The property is on the seafront at Benajarafe next to a busy main road. There is a car park behind the hostal- no charge and easy to access. The room was spotlessly clean with a good en-suite and a powerful shower. I stayed for a night on my way to the airport - absolutely fine for this, but not for a week's holiday. The staff were very pleasant and welcoming.

Very nice family pension, clean room with balcony overseeing the seashore and hotel pool, good lights and air condition, clean and practical bathroom. Very polite staff, very early checkout was no priblem, hotel has private parking. The bar next to the pension is loveley, almost exclusively Spanish guests, excellent homemade food (large variety of tapas!) at very moderate cost
