This would have been a fabulous hotel in 1980… sadly it has declined and not been updated… the photographs are long out of date. The kitchen and dining table were dirty, the fixtures and fittings were dated and the decaying dead bird on the balcony sort of summed our stay up.

not too bad

it was okay but when I was looking for a hotel in Nerva, this one popped up. So I booked. Little did I know it was not in Nerva but in Maro, so that was a little deceiving, had to change a few things right there, was of course no way to look for something in Nerva directly, so we stayed

Ok for the price but needs some attention

We didn't expect much for the price and were pleased with the size of room and ammenities. Nice little kitchen. Toilet and shower ok. Good air conditioning but not in bedroom. We brought a fan with us. Convenient for beach and taxis available to Nerja for less than 10 euros. However, we had no fresh towels all week. No clothes horse to dry clothes. Pool is grotty with clumps of hair from drain. Bar below is awful for evening meals. Parking is difficult too. We did enjoy our stay. Just accept basic conditions.

Parking was difficult. Only half a dozen spaces outside. Public car park opposite, but due to fiesta we were turned away! Literally nowhere to park. Had to visit somewhere else and come back later. No warning from hotel about potential parking problems either. Rooms were dated. Poor decor, minimal crockery erc too

Good location for the beaches at Maro and quieter than Nerja. Maro village is nice and we had good evening meals there. The pueblo needs to crack down on the very obvious drug dealing in the streets. Our rooms were nice with a generous balcony. It was clean. But -you need to take your own things for making coffee _ there is a hob and a microwave -when we turned the air con, the fuse blew. _the front door had been left wide open one afternoon when we got back. We were unable to close it after us. We were there off season. Hopefully things are better organised during high season. If so, it would be avery nice place to stay.

This property was ok. Had to move apartments because the blinds did not close in my first room, when I changed room the shower in this apartment was honestly ridiculous. Soaked the whole bathroom. Reported all the issues, nothing got sorted during my 4 night stay. There were no utensils, all of the plates and cutlery were left in the drying rack. The bottom of the bath was dirty. Didn’t go up to the pool area as I spent my time in Nerja. But other than these issues, it was ok.

Poor Hotel Experience - Cannot Recommend

I stayed at this hotel in Nerja, and while the location is convenient and close to Nerja Cueva, that’s where the positives end. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this establishment to anyone. The hotel falls drastically short on the most basic hospitality standards. The cleanliness was absolutely unacceptable - rooms were not properly cleaned, and hygiene standards were far below what any guest should expect. The overall comfort level was extremely poor, making it difficult to relax or get a good night’s sleep. Despite the decent location that offers easy access to local attractions, the fundamental issues with cleanliness, comfort, and hygiene make this hotel unsuitable for any traveler. These are not minor inconveniences but serious deficiencies that significantly impact the guest experience. I would strongly advise looking for alternative accommodation in the area. There are certainly better options available that maintain proper standards of cleanliness and comfort. Save yourself the disappointment and choose elsewhere. ​

Give this a hard pass

Where to start? Check in was less than smooth. It required multiple WhatsApp messages and phone calls. If you decide to stay here and don’t have WhatsApp, download before going! We knew it was off season so were prepared for fewer amenities, no biggie for us. The hotel itself is a throw back in time. Some might feel nostalgia going back to a simpler era. Quaint even. We booked a 2 bed with a kitchenette. The beds were ok but not somewhere you’d like to curl up in and sip your morning coffee. That’s probably a good thing because you couldn’t make coffee in the room! We overlooked the fact that the room was dirty and that there were cigarette butts out on the spacious balcony, because the balcony was probably the highlight of the room. As it was off season and unusually cool, we tried putting the heat on to take the edge off. Unfortunately, that blew a breaker which meant no heat, no tv (not that you go to Spain for the tv), and no power to what passed for a kitchenette. Quick call to the people we spoke with to check us in and we’re assured a technician would be out. Two days later they said the technician had been. Unfortunately all they did was flip the breaker so when we turned the heat on, we immediately lost it again! We spent the time there with no heat or ability to use the kitchen. We love this area and charmed by the old Spanish decor. But….if you want a comfortable and relaxing stay, it’s NOT here!

Wir waren vom 15.09.2024 bis Ende September in dem Hotel. Alles hat ohne Probleme funktioniert. Wir hatten eine WhatsApp-Nummer, unter der wir uns informieren konnten. Wir haben z.B. am letzten Tag um eine Verlängerung des Check out gebeten, weil wir am Abend einen Flug hatten und ohne Probleme wurde uns das gegen einen kleinen Aufpreis erlaubt. Wir erhielten einen Link und bezahlten sofort. Der Eingang zum Hotel ist mit einem Code versehen, ebenso die Eingänge zu den Zimmern. Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Terrasse (006) und wir waren wirklich sehr zufrieden. Das Parken war immer kostenlos. Strände insgesamt sehr schön, nur geht es die ganze Zeit bergab. Zum Strand von Maro kann man mit dem Auto fahren. Strände so gemütlich, und schön. Wenn jemand Ruhe mag, ist es zu empfehlen. Nach Nerja sind es etwa 7 Minuten mit dem Auto, aber man muss lange nach einem Parkplatz suchen. Die Parkplätze sind kostenlos. Das Einzige, was ich mir wünschte, wäre, dass die Küche besser ausgestattet wäre, aber wir haben es hinbekommen. Grüße aus Aachen

Enkelt men rent och fint. Minus för bokning inte funkade. - Länken som skickades hade inget innehåll. - De angav fel datum för incheckning -Debmissade att ge information om kod till dörren - att informera att hotellet hade två olika byggnader. När jag pratade med emergency contact skyllde de de på hotels.com och Expedia. Men informationen hade jag fått direkt från hotellet. Alla småsaker eom kunde lösas när jag väl fick kontakt. Men det drar ner betyget. Detta är en hotell med incheckning över mail så det är viktigt att all information ges direkt. Maro är supermysigt ock hotellet ligger perfekt. Ställ alla frågor här ovan så du vet du har all information från start. Skön semester!

Hotel de paso correcto, caro para lo que es,...

La recepcionista muy bien la habitacion: correcta. Pedí cama matrimonio pero no hubo suerte. Para mi las camas, almohadas y sábanas no eran confortables. No había jabón ni en el lavabo, ni en la ducha y ya no había personal en recepción para pedirlos. Muy mal puesto que la habitación no estaba disponible hasta más tarde de las 14h. Desde las 12h que se deja, tienen tiempo suficiente para revisar y reponer.
