I had a read a few reviews about this hotel so I was not really expecting a lot. However when we arrive the lobby looked respectable and I was hoping the rooms would be the same. We walked into the room and straight back out, the kitchen was tiny (pointless) and you would never use it and there was people painting the balcony. I asked the receptionist if we could have a better room and they told me we would have to pay an extra 30 euros per night for a sea view room, no way I would pay that per night in that hotel. They did change our room later on that day and yes it was a little better but still not that great, the beds were sooo bad, very uncomfortable and 2 singles when we asked for a double..they were like pull out beds (well they felt like it). Sometimes you would get this awful smell (which I think came from the restaurant downstairs)..not nice.
Also if you are a young group I would not use this hotel as we invited 4 friends up to get changed at ours in the afternoon one day and we got told by the receptionist that if we didn't stop talking they would call the police??? what in the world that was about I do not know..we were just getting changed and were not being load..plus it was the middle of the day!!
All in all I was very disappointed by this hotel, do not get me wrong I had a great holiday and we made the most out of the hotel..however we did not once use the pool..it did not look too appealing!
If you are looking to stay here then make sure it is only for short breaks and you are not bothered too much about the rooms...one thing that was nice were the bathrooms..new and clean.
I have wrote loads about this hotel as I wish someone had before I booked mine! I would not stay there again and you learn from your mistakes!! (Michelle, Bolton, UK)

This hotel is located right on the beach in the centre of marbella surrounded by excellent restaurants and beaches.
HOWEVER- the bathroom was smelly, the room needed decoration(although ours was a pre decoration- they were gradually working their way thru the hotel) There was no hot water the night we arrived and the beds were so uncomfortable i coudl barely walk for an hour after waking up!!
That said once we complained things were sorted quite quickly! The staff were very pleasant and the balcony wonderful!
For the price & location it was fine!

Hi, we bought only one night of stay at this location and it was more than enough. The pictures that appear on all websites have honestly nothing to do with the reality of the hotel.....the kitchen is 30 years old and the air conditioning does not work. The biggest problem was the smell...it smelled sooooo badddd....as a true PUBLIC TOILLETE and we both went t sleep with somethin covering our noses.
The next morning we asked for the manager and he came up with excuses that it is not his fault but it is the town´s fault that the smell comes into the building!? I asked him for a refund and he said that I had to do it through Expedia because we bought it on the web site of Expedia!!!! Upon our return we contacted Expedia and Expedia had to conatct the hotel but after 45 Days they returned our 58 Euros bck to my credit card. Thanks for reading.

This affordable, medium-sized aparthotel is located right on the beach/boardwalk in beautiful Marbella, Spain. The room was basic, and the beds could be better, but it was fine for people on a budget, and the bathroom seemed newly remodeled. Our room had a balcony with chairs from which we could watch the sunset (a sideways view). The front desk staff were quite friendly and very helpful, and they speak multiple languages. Several restaurants, shopping areas, the Old Town and its plaza, and of course the beach were all within walking distance. Within a few hours driving distance one can visit the white sugar cube villages of Zaharra, Casares, etc., as well as Gibraltar, the Alhambra in Grenada, or Tarifa, where you can catch the ferry to Morocco. The hotel is an easy drive from the airport in Malaga, and we usally found free parking on the street after a trip or two around the block near the hotel (there are also nearby public garages that were somewhat expensive). I would recommend this hotel for people who want to enjoy the Costa del Sol without breaking the bank.

Ottima posizione e appartamenti grandi

Siamo stati in un appartamento con una camera che era molto spazioso. Aveva una cucina separata e un'enorme area soggiorno che aveva anche un divano letto. Se potete permettervelo, vi consiglio le camere con vista mare. La nostra vista era meravigliosa e avevamo un bel balcone attorno a tutta la camera. La cosa migliore dell'albergo è la sua posizione. È proprio sulla spiaggia e ci sono un sacco di ristoranti e bar proprio sulla porta. È a soli dieci minuti dal centro storico di Marbella che è davvero carino. Il personale è stato molto disponibile quindi, nel complesso, credo che questo Aparthotel abbia un ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo.
