For a somewhat budget hotel, this place really did the job! Room was smaller but very clean, modern, and functional. Hotel also allowed for an early check-in, and let us keep our bags at the property till the afternoon as we had a late bus. Would definitely recommend if you want something no frills for a few days in the beautiful Tarifa.

Very difficult to check-in as all done virtually. I tried to call two different numbers plus email without a response… eventually was able to contact the helpdesk via WhatsApp - which given I arrived at 2 PM as arranged on Hotels.com was frustrating. Rooms were tidy and in good condition. You’re given the main access code on check-in and then your room is unlocked (key provided).

The room was nice and clean! The staff super kind and helpful!☺️ The only problem is, if you wanna park close to the hotel is almost impossible. (There is a parking lot where you have to pay 1€/hour, which 10min walking distance from the hotel.)
