Basic room, good lcation for beach front.

My husband and I stayed in room 110 in September 2018. There was plenty of off road parking and the hostal was situated next to the beach front. The room had two double beds in it, a wardrobe, a fridge and a desk and bedside table. There was air conditioning and the bathroom looked like it had not long been refurbished and the shower was good. There weren't any tea/coffee facilities. I would describe the room as tired but habitable. The hostal had its own restaurant but there were plenty within a short walking distance. The wifi was good. Unexpectedly we needed to stay another night and as our room was free we were offered it at a price of approx. 35 euros. However when we came to check out the next day we were told by a different member of staff that the room was 49 euros and that the other girl had made a mistake. To be honest we would probably have one elsewhere for that price.

Avoid Hostal Alba

I arranged a pre paid booking, but on check in they asked how I was going to pay. I confirmed it was pre paid, but they said the credit card used had not worked. I paid again and contacted Hotels.com to sort out. They confirmed it was pre paid successfully and contacted the hostal Alba. They refused to discuss the matter, so I have to go through my credit card to get a refund on my second payment. While the hostal was in a great location, comfortable & clean I suggest you avoid it. The staff during this issue were also less than helpful. The address on the booking confirmation was wrong, so satnav couldn't find it. The confirmation also said tea & coffee in room, but on arrival I was told it was only if you'd booked B & B. You couldn't book B & B through hotels.com. The last thing I thought deserved a mention before I booked, was the fact there is a construction site next door. While they started at 8.30am, I realise it could have been worse but I still expected more of a lie in on holiday.

Aged building

Excellent position on nice promenade and district . Our room ( two double beds) was very basic with one wardrobe ,a table and one small bedside drawer . Toiletries are mini bottles of shower gel .A kettle is available ( apparently on request ) . The en-suite is quite new . More than two people would be a squeeze . The daily maid was excellent .The hostals own car park was a bonus .

Hyvä palvelu ja sijainti

Pieni hotelli, jossa saapumisesta lähtien mukava palvelu. Loistava sijainti, vain 10 m rannalle, joka on todella hyvä. Siisti ja varsin hyväkuntoinen. Sopiva heille, jotka eivät halua suuren hotellin kolkkoa tunnelmaa ja pitkiä käytäviä.
