“Lovely stay”

Small hotel with friendly staff and very clean. Nice pool area, average food in the restaurant but plenty of availability and clean. Rooms are very small and a twin/double is a tight squeeze with a child added in. I'm a great area across from the beach and on a long strip of shops, bars and restaurants. Would stay again.

“Great location”

The good Great breakfast Great location, near beach, shops, restaurants & bars. The not so good Probably the most uncomfortable bed I have slept in for a while, very hard. The pillows are the most uncomfortable I have ever slept on... no bounce, no softness.

“Medplaya Alba beach Benalmadena”

Ok hotel ,great location just across the road from the beach which we used most days ,pool was ok although busy ,clientele was mainly about pension age so not a place for youngsters ,felt like a saga holiday ,breakfast was the usual BnB buffet which was fine also a McDonald’s next door for the fussier eaters ,staff were friendly & helpful ,rooms were cleaned daily and balcony had great sea and mountain view’s ,a good selling point see accompanying photos ,only complaint was the lifts are tiny (2 people and a case) so getting back up to the 4th floor was not fun at busier times ie post breakfast ,Hotel was rebranded a while back and they are slowly raising the standard they had all new loungers for example and the bar area had been updated ,entertainment was nightly and free so all in all a nice break away
