Excellent Stay with AMAZING Amenities!
pool towels helpful staff daily cleaning
The hotel provided towels for the pool, which i liked. The staff were very helpful, as our safe wouldn't open on the first day. A man came to our room within an hour to fix it. That's what i call quick service. The hotel kept the rooms very clean, with daily room cleaning. I found this quite convenient.
The food at the restaurant was sometimes cold. The snack bar served cold toasted sandwiches, hard cold chicken nuggets, and hard cold chips. It wasn't enjoyable.
Dining

Breakfast had many options and tasted good. Plenty of food choices included various continental options. The dining area was spacious and well-kept. It was a good start to the day.
Location

The hotel's location was good, with beach access across the road. It was a 10-minute walk to the town center, though bars and restaurants were abundant along the beachfront. MÁLAGA AIRPORT is only 10 minutes away.
