Positive Reviews
positive:
Excellent Location
Guests said that this hotel could not have been more perfectly located in Torremolinos, at just a hop and a skip from the main square, and only a ten to fifteen minute walk away from the beach. They added that it was only a short stroll away from the train station, and, with the hotel located directly on a main bus route, guests said that it was easy to visit those local attractions that were farther afield. Guests also commented that they were delighted by the good range of shops, restaurants and bars just steps away.
positive:
Faultless Staff

Negative Reviews
negative:
Dated and Smelly
Lodged in an older, dated building, guests have commented that this hotel could use an upgrade. They have also complained that better maintenance is needed, not least to remove the strong smells of cat urine and smoke in the common areas, which are unpleasant.
negative:
Noise Levels
Guests said that the central area around the hotel could become quite loud, with traffic incessantly flowing.
negative:
No Lift
Guests reported that there were no rooms on the ground floor at this hotel, and no lift, which may make it a difficult climb for the elderly and mobility impaired.
