El Flamenco

X

Great location. Very basic but clean. No mirror in room , no hairdryer. But overall very good

I booked this property but I was assigned by the front desk to the sister property across the street. Hotel Playa because supposedly it was quieter. El Flamenco seems to attract young, loud, party oriented travelers. This is a family owned group of properties including a restaurant. They seem to save Hotel Playa rooms (about7-8 rooms) for guests’ overflow This review is for Hotel Playa.Both properties are old and very run down. The one thing Hotel Playa has going for it is the location facing the beach. If you like to sleep with the sound of waves this is for you and it’s a few steps to the water. Now, the property includes access to a pool/lounge that starts playing very loud club music as early as 11 am till well after midnight. This is a pool/bar open to anyone and not just hotel guests , 20 year olds drinking , dancing and flirting poolside which is fine but not ok if you want to relax or take your kids to the pool. Not child friendly. As for the room, tiny old TV oddly placed, rusty doors, walls with holes and stains, some towels are old and raggedy. Dark room, front desk not responsive to request to fix a broken light. Musty/humid small throughout but I guess to be expected in an old building across from the sea. The one good thing : AC worked. I asked about a refrigerator as the property’s picture showed one. I was told there were no fridges, the pics were from the previous hotel management which is deceiving. Poor price/quality. Awful.
