"Nice hotel in convenient location. Room was comfortable and clean."

Ocean House Costa del Sol by Grupotel

8/10 Good

"Location is very nice however rooms are a bit dated, with cracks in the flooring and we also found a pest in the room and the room was on fifth floor. Must admit the breakfast was excellent, do not know about other meals as we didn’t opted for those. Pool was nice but it does get overcrowded quickly. No parking at the hotel so beware if you are planning to rent a car. It is free parking on the streets but it is a very popular location so it is quite difficult to find.. if you do find a parking then at least for that day you won’t feel like taking the car out again which defeats the purpose of renting the car.. there are nearby car parks (best is the marina) but again not very practical -7/8 mins walk each way."
