enjoyed our 3 nights, would go back but would go for a hotel with balcony room if staying longer.
Pros:

24 hour reception, friendly staff, daily room clean, fresh towels, modern, good shower/hairdryer, toiletries, handy location, free coffee machine.

Cons:

did not try the breakfast, or spend much time in the hotel sitting area, so perhaps a small bar and more relaxed sitting area would encourage guests to stay.

Perfect hotel to visit Alicante
Pros:

A great hotel in a perfect location to get around the main sights of the city on foot. Clean, comfortable rooms and excellent breakfast. Comfy beds for a good night's sleep. Would stay here again if in the area.

Great place to stay.
Pros:

Great location, right by the old town. Within walking distance to the beach, marina, castle and market, with a wide choice of bars and restaurants nearby.
Our room was clean and comfortable. The buffet breakfast had a good choice of hot and cold food, with plenty of fruit available. The free coffee and tea in the reception area was a nice touch.

Cons:

Unfortunately, there was quite a bit of water on the floor after showering as the shower floor probably wasn't angled enough to the plug - this is being very picky.

Gerne wieder (wenn man ein Zimmer mit richtigem Fenster bekommt)
Pros:

Tolle Lage, super zentral, direkt neben der Rambla. Leckeres Frühstück mit allem, was das Herz begehrt. Für ein Stadthotel große Zimmer.

Cons:

Zunächst hatten wir ein Zimmer ohne Ausblick. Das Fenster war mit Milchglasfolie beklebt und ging zu einem "Innenhof" mit Lüftungsgeräten. Am nächsten Tag konnten wir jedoch nach Nachfrage in ein anderes Zimmer wechseln.

Redelijk hotel, goede locatie. Prima verblijf, maar verwacht geen 5 sterren faciliteiten.
Pros:

De locatie, klantvriendelijkheid, lekker grote bedden, goede douche. Door de niet werkende airco kregen wij uiteindelijk een nieuwe kamer.

Cons:

Er zit geen raam in bepaalde kamers, dit is wel echt een vereiste. Luidruchtig als je aan de wegkant zit. Airco werkte niet in de kamer. Erg vochtig. Ruikt in de lobby lekker, maar in de gang en de kamers rook het niet fris.

Pros:

Excellent breakfast , very good location

Cons:

We were in room 102 on the first floor and although it was clean, it smelled very damp, I’m wondering if the extractor in the bathroom wasn’t working.
