    I can't really put my finger on anything i didn't like about the Hotel it ticked all our boxes,

    There was three of us my wife ,Grandaughter and myself we found the staff friendly and there was no language barrier my Grandaughter enjoyed the pool and the Hotels location made it easy to travel around on Public Transport, We didn't sample the food unfortunately i am presently looking to book it again in October.

    The hotel bedrooms and bathrooms need updating. Breakfast was basic and food cold.

    Fantastic location near the beach. A well stocked shop, several bars and restaurants near by.

    Refrigerator is missing in the rooms and would rather like to have one king bed instead of placing two beds together.

    Good location, nice facilities - lobby area very nice and always fresh flowers in lobby. I did not have breakfast at the hotel.

    The pool was quite small and shady, however some may prefer this. With the beach only a step away it wasn’t too much of a problem.

    Amazing location, just a short walk from the Poniente Beach

    Could offer a small fridge in the room, not a massive issue, but perhaps a coffee maker or something like that would be nice too.

    Location is super, quiet and relaxing area, so close to the beach, theres enough cafes and restaurants for everyone breakfast service until 10.30 if u are a late riser, looking out the window at the surf rolling in the evening time, and the palm trees fluttering in the breeze, totally worth the money, you really feel calm and relaxed. The bedding was incredibly good and most comfortable, plenty of towels also in the bathroom and a little balcony to sit and enjoy the view.

    It would have been nice to have a fridge and kettle in the room. The sun beds are in shade virtually all day which is a shame as the pool is lovely.

    Small hotel, lovely staff and excellent beds! Very quiet location. Close to the beach. Plenty of restaurants and bars nearby.

    Breakfast was quite basic with minimal options. Whilst room was clean and comfortable it was one of the smallest rooms I've had in the area.

    Booked a last minute stay for a little getaway, lovely location by the beach away from the centre of Benidorm but had some great bars and restaurants within a 10 minute stroll. We chose it mainly for the parking option and upon arrival glad we did as there was no on street parking anywhere

    - staff could be more helpful and nice, sometimes we felt like we were doing a favor; - staff at breakfast could not or would not like to speak English which is very interesting, because learning the numbers from 0 to 9 are not difficult in any language, especially not for staff working with international guests (in contrary, we tried to speak spanish from zero in the end);

    - breakfast is good, sufficiantly abundant; - good location, clean and tidy

    We were disappointed to find the cena / evening meal had been discontinued this also had the effect that people no longer congregated in the garden bar area to chat before and after the meal hence the lack of ambience also there didn’t appear to be table service from the bar.

    We have visited the hotel many times over the years and found it comfortable and the ambiance was good it’s also pet friendly and has parking available essential in the busier times
