On our first day of arriving there was no were to sit to eat and we were told to leave and come back at the end of food service by which time nothing was left. The food left our whole party with an upset stomach... not too mention the food wasnt even fit to feed a dog! The staff made... More

Should have had a 4 night stay in the Alegria, but closed thankfully and moved to Santa Monica. The lowest point was the food, not a good choice but you won't go hungry. The drink on the other hand was great, been to other cheap hotels where they scrimp on measures or limit how many glasses you can have, which... More

If you don't expect to much then you won't be disappointed. Desperately in need of a full refurb. You get the feeling the hotel is just,about staying in business. Wouldnt stay again but ok for the price. Pool is freezing and shaded most of the day. 2 star accommodation at a bargain price.

I've decided to write a review because some of the things that people have put on here are just an utter lie, like it's not close to the beach? It's down the road turn left and down a hill, if you can't walk that, then you're obese. The guy behind the bar works over 12 hours a day, the whole... More

Me and a few of my friends stayed here in July 2012. I've actually avoided coming on here as I didn't want to see (even a photo) of this hell hole ever again! But I think it's time to spread the word to everybody - don't book here! I know it's a 2* and I really wasn't expecting the Ritz,... More

Had to walk 400m to Santa Monica, arrived and the hotel sign was hanging off by the entrance. This was just the start.... More
