Translated from Spanish
Positive experience:
The welcome and support received from Neus (reception) were exceptional, we could not have asked for better.
Pros:
- The balcony with table and chairs is worth the reservation and the experience by itself. Wonderful.
- Exceptional location: quiet area and sea right outside the house.
- Spacious and well-furnished house.
- Area full of restaurants, supermarkets, bars, shops, and other services.
- Perfect welcome from Neus.
Unfortunately, there were some unpleasant inconveniences that we did not expect, especially for the price we paid:
- No hand soap in the bathroom (let alone shower gel or shampoo).
- No Wifi (neither free nor paid): it was communicated on the website, and we actually bought internet for 2 devices, but unfortunately, the signal in the apartment was nonexistent and we were refunded. However, it posed a great challenge for us since we had planned to work on the computer from the apartment for several days, and we had to find other solutions.
Highly recommended for a relaxing vacation, not for remote working.

Fantastic experience:
Excellent apartments for families or groups of friends, the sea is across the road, close to the train station, supermarkets and small shops, near the bus station. On the downside, it can be noisier at night due to tourists.

Positive experience: We spent 9 days in the Elvira Apartment in the high season from July 23rd to July 31st, 2023. Our apartment was on the 5th floor of the building, door 5A. I'll start with the positives of this apartment as there will be more negatives. Please be aware that I travel a lot around the world, I've stopped in all different hotels and apartments, and I always give positive and objective feedback. Apartment Elvira - positive: - beautiful view of the sea during the day and night from the living room/ breathtaking. Great location - literally 2 minutes to the beach and in the heart of bars, cafes, and shops. Very friendly and helpful receptionist - Neus. Thank you for all your advice. Amazing view on Fireworks Festival. - fresh towels and fresh bedding once a week. And unfortunately, that's all about the positive aspects. The negative aspects and very important are: - NO AIR CONDITIONING IN THE ROOMS AND THE ENTIRE BUILDING! At night at a temperature of 28-30 °C, and with the windows and terrace door open, it is impossible to sleep. A person sweats right after a fresh shower. The building is old, there is a restaurant at the bottom of the building, whose ventilation shaft (from restaurant kitchen) is located on the walls of the Elviras building, which causes constant noise in the back bedroom. The view from the bedrooms not overlooking the sea - terrifying. You can wave to the neighbors on the opposite side of the wall, you can hear your neighbors talking, their dog barking, you can inhale their cigarette/ splif smoke most of the night. I have to mention that it is impossible to sleep in the back bedrooms with the window closed, because otherwise, it is very hot and stuffy in that bedroom without A/C. Another cons - the car park - none - if you are lucky, you can find free car park space about 200 meters away from the apartment (if you are lucky). Otherwise, you may park on the road and pay for your parking space. Wifi - no free WiFi in the rooms. If you want to have WiFi in your apartment, you have to pay for tickets for 1 day/€5 - 3 days/€10 - 7 days/€15. *Important to know!!!!! .....one ticket for each device.☝ There is free wifi at the reception downstairs (reception is very small and very hot - no A/C). You have to provide your own toilet paper (not an issue), and you have to take your rubbish to the bin behind the buildings (about 200 meters away from the apartment). No toaster and no microwave. There is no proper ventilation in the bathroom. So I'm very sorry for my feedback, but I really do think Elvira Apartments needs massive improvement because, compared to the neighboring apartments, it stands out very much and stopped in the 90s. I still can't believe there is no AC in the rooms. These days, it is a STANDARD for A/C in the rooms with high temperatures outside.
Fantastic experience: Eat at the Texas.. brilliant...great service and food
Positive experience:
If you don't urgently need chatter and noise, but just a simple accommodation, you can sit here in the house on the balcony, use your small kitchen and look at the sea with a glass of red wine, or just go eat deliciously in the town. Everything is in the immediate vicinity of 'Elvira'.

It's a shame about the heat without air conditioning... a shame about the foreign German Muslim people without masks... otherwise it's a privileged location... and above all, a wonderful woman, Neus, at reception...

Positive experience:
Very well-located studio, old but functional. Some noise in the mornings, but bearable. Enough kitchen utensils. The shower could be adjusted very well and the burners worked fine, unlike almost all places. The receptionist, Neus, is by far the best. 10/5 stars. Very friendly and attentive.

Very well located, but not renovated

Fantastic experience:
Apartment facing the sea, no air conditioning, but not too hot inside, clean, reception outside of hours in a few minutes, thank you.
Translated from Italiano
Positive experience:
Quiet and right on the beach. Very simple but reasonably equipped. There's a lack of feminine intuition in the decor.
Translated from Deutsch
Fantastic experience:
The family room with two bedrooms is very spacious! Clean. The sea view from the balcony is wonderful! Somehow, the ventilation system is designed in such a way that there is a slight draft, which eliminates the need for air conditioning. The only thing I missed was a double bed, as the twin beds slide apart on the tiled floor.

Great price/quality ratio. There is everything necessary for living. Frontline. Cheap and nice :) Last year, parking around was free. Too bad it's a bit far to walk for croissants in the morning, but that's minor :)

Clean and functional apartment. It should be noted that the lady at the reception is very nice and gives good advice. She does her job like in a tourist office.
Translated from French
Positive experience: Our little studio apartment was perfect for the 2 of us, nothing fancy everything you needed was there
Positive experience: The hostess is very friendly and arranges many things for you at Elvira. However, you should not expect your room to be cleaned regularly or that new towels will be provided. For this, you need to clean your room yourself and inform the reception when you want new towels; normally this happens once a week at Elvira. Additionally, there are no cleaning supplies or toilet paper in the rooms, these need to be purchased by yourself. The location is great, 25 meters from the beach. The supermarket and laundromat are around the corner. If there is doubt about a studio or an apartment, take the apartment; the studios do not light well and are next to an air shaft from a restaurant, which makes the studio become very hot and cramped.
Positive experience:
Nice place to go. The beach in front.

Fantastic experience:
The windows overlook the waterfront, in the morning and evening it’s nice to have coffee and listen to the waves, the rooms are clean, in the kitchen there’s a refrigerator, stove, oven, and all the necessary utensils. Cozy living room with a table, television, and sofa. There are tablecloths, you can park near the hotel, and there is also a paid parking lot not far away.
