Hotel Riomar

Location was great.

No parking. Shower was very small Some lights did not work No view

The staff was accomodating (but only after a bit of coaxing). It was very central, making it easy to get to many of the highlights by foot. The rooms were air conditioned, which made at least the temperature of the room while trying to sleep ideal.

The breakfast was nothing special. Not much to offer vegans or vegetarians, so it made it not worth the price of whole breakfast, even if it were included in the room charge. The facilites were more or less sanitary, but they were old and there was mold all over the bathroom. There was also a terrible rotting smell coming from the plumbing. We were unaware of the type of businesses surrounding the hotels location, and were taken by surprise when all of the party people who had gathered in the surrounding area to be so loud, that it kept us from sleep until 5 am. The following day, the hotel staff moved us from the 1st floor to the 3rd floor which was a minimal improvement. Point is, don´t book here if you want good if any sleep. There are DOZENS of bars in the immediate area, and while it is a central location, it is also at the very epicenter of the late-night scene. The building is old and not well-insulated, making everything outside very audible. Also, plan to not find a parking spot. The parking is only public parking directly in front of the hotel, and the spots are limited. This made our stay all the more that unpleasant, even though we were told in advance that parking was not guaranteed.
