"I was only there for one night, but if I was going back to Alicante I would definitely stay here again. I thought the room was a good size for a European hotel. AC worked, great water pressure in the shower, two different people I spoke to at the front desk were both very nice. If you appreciate older buildings, you will love the stairs and elevator. OK, my view was of another building which is partly boarded up, but..."

"While not a five star hotel I am giving it five stars because if the friendly an dhwlpful staff, the great central location and the clean and comfortable rooms. It's location is convenient for many restaurants and bars as well as the beach and promenade. The castle is in walking distance as is the central market and the shuttle bus from the airport drops you minutes away from the hotel. Perfect for a short break in this lovely town."

"The room was clean, nice personnel, good location in the center on Explanada, very close to the beach. Loud though because of the active traffic right in front the window. Minuses are pillows - very low, had to ask for additional set."
