Hotel Joya

Reasonable location. About a ten minutes walk to old town. My partner and I stayed for 10 days. Hotel is a little tired but is spotless and maids clean daily. Majority of staff are incredibly polite and courteous, though the outside bar could do with more stock space. They spent most of the time going back to the main bar to get stuff as they did t have it in the hit. These guys run about like mad. Pool is nice but the area around the pool needs to be updated. Majority of the beds and brollies are broken. Plus there is two daily struggle for beds that even with a rule to not save beds it's not enforced and unless you get there at 9am when they open you won't get a bed. We did bed and breakfast, breakfast was basic but reasonable quality. Didn't try the cooked breakfast but I looked ok.

Lovely hotel in a quite area but easy to reach the beach, strip or old town within 10min walk. The staff are polite, generally speak Spanish but you can get by asking what you need too. The guy in the pool bar was fabulous, funny and friendly. Pool was lovely but quite deep. And the pool area open at 9am. Enough sunloungers are seating areas for everyone. Breakfast was basic but tasty. Not consistent though with the same foods. Walls are thin and you can hear peoples conversations Not too much of an issue and only woken up once when they came in. Great hotel and I would stay again.

Rooms clean, breakfast ok and staff good. Pool are ok but beds, cushions and parasols need replacing. The worst thing which personally I find intolerable is the smell of stale smoke everywhere, even outdoors. Smoking is permitted on the balconies and as a result the corridors smell of ashtrays. The outside bar area allows smoking too so smoke wafts over the pool 🤮. Also, people (British) reserve their beds first thing. It’s midday as I write this and more than half the beds have towels on them without a sign of any occupants. It’s annoying!
