Clean rooms and very convenient city center but no parking and there is a club directly underneath the hotel so if you’re looking for a good nights rest, this is not the place to stay literally music until 5 AM in the morning but so loud that I couldn’t even hear my TV

Fantastic location right in the heart of Las Palmas. The receptionist who greeted us was super nice and helpful. Our room was very comfortable, with a large bed and nice decorative touches. The roof top patio is nice and has a kitchen for guest use. Our one complaint was the difficulty in finding parking, but the receptionist helped, providing us with their one parking spot for 9 Euro per night. We were very grateful that the one spot was available. This was our final night on the island, and we had a great and restful stay before our flights the next morning. Thank you!

Ruidoso. Habitación sucia

Mi habitación estaba sucia. Se escucha cada ruido del pasillo y de la puerta de entrada, que es un no parar. Lo de dejar la maleta es un problema. La terraza es genial.

Cactus Host Las Palmaa - Wenig Gutes, mehr Ungutes

TOP - Informationen zum (Self)Check In und Registrierungsablauf; großzügige Dachterasse mit unterschiedlichen Möbeln - sehr gut; künstlerische Gestaltung des Hosts - nett; Bettwäsche und Handtücher waren frisch gewaschen und sauber; Bett 1,40x2,00 war okay; TV im Zimmer; diverse Anlagen - TOP; Personal kaum gesehen/wahrgenommen; Im Grunde ruhige Lage des Hosts am Tage mit wenigen Metern zum Strand, Busstation, Kreuzfahrt-Terminal, Restaurants, Bars, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten; in der Nacht (23:00 bis 4:00) direkte Musikbeschallung (vor allem Bässe) von einem anliegenden Nacht Club; - größtes MINUS; Gäste des Clubs nach Ende sehr laut; andere Gäste des Hosts und Nachbarn laut wahrgenommen; Zimmer direkt neben Gemeinschaftsbad mit WC - ALLE Geräusche immer gehört; hellhöriges Gebäude, dünne Wände und Holztüren ohne jegliche Dämmung/Isolation; kaum Schlaf und Erholung gefunden; lauwarmes Wasser zum Duschen; schlechte Belüftung des warmen Zimmers durch kleine Luke zum Innenhof; reparaturbedürftige Elektrik; Reinigungsmittel (WC-Bürste) unbedingt auszutauschen; Küche vorhanden
