 Veramar I: Good value for money. by Roy Clough |
| Posted 27 March 2007 about a visit in March 2007 | Overall rating: 5.7 |
Booked these apts for a 3 day break and paid only £54 for the 3 nights for both of us.
LOCATION
The apts are located in a residential area but are only 5 minutes from the seafront. Large Supermarket only 3 minutes away. They are also only a good ten minutes walk from the train station.
We got a taxi to the apts from the train station for 5 euros as we were not sure where they were, but coming back we walked to the station, but as we only had the one case not a problem.
BUILDING
Differing types of rooms are available when booking, studios and rooms, so if you want self catering facilities make sure you do not book a studio.
You get a microwave, electric hob but no toaster, did not bother us as it is very cheap to eat out.
They do breakfast and dinner at 4 euro or 8 euros, tried the breakfast but only the once, far better deals on front, try S.A.M.S, excellent value.
In what is known a Fish Alley there are loads of places offering set menus and are excellent value, try Ciane Chinese restaurant 5.35 euro for 4 course meal.
ROOMS
The room was clean and towels were excellent, bed a bit hard though but minor issue.
Two lifts, but one was out of order, ensure you get a room on front however, we had 812 and gave us a sea view (inbetween the buildings that is) and overlooked pool.
Some rooms on the side I would not have wanted you look out onto an apartment block with washing hanging out.
Website showed pool area with sunbeds but there were no sunbeds round pool area and pool is surrounded by two grass areas not that inviting.
For what I paid no complaints, but it is not much more expensive to book a 3 or 4 star hotel to be honest, certainly on the site I used.
The train from Malaga airport is excellent, runs straight into Fuengirola, stops at various points on route and takes about 35 minutes, at just 1.80 euro and runs every 30 minutes, if you are going to use train though make sure you have some coins, as you buy ticket from a machine and also ensure you retain your ticket when arriving in Fuengirola, as you need it to get through barriers.
I would not have wanted to spend 7 nights here but for a 3 night break very good value, provided you get a good flight deal.
