Reviews for Apartamentos Chinasol
Review 1:design of bathroom especially shower. it was impossible not to get water on the floor while showering
Review 2:location, price, staff, apartment was very comfortable
Review 3:The building is a 'Towering Inferno' waiting to happen. I don't know how in the E.U. this place is allowed to exist. 10 Floors above the garage and 2 floor reception and one, only one staircase from the top floor of the building which has no fire doors, no fire 'stops'. There is no way to get all the guests out of the building if the building is full and there is a fire below.
Review 4:Having a kitchen
Review 5:We have stayed at the Chinasol Apartments, quite a few times now, and the Staff, Service, Cleanliness, have always been Excelent, and we will be staying there again, we go twice or three times a year. Stev & Ann Watson
Review 6:Rather far from the bus station. For people traveling without a car and with luggage/children the walk can be a bit much, especially if the weather is inclement (happens rarely though:)
Review 7:Value for money, wonderful sea views. Kitchenette is a bonus.
Review 8:WiFi needs improvement. We just managed to get adequate internet access in the lobby downstairs.
Review 9:Very clean and functional. Wish we had stayed much longer A perfect holiday destination and value for money.
Review 10:The app. of chinasol are old. (But clean) and there was no watercooker, coffeemachine or magnetron available.
Review 11:I went this trip to different places and I think Almuñécar was the best ! This app. had a very good bed. (My back didn't hurt) and it was also quiet in the building.
Review 12:You could only get wi-fi in the lobby and it wasn't a great connection.
Review 13:Cheap, easy to book, easy to check-in. No faff and the pool wasn't too bad either.
Review 14:Occasional electric shocks from self catering equipment.
Review 15:Great town, accommodation in a great location, staff really helpful and very friendly. These apartments are not luxurious. However, the location is perfect, the staff are helpful and friendly, the whole place was spotless and it made for a very relaxing holiday.
Review 16:Shabby The wifi 'hotspot' in the communal area is 4 old chairs near reception & usually covered in bored teenagers! Connectivity poor! Shouldn't advertise this as a facility
Review 17:Good location! Very close to beach! Very clean!
Review 18:You have to wait for the elevator for the long time, be cause there are a lot of apartments.
Review 19:Very comfortable room, beautiful view from the balcony, good place for the light-sleepers, like me, be cause wallls are very thick and you can't hear your neightbours. I asked for the room on the lower floor and I was given such room! it was very pleasant. They have a good big pool and the beach is just across the street.
Review 20:needs refurb, large impersonal1970s block. husband got an electric shock from bedroom light which blew as he plugged it in.
Review 21:location good, good size apartment, reasonable price
Review 22:kitchen was poorly equipped 15 mins to boil a small pan of water. A small kettle would have been a lot more cost efficient. Only1 small knife to cut veg or bread
Review 23:plenty of very hot water
Review 24:Bed not comfortable, not the pillow. 3 of the 4 elevators were out of service.
Review 25:Excellent view along the length of the beach. Also liked that there was a full bath.
Review 26:Unstable internet in cafe. Terrible noice by domino players, but "in Rome you have to do what the Romans do". TV in room had its own mind as to when it wanted to work (room 301).
Review 27:All waiters, and reception.
Review 28:The wi-fi was only in the restaurant. There was no wi-fi in any common area or inside the apartment even for the additional cost.
Review 29:Big apartment, big bed, big bathroom, a lot of free space, very clear, beautiful view from the balcony, friendly staff. I'll definitely recommend Apartamentos Chinasol to my friends.
Review 30:The beds were saggy- not good for our backs. Kitchen without cleaning equipment, toaster, jug ... discouraging for a cook.
Review 31:We asked for a sunny balcony and we got it- facing the sun with views over the sea.
Review 32:The "out of season" atmosphere in the ground floor area and the lack of WiFi in the apartments. Wifi IS available in the ground floor common areas. Kitchen could be better equipped but you only have to ask and more can be provided.
Review 33:Chinasol has been renovated in the years since I last visited and is almost restored to it's original 1974 condition
Review 34:The place is old, and the furniture as well, but with this price is really worthy.
Review 35:Really nice place, just near the beach. You can lay in your bed and see the sunset through the balcony. Really nice village too.
Review 36:I know there were comments about some parts of the rooms being shabby with dodgy electric sockets but we had no problems .The rooms were clean!

Review 69:FIRE occurred in accommodation and in that moment, everything was terrible. staff did not communicate with us at all, not even look in our room, as we all destroyed. they were totally arrogant, did not help us in any way. It is now a month since the event and we did not have any compensation.in all apartments is faulty wiring, so there blew a apartman. we afraid anythink in the kitchen to cook because the kitchen equipment was very old-oven, fridge.This accommodation was very terrible. DON´T GO THERE!!!! BAD BAD BAD!!!!!!!!!!!
Review 70:Refrigerator doors did not adhere tightly so it was a bit warm inside the fridge. Lack of hair dryer. The front desk is NOT available 24/7.
Review 71:Although a little dated, it is a really good accomodation. If you dont demand 4-5 star quality it's a really good place to choose. Clean, quite comfortable, excellent location, nice pool area and balconies with a sea view. Kitchenware available. Pots, frying pans, utensils, glasses, etc.
Review 72:if anything I/we would have liked the WIFI to have reached the apartments, that is the only criticism. still 10/10.
Review 73:The friendliness of all the Staff, nothing was to much trouble for them, everywhere was very clean, and the location was superb, overall value was 10/10.
Review 74:bit tired looking (but so very well priced that it would seem caddish to overemphasise this)
Review 75:Positioned directly opposite the sea to the west of the town, fantastic views (rooms ending in 06, 07, 08, and 09 have sea views). Good sized swimming pool, open all year round, great breakfasts. well equipped kitchenette.
Review 76:We got the last available apartment, 301, uncomfortable beds, very uncomfortable settee, no wine opener in a self-catering apartment
Review 77:Good value for the money, excellent service from the staff, good location by the beach with nearby bus stop. Would go back but not to that apartment..
Review 78:Nothing
Review 79:We have several times & always been satisfied. Room bit dated but spotlessly clean. Nice balcony overlooking sea. Bathroom clean plenty of hot water. Clean towels daily. Room cleaned every day. Staff very helpful especially Cristina on Reception. We shall definately go again.
Review 80:We had a room with kitchen (studio), unfortunately the kitchen wasn't refurnished since the construction of the hotel, I would say. So there was no microwave, no kettle, and very few utensiles, only a aged cooker. At the reception desk I wanted to pay our 81 euro bill with 100 euro banknote, but the receptionist had no change and want me to pay the exact amount, so the following day I tried to pay with the 100 euro note the small spendings we did, of course nor the cashier at supermarket nor the guy at the castle ticket office wanted to accept it when the payment was about 8 euros. At the and another receptionist at the hotel went over her drawers and find the change money to pay me back.
Review 81:The beach just few steps from hotel, sea view from room balcony.
Review 82:We were right on the end on the top floor and actually asked to be moved as a] the apartment felt very isolated and b] there didn't appear to be any fire alarm or sprinklers in the apartment and no external fire escape. I'm sure they comply with regs. as there are extinguishers, hoses and alarms in the corridors, but we felt much happier on the third floor!
Review 83:Fabulous position and most apartments and studios have sea view and balcony. Breakfast is basic, but fine and the staff are really helpful. Free wifi in public areas
Review 84:Hotel was disorganized sign posts not clear dated furniture in rooms dreadful bathrooms dated over all the hotel seemed to muddled for customers.... different companies...example went for breakfast then told in wrong restaurant so we had to put our food back and look for other restaurant.... no matteress cover after returning from a busy day reception could not locate our keys (reception door closed up stairs) we had to wait until found 20 minutes later.
Review 85:The room was very clean and tidy credit to cleaners lovely views One young girl on reception was really helpful tall girl with long dark hark (ground floor) she helped us with our flights.Other member of staff not helpful working in reception down stairs/.
Review 86:The apartments were so dated and I was unaware that two companies share the hotel/apartments and friends stayed in the more modern and brighter ones for just 3 euros per night more. Lack of some basic requirements in a self catering studio was annoying but easily solved by ourselves.
Review 87:The location was excellent.
Review 88:.Furnishings a bit old fashioned,kitchen facilities very basic with no kettle or microwave.No entertainment in the evenings.
Review 89:Very peaceful and quiet place to spend a holiday with great weather.Apartment was very clean and comfortable with towels changed every day and sheets every other.
Review 90:It is horribly stuck in the 1980s the decor and the smell is musty and old. They desperately need to white wash the building to give it that luxurious Mediterranean look and then need to redo the rooms. But honestly that's what made it cheap so I don't really care. The beds were amazingly comfortable, so they spend money where is counts!
Review 91:The view was incredible. We didn't even think to ask for an sea view and they have us a room with the most incredible view of the whole beach.
Review 92:Lifts did not inspire confidence. Wash basin and toilet were not fixed in position, but this was put right promptly when brought to the attention of reception.
Review 93:Good position in relation to the sea and restaurants. Quiet in February.Staff pleasant and helpful. Excellent free breakfast in the Bounty Bar.
