Basic
If you need a cheap bed for the night and are not going to spend any length of time there it will.meet your needs.If you need more than that avoid this hotel . It is cheap but you have to pay extra for the tv ,Wi-Fi, hairdryer, iron. The windows and doors don't fit properly so there is constant drafts. The apartment kitchens are very sparsely equipped you could make a cup of coffee and some beans on toast but not much more. The location and design of this aparthotel are good and it has the potential to be so much better. REMEMBER THAT YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

Lovely, clean hotel
We stayed her for 4 nights over Easter. The place and apartment was lovely. Nice size, lovely balcony and well kitted out kitchen. The only thing, would be to have a double bed, as we requested a Double room. Great facilities, Swimming pool, table tennis, fuseball, pool table and nice poolside bar. Everywhere was spotless, and well maintained. We had breakfast every morning (as it was included), which was ok,but I wouldn't pay €7 for it where there are other places to eat on the strip much cheaper and better food. We went to the Sunday market, which was organised by the hotel. The Wifi was ok, shame there is a surcharge. All in all a good place to stay, and would go back.

Good location but purely functional
The reception staff for the hotel and apartments were very helpful but very little was included in the price for the apartments. Neither wifi in the apartments nor TV was included (only the few Spanish channels but no films to speak of) so if the weather isn't great, you may end up spending more to either go out or stay in with the TV. It was clean and comfortable but there were no bowls or washing up facilities which I would have expected. It was fine for a budget trip but if you want a little more comfort I would try elsewhere.

rattling room
There is a new supermarket being built next door so we had massive noise for a minimum of 10 hours a day including Saturday. Our room shook all the time in bed early morning our windows rattled and we had to keep our windows and doors closed. We spent all day out to get away from the noise. Apart from that the staff were lovely but the bar was very expensive so we didnt drink there at night.

We zijn geplaatst aan de schaduwzijde; voor de zonzijde moesten we €13,- per nacht bijbetalen. Er was door jullie aangegeven dat er shampoo en doucheschuim zou zijn; dit was echter alleen voor de eerste dag. Prima was dat ze (bijna) elke dag het bed dekte, en het 2x p wk. verschoonde en 3x per week waren er schone handdoeken.

Hotel para extranjeros
Típics apartamentos para extrajeros. Correctos para ellos, con un par de cosas a destacar negativamente: desayuno infecto, pobre, básico, mínimo, etc.....y los canales de la TV de pago, sólo gratis la 1, Antena 3, uno francés, un inglés y uno alemán! Jajaja me piden dinero para poder ver la 2, ó La Secta, o Clan Tv!,,, en fin, ah, y wifi 1 hora al día.....esto ya no se lleva. Primera impresión en recepción bastante mala y seca, luego más amables y mejor, pero la primera impresión .....

En general están bien, pero ruidosos, anticuados
Son apartamentos que en líneas generales están bien, pero dista mucho la imagen que se ve en internet con lo que luego encuentras al llegar. Deberían reformarlos porque están muy anticuados. Nosotros no teníamos plato de microondas siquiera, el wifi era de pago... cosas que deberían cuidar un poco más para dar mayor servicio a los clientes. La calle trasera, donde daba la habitación, es de paso y hay mucho ruido de coches, sobre todo los fines de semana.

Poco mantenimiento y mal servicio en habitaciones
El primer día prepararon la habitacion para dos en vez de para tres Tuve que bajar a la 1 de la noche a por sabanas para hacerme la cama.Y luego tuve que volver a por toallas.No te cambian las toallas pero te las mezclan y ya no sabíamos de quien era cada una.Los enchufes estaban superpuestos y cuando tirabas para desenchufar se salian de la parez.La luz de encima de la mesa se encendia y apagaba y no podiamos cenar agusto.Los colchones son duros y en el sofa cama las tablillas del colchon se caen.Ademas se llevaron los sobres de gel empezados y no los repusieron y cuando llegamos por la noche nos tuvimos que duchar solo con agua.Desastre total.

Per il prezzo, carino!
L'hotel è carino, nel complesso è un po' vecchio, ma tenuto abbastanza bene. Il personale è gentile, ma quando abbiamo chiesto informazioni è stato piuttosto sbrigativo, ad esempio ci siamo fermati per chiedere di qualche locale in cui passare la serata. La receptionist che era al telefono, senza interrompere la telefonata, ci ha indicato un pub senza chiederci cosa cercassimo, ed ha ripreso la telefonata senza chiederci se avessimo bisogno di altro. Gli appartamenti hanno terrazzino, angolo cottura e bagno. Avevamo chiesto un letto matrimoniale, ma ci sono stati dati due letti singoli, che abbiamo unito, così non era molto comodo. Nelle ore serali c'era pochissima acqua calda, qualche volta abbiamo dovuto fare la doccia con l'acqua fredda. I servizi ci sono tutti, ma tutti a pagamento! per il phon, la cassaforte, ventilatore, per ogni canale tv, per stampare le carte d'imbarco (1 euro a foglio!) ...insomma qualsiasi cosa ha un costo extra. IL wi fi è gratuito per un'ora al giorno nella hall e a pagamento nelle camere (7 euro al giorno oppure 3 euro per 3 ore) e non era proprio velocissimo. La colazione è nella media, più per chi ama il salato, il cuoco è sempre pronto a preparare uova, salsicce, bacon... A circa 10 minuti a piedi ci sono i locali sul lungo mare, per cui alla sera si può stare nei pressi dell'hotel. Difronte all'hotel c'è la farmacia, ed è vicino ai supermercati Lidl e Iperdino. Alla fine abbiamo avuto quello per cui abbiamo pagato. Quindi qualità-prezzo ok

Slitet och behov av en renovering, men ok ändå.
Slitet och i behov av en renovering, men trevlig personal. Lite på sidan om men ändå endast fem minuters promenad till "strandgatan" och ungefär samma avstånd till hamnen i "gamla stan". Om Scandic i Sverige generellt får 6 av 10, ger jag detta hotell 2-3.
