We stayed 3 nights October 2024. 2 of us sharing a studio. As others have previously commented I wouldn't choose this for a main family holiday however they are perfectly suitable for either groups on birthdays, hens etc or even people who aren't too fussy. It's quite interesting as I've just read one review giving it zero and I've read others giving it all the stars so what I would say is people's perceptions are so different. Let me start by explaining we do stay in nice places we even have a David Lloyd gym membership back in the UK so yes you would expect our standards to be high however this is BENIDORM not Paris and your paying peanuts so expectations need to be lower. I have to say I quite liked the "70s quirky vibe to it" and some of the guest reviews are examining the rooms like they were conducting a hotel inspection! Our room was clean and had all the basics required. Unlike other reviewers I don't start taking photos of missing tiles and dated furniture as that is not important to me, the complex is clearly an old one however has lots of positives. It's in a good walking location for all the bars and cafes and strip, the balcony is huge! You could easily have all your friends round for drinks before you go out. There is a bar at the hotel which is OK. The female with blonde hair and glasses who served us regularly is very friendly and approachable. Nice they have a basket near reception area with sun creams people left so this saved us money. Negatives are we had to stump up 50 euros each as deposit in case of any damage or loss of keys which for some of the group meant their whole spending money 💰 whilst I understand why they do this it could be per room rather than per person. Noise, I could hear next door alarm clock and his snoring! Walls are very thin. Kettle didn't turn off so we just waited and guessed when done. Beds are OK not particularly comfy but passable for a sleep. No fresh towel in a 4 day stay. No extra toilet roll you have to buy that also, no soap or shower gel so you do need to ensure you pack some bits or buy them when you get here. Also quite a bit of shade sitting outside due to all high rises around so one day we sat drinking outside thinking it was cold and damp and once we walked to beach we had sunshine so I guess due to positioning of the hotel it's not a good sun trap. All in all would recommend as a budget price 2 star type stay especially if your here for parties as it won't bother you about the noise.

We came to this hotel for a hen party trip in Benidorm, decent hotel for hen do but wouldn’t stay for any longer than 3 nights! Hotel has no air con and it gets really hot in the rooms 🥵 Pool area is ok, not many sun beds and some of them are broken, pool is very deep at both ends so not suitable for children but there is a little kids pool as well. Bar and cafe in hotel lobby is great, soo cheap and food is decent for a quick snack. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms are very dated, hotel asks for 50 euros per person as a safety deposit and there was 4 of us in the room, so 200 euros!! They could probably replace the whole room for 200 based on how dated it was. Definitely could do with a refresh as it feels like you have gone back in time. Sofa beds rock hard but obviously you’re not bothered after a drink on a hen do. Great place cheap and cheerful for a hen do, however it’s the no air con that puts me off returning as it was very uncomfortable.
