. Very convenient little supermarket next to hotel open until 3am if you need anything. Shops bars restaurants within easy walking flat distance 10 mins. Bus stop over the road 2-3 mins walk to nearby Benelmadina and also Fuengirola very cheap . Beach easy walk down steps, not so easy back up there is a lift . Taxi rank also 2-3 mins walk away and also very reasonably priced if you dont want to wait for the bus. Train station 10 min walk . Would I stay here again, absolutely yes. The hotel is very clean , good beds, showers, brunch and the location is great for exploring the area rather than the premium prices on the sea front . Good mix of people and great value for money ."

8/10 Good
"Overall, I had a very pleasant stay. The location is excellent, the staff was friendly and welcoming at check-in, and the room was lovel, the bathtub, in particular, was fantastic. A quick tip for future guests: the AC controls are integrated directly into the bedside headboard, which can be tricky to spot at first. My only frustration came after checkout. At arrival, the staff mentioned I was receiving an upgrade. When I entered the room, there was a bottle of champagne on ice, which naturally seemed like part of that upgrade. However, a couple of days after checking out, an unexpected charge appeared on my card, which I assume was for the bottle. Be mindful of in-room items even if an upgrade is offered, but otherwise, it's a solid hotel."
