Perfect choice when planning on staying in the old town. Central to just about everything. Good food. We travelled with JET2 on half board. The drinks with our evening meal were very affordable. We requested room to be set up with 3 single beds and this was all in order on arrival. We were on the first floor which was ok but suggest ask for higher floor. Normally do this but was too bothered about the 3 beds being in place! The staff were pleasant and very efficient plus some had been there for a very long time. The roof top terrace was much better than we had expected and nicer than the photo's. Quite busy but noted extra sunbeds were stacked up so there if you wanted one. The lifts were tiny. We got the knack of them eventually. The pillows were very lumpy indeed. Perhaps new ones needed soon.....Everything else was brilliant. Will recommend.

Stayed 27/4/24-4/5. First time at this hotel and stayed all inclusive. Traveled by taxi and was dropped off at the top of a pedestrian only area, at, the Avenida De Ruzafa where there is a Taxi rank and about 5-10 mins walk from the hotel. Arrived about 13.30 and checked in at a small reception area. This only took about 10 mins as it was not busy. Incidentally, as I booked direct with the hotel, it was pay on arrival. After given the usual basic hotel info and directions to my room via the lifts, I then joined a couple of people waiting, which took ages as the (2) lifts were slow and small, with a 4 persons limit which, really would only be 2 plus luggage in reality. For someone in a wheelchair it might be a tight squeeze. I was lucky as my room was on the 1st floor. The room was very clean and reasonably large with a double bed, plenty of wardrobe hangers,storage space,safe, small fridge flat screen tv. The tv was positioned a bit high up, this was because there was a once connecting door which was now the luggage storage facility. The bathroom had a twin headed shower which had good pressure and good hot water, with plenty of shower gel, the wash basin had some nice complimentary accessories,also a hairdryer. Leading off from the bedroom was a large balcony with a table and 2 chairs. This was overlooking the pedestrianised crossroad area. This was ideal for people watching (and I saw some sights). However, it should be noted that there was a school for 6-16yo which the senior pupils seemed to gather right outside my window at about 07.40 and were noisy until 08.00, (alright I was young once) the other thing I should mention, which I didn't notice till the 1st May was about 02.45 the bin men briefly came as well as the street washer,and they were noisy. Now for me, the Bar and Restaurant were only a short walk down stairs,which given how slow the lifts were, was a blessing. As for the bar, it was fairly small but was well stocked with branded drinks, 1 Estrella and 1 Old English cider pump. The service was very good. The bar was situated in a well appointed lounge/entertainment area,although, depending where you were seated, the small stage area could be obstructed by pillars. There was also a small dance area. Onto the restaurant it had plenty of seating with tables for 2,4,8 persons (thou this could be adjusted) they were clean with plate cloth,cutlery,napkin a drinks glass. The food was varied, although maybe a bit repetitive, having said that I personally had no trouble at not being too repetitive. It was of a good quality,fresh and warm to hot(depending on the timing) there was a microwave, but, I never saw anyone use it. The food was constantly topped up. Yes the staff did clear the tables quickly but not as though they were rushing you. If I had a slight problem, it was the first time of using the restaurant, I was asked what drink I would like, but was not asked again till two days later,I expect if I had asked I could have got a drink. Overall the restaurant was very clean. Now, there was an information area with hotel events and also a separate area were the Reps use with more info. You had to go to the 6th floor to reach a well equipped Gym and a sauna, small lounge and bar (which was not open when I was there even though it was indicated it would be as from 1st May). Up a few steps was the rooftop small pool with sun loungers,then still on the rooftop down some steps to another sun terrace. Now I think you had to be quick to get a lounger as they were all taken up. The views were brilliant and worth the effort of the slow lifts. Now, the negative was you had to go back down to the bar on the 1st floor for drinks as the top bar was shut. Overall this Hotel was in an excellent position close to all amenities, 5-10 mins walk to a beautiful beach 20 mins plus walk to the strip. Very clean Hotel, friendly staff from reception to cleaners and anyone in-between. Its mainly for adults only. Would I use this hotel again Yes TIPS: Get a balcony room, get one on the 1st or 2nd floor.
