Categories

Cleanliness
7.2
Mixed reports: several guests mention ants in sinks/desk and rust/paint loss in a bathtub, while others explicitly note clean rooms. Overall slightly below standard due to insect reports and isolated maintenance issues.
Service
8.7
Generally praised: multiple reviews highlight friendly, helpful staff, early access to facilities and attentive reception. A few mentions of unfriendly restaurant staff, but service overall is a clear strength.
Location
7.8
Mixed sentiment: convenient for certain attractions and public transport/tram for some guests, sea views and quiet for others; several complaints about distance from beaches, being set on a back alley or awkward access in a building.
Room Quality
7.6
Positives include comfortable beds, some rooms renovated and with terraces; negatives include missing mini-fridges/minibars, occasional worn furniture, curtain issues and dated fittings in some rooms.
Amenities
7.8
Strong points: large pool, free parking nearby, gym access and generally good facilities. Downsides: lack of in-room fridges/minibars reported repeatedly and some guests found pool/photos misleading.
Value for Money
8.2
Generally good value according to several guests (explicit 'Preis-Leistung TOP' and positive comments), though a few felt breakfasts or certain aspects did not justify price.
Food and Beverage
7.5
Breakfast receives praise in multiple reviews, but there are consistent complaints about buffet items missing/not replenished, an average hotel restaurant and an extra charge for breakfast noted by one guest.
Overall Experience
9.2
Majority of reviews are very positive: comfortable sleep, helpful staff, good pool and nice views for many guests; isolated very negative experiences (cancelled reservation, poor access) exist but do not dominate the overall sentiment.

Hyvä hotelli lyhyeen pysähtymiseen ennen varsinaiseen rantakohteeseen siirtymistä.
Pros:

Uima-altaassa pystyi oikeasti uimaan. Huone oli iso ja siisti. Aamupala oli monipuolinen.

Cons:

Aamupalalla kahvikupit olivat jatkuvasti lopussa, mutta muuten ei valittamista.

Quiet place to rest
Pros:

Very clean room, with all what you need.
Staff, all of them very professional.
Quiet area, as is not close of restaurants or bars.

Cons:

I thought that I would be closer from the Alicante (centre), even though by bus/tram will be only 10/15 minutes.

Przyjemny pobyt w urokliwym miejscu
Pros:

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja. Blisko do morza (mała, kameralna plaża w zatoczce niedaleko hotelu). Prywatny basen dla gości hotelowych (leżaki z parasolami, WC przy basenie). Codzienne sprzątanie w pokoju i wymiana ręczników. Siłownia dostępna dla gości hotelowych. Publiczny parking w okolicy Hotelu. Możliwość zaparkowania auta za darmo.
Przestronny balkon z wygodnym sznurkiem do suszenia ubrań/ręczników.

Cons:

Śniadanie w formie bufetu nas rozczarowało. Codziennie ten sam zestaw dań - większość z nich bez smaku. Na plus kawa z ekspresu oraz świerze pieczywo (bułki, rogaliki) i owoce.
Nie do końca doprana pościel - miała lekkie ślady zabrudzeń.
