Pros:

Es war eine sehr überfüllte und unsichere Umgebung. Nachts, wenn es keinen Sicherheitsdienst gab, trieben sich Betrunkene und unpassende Familien in der Hotellobby herum und es war so laut, dass man nicht schlafen konnte.

Pros:

A long was up hill from Torremolinos Town shops, bars. and the beach. No Air Con just a single ceiling fan. A fridge but no Kettle to make a hot drink. A maid came in once in seven days to change the towels. No cleaners came in at all. It is only staffed from 10AM till 8PM

Ok for the price
Pros:

Located conveniently to the main tourist street of Sam Miguel. Beach further at least 20 mins. The rooms are huge with balcony but looking straight into old buildings and disused old swimming pool. Walls paper thin...can hear everything.

Pros:

Camera pulita.
Molto vicina al centro.
Avere la colazione sarebbe stato il top, ma a poco metri c'è un bar dove si può fare un'ottima colazione locale.

Pros:

Atención muy buena tanto por la chica y por el chico de Recepción. Hab muy limpia y la ducha iba genial. No tiene A/C pero está muy bien ventilado.

Si tuviese que poner alguna pega, diría que el váter no paraba de echar agua. Pero vamos, lo arreglamos sobre la marcha nosotros mismos.

Hemos estado muy agusto.
