I slept like a log at Arena Lodge! Had all the facilities needed (including laundry) plus handy location near supermarket, restaurants and the cinema. Tony was super friendly and helpful, with good tips on things to do in town. Will definitely stay again next time I'm in Palmy.

This was much nicer than expected. We stayed in a 3 bdrm unit - two couples. It was very roomy, had an excellent kitchen including stove, a backyard BBQ, comfortable bedrooms/beds/bathrooms. Note that laundry is not in the unit - description on Expedia is a little misleading - but free washer, reasonable price on dryiing.

Good service, helpful staff, no street noise, only one fault, the fold down seat in the shower area falls all by itself when in the shower could be painful if hit by it.

Good location, Comfortable stay
Comfortable stay for 2 nights. Short 10 minute walk into the town centre. Metal frame Queen bed was not as comfortable as a full bed base and mattress - it looked like it was a removable option for alternative configuration in the room. It was also difficult to get right under the shower rose in the shower over spa bath due to the contour of the base of the spa bath. Otherwise the units were spacious and well provisioned
