NH Alicante
Comfy bed. Disappointed that there was no tea/ coffee facilities in room and it was quite noisy, lots of banging in the morning next to my room. Still, all in all I had a pleasant stay and it served its purpose.

Very chaotic breakfast situation when breakfast was only served on level E - made it feel like a school canteen- slightly stressful

Odyssey Rooms
Hotel was clean, bright fresh and had a lovely big family room. Was perfectly located in the old town, near the beach and the esplanade. The reception staff were so welcoming and friendly.

The room was pleasant and clean, the view from the balcony was looking onto another building but a road in between. Nice size of balcony. The bathroom was nicely decorated and the shower was strong and warm.
