Excellent Hostal in San Jose, Nijar, Spain

We did only stay the 1 x night as we were en-route from Alicante Airport to Fuengirola. We didn’t arrive until 18:45 but had received, by WhatsApp, clear and precise instructions on how to gain access to our room. The room was comfortable with a very nice sea view terrace. The shower was hot with a steady flow of water. Overall the room was great and the staff, that we met, were very friendly. We will certainly stay here again
The view from our terrace. Apologies for the poor quality pic but the sun was very strong

La femme de l'accueil était très sympathique et chaleureuse, pareil pour le reste du personnel. L'hôtel est vraiment agréable et apaisant avec une très belle vue sur la mer depuis la piscine. La chambre était original et confortable avec un petit balcon vue mer également. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour ici

Alto precio en agosto

Muchas escaleras para acceder a la habitacion. Sin ascensor. Explanada de tierra cerca para aparcar. Picina pequeña aunque util si hay viento en el mar. Ducha sin cortinas y balcon sin toldo. Aunque fuesemos en agisto creo que el precio es excesivo, la verdad.
