I feel like it was overpriced for the quality. I know that there is high demand for places to stay in El Medano, but still... toilet was broken, so it couldn't flush the water sometimes. Room inferior was rather old, I wouldn't care if at least bed was better and had a proper bed sheet, not the thin layer fabric of some kind. Also balcony doors were broken... Good thing was there was room service to clean a change towels. And the place is close to the beach.
Dirty, filthy. No facilities. Cold water for showers for over 4 days. Breakfast bar and room service don't exist as advertised on some web sites. Towels and sheets full of holes. Bare electric sockets in bathroom. Floors and surfaces not swept, mopped or wiped. Sink taps are disgusting with years of built-up spit, toothpaste and limescale. Staff are pleasant but owner is completely unresponsive to complaints.
It's a hostal. What do you want more? It's cheap and clean with breakfast included. Too bad there isn't any kitchenette but that's a personal choice I assume. Totally worthed. Walking distance beach el medano. Enjoy!
Clean, basic rooms with TV and bathroom. 3 minutes from the beach and bars, restaurants. Perfect for a cheap relaxing holiday in El Medano..
