Reviews for Hotel Avenida de Canarias

Review 1:"Minimalistic" interior. Lack of noise "protection" from the corridor.

Review 2:Value for money. Food cheap but good. Location. Helpful personnel.

Review 3:Problems with my Amex card. I think that they want I should use an another card? However, next day they accepted it.

Review 4:Quiet and short distance from airport

Review 5:Where do I begin? First, the street address given for this property iscompletely fictitious! The street it is in is currently a pedestrian-only walkway. So even if your gps is up to date for Vecindario (ourswasn't), you will never find the hotel except on foot. Its parkinggarage is located on the other side of the building on a differentstreet, and is not clearly marked. We parked several blocks away and Imade it to the hotel on foot, then got written directions on how tonavigate the town and arrive at parking. When we finally arrived, wewere given a room number but not told what floor the room was on; wewere told to put the key card into the elevator and it would take us tothe right floor. Instead, it took us to the street! Once that wasstraightened out, we got to the room, and the air conditioning did notwork. (By 3 the next morning, when we had to get up for our flight, itwas slightly cooler in the living room where the air vent is, but not inthe bedroom which has no vent). The hotel was filled with college kidswho were running through the halls banging on doors. An absolutenightmare of a hotel.

Review 6:The only thing really outstanding about this property were the staff,who went above and beyond to accommodate us. The girl at the desk whenwe arrived appreciated the absurdity of the situation and was very kindand apologetic. The staff were kind enough to provide us with anelectric fan to compensate for the non-working air conditioner, andbecause of our extremely early departure the next morning they gave useach a "picnic" we could eat at the airport, which was verykind of them. (Good sandwich, a fresh pear and bottled water.) The staffdid ring the room where most of the rowdy students seemed to be staying(only after we complained) and they were more quiet afterwards.

Review 7:Good location within a 20 euro taxi ride from the airport. Friendly staff and decent breakfast in the morning. Nothing fancy but good enough to start you off for the day. Rooms were clean and functional,there are places to sit around near the reception area. There are a good selection of bars and shops near by.

Review 8:The magnetic cards worked badly. The one for the parking never worked, so that we went through the reception to exit the parking every time. Even the one for the room failed once.

Review 9:Wonderful hotel, with smiling personnel and a lot of space (common spaces on the floors, living room inside the bedroom). You get a free parking. Also the breakfast buffet was very decent, especially for the price!

Review 10:A fee for pets,... since our poodle behaves better than a lot of children... but that's not really a complaint...

Review 11:Out of the city where there is NEVER any parking, close to the airport, but not far from anything, plus good shopping and a mall in walking distance as well.

Review 12:Because the road is now pedestrianised, it was difficult to locate the hotel.

Review 13:Good value for money- cheap breakfast and buffet dinner. Within 15 minutes drive to airport.

Review 14:The lifts were sometimes a challenge, but always worked eventually. The hotel is in a pedestrian area and quite hard to access from the bus stops with luggage. The bed was quite hard.

Review 15:The city centre location was convenient, in the centre of a bustling high street. The room was spacious and clean. The staff were considerate and helpful and the breakfast was plentiful with a large choice of hot and cold food.

Review 16:just noisy other guests! But that's everywhere these days sad to say! They did shut up by 11 pm however!

Review 17:This was just a stopover place for an early airport check in. It was fine and had a wonderful value for money buffet in the restaurant. Would recommend, but it does not have any real character.

Review 18:The hotel receptionist/manager was very polite and helpful. The hotel and facilities clean and comfortable providing all the essentials plus for travelers. Breakfast was very good value

Review 19:Nothing relevant. Bed was good itself, but plastic under sheets makes it a bit uncomfortable in hot weather. Sounds from the walking street might disturb someone.

Review 20:Location, plenty of shops nearby. A/C in the room. Very good breakfast for the price! Free parking underground with direct elevator to hotel. Room was exceptionally clean for this price range of hotels. Cleaning every day. Kind and helpfull staff. Large safe in the room (1,5e/day)

Review 21:Our non-smoking room smelt of stale cigarettes. Lots of noise from passing guests in the hallways late into the night and into early morning (ie 5:00!)

Review 22:Located on the Avenda de Canarias which is a pedestrian only part of the town with lots of shops and cafes. Great Value with Breakfast included. The Cafe inside served well prepared food for a good price. Machine in lobby for drinks and snacks.

Review 23:Bit louder through the closed windows.

Review 24:Spacious room. Big parking under the ground.

Review 25:nice location, very convienent! Parking is also very well arranged. Great breakfast, only 4 Euro per Person.

Review 26:Taxi from Airport could not find the Hotel and dropped us off in a back road late at night.

Review 27:Room nice and clean. Breakfast very good.

Review 28:Smell of smoke in room. Traffic noise at night.

Review 29:Situation

Review 30:Clean rooms. Close to Atlantico with free parking below reception. Really nice and riche breakfast.

Review 31:Room very noisy! one night stay (Saturday night) for early morning connection flight. Could hear all the the guys and girls around 04 AM....

Review 32:nothing

Review 33:Everyone helpful and friendly over and above duty.would highly reccomend it for it offers all you need.in one place close to the airport.

Review 34:Central position, free parking

Review 35:wifi is not available almost. location is not good as well

Review 36:Clean efficient hotel at excellent price

Review 37:No bar facilities

Review 38:Location and price

Review 39:Poor wi-fi

Review 40:Price

Review 41:Fridge not working reported but not repaired

Review 42:Clean and comfortable

Review 43:this is clearly an out-of-date, budget hotel despite the 8.1 rating. they don't even have a proper reception desk and restaurant, just two furnished spaces in the dark, dingy basement of a building, very strange. the reception is very slow at check-in, still using paper records. breakfast is minimal just like everything else here. every person in the room needs a separate wifi account to use the internet and has to log in each time. honestly i don't understand how it could have been rated above 8. we also stayed at Hotel Escuela S.B. with only a slightly higher rating and slightly more expensive but we had a much more pleasant stay there than at this hotel.

Review 44:convenient location close to the airport and highway. big shopping center nearby. very basic room facility but kept quite clean. internet speed is ok but had to log in each time we used it. really convenient that guests can park freely at the hotel's own parking in the underground garage.

Review 45:This is a great hotel to use as a base to explore the other parts of the island, the bus stop to the south is just a minute's walk from behind the hotel. The bus stops to the North are a few minute's walk along the main street. The hotel is very clean, modern and comfortable.

Review 46:The terrible maze of one way streets - the hotel took a lot of finding, next time we'll take the satnav

Review 47:Excellent food and room Underground parking

Review 48:-Quite noicy, windows with no isolation gave noice from street, and a bit too cold temperature in Febrary. -The floor had laminate flooring which gave quite a bit noice when walking on it.

Review 49:-Good Price -Good Parking conditions -Good wifi -Fine breakfast -Nice people in reception -Spaceous room

Review 50:The only slightly negative things were that there are no rooms with a smoking option, and the warm water lasts for a very short time.

Review 51:This hotel is located in a city, where the locals live, so it’s not overcrowded with tourists and therefore is not overpriced. A great ‘plus’ was the hotel’s parking facilities. The room was quite big and the hotel breakfast buffet (4 eur) and dinner buffet incl. wine (8 eur) taste great.

Review 52:noise from the street bad smell in the rooms

Review 53:The service at the reception was excellent. we got a big lux room with an excellent room and bathroom, extra room, 2 big flat screen TVs. A bed was comfortable and huge but pillows were not comfortable enough. good location with bus stops and shops nearby. soaps, shampoos and extra stuff for the bathroom provided. everything was very tidy.

Review 54:It was far away from beaches and touristic centers. But it was close to the buss stop and exactly at center of Vecindario, even though not so interesting around.

Review 55:The room was very nicely decorated, everything needed was present. Very clean, nice staff, nice breakfast.

Review 56:small detail - the location is good but not perfect if you don't have car to drive around

Review 57:Rooms are big, clean and tidy, free parking included in the basement, very friendly staff, good breakfast for fair price, for an extra fee you can get some more inventor like iron, shaving set, etc. Big shopping malls around, if you forgot something with you.

Review 58:The only thing I really did not like is that my room was facing a courtyard which was easy to access for all guests, meaning that if I leave the window open, people could easily climb inside. And the street outside the hotel is now pedestrians only, so bit of a walk to the airport bus.

Review 59:This hotel is well-run and has everything a budget traveller wants. The breakfast is a bargain if you book it with the room. Fast, usable wi-fi. The location is in the middle of Vecindario, which is neither prettty nor a tourist town, but perfect if you want to experience a real canarian everyday town.

Review 60:Clean, comfortable and affordable, breakfast and evening meals also available, with helpful staff and free wifi, for when I travel and need an overnight stay to catch my connecting flight, no more than a 20 euro taxi fare from the airport. Below the hotel is a couple of bars, I prefer the first bar on the left as you look at the hotel from the outside, I use it in the evening for a couple of beers and a nice plate of 'Gambas'

Review 61:Check in in the night was really, really slow...You have to pay inadvance, something I always dislike (it seems that they believe youare going to run away!!) when you arrive at 0300am, you just want togo to bed...

Review 62:Comfortable room and bathroom, big enough. Reception staff was reallynice (during check out, during check in in the night I cannot say thesame...). Breakfast is limited, compared to other hotels in the island(but is cheap)

Review 63:N/a

Review 64:My second night here after a week somewhere else on the island. As goodas the first time. Great location close enough to the airport. A"normal" Canarian town without tourists. Good breakfast, Wi-Fi, quiet room...

Review 65:Terrible beds (very very hard), terrible pillows (just one and it wassmal, thin and flat), no swimming pool, free internet for just onedevice (bad for family with more than one device), bad location fortourists looking for sun and beach or pool.

Review 66:Free breakfast, free internet (just for one device only), decent rooms,bath, free parking in garage directly under the hotel.

Review 67:This being my second christmas at this hotel...i can recommend it foreveyone...i am a disabled person permanently in a wheelchair and itcaters for my every needs...i give this hotel a++++++++++10/10...thanks to all the staff there for amking my stay sofabulously comfortable...and a happy new year and navada to all andevery one... :-)

Review 68:I think this hotel can be assessed at three stars.Free wi-fi inside the room. Parking with a lot of empty places. Price !!! It really best hotel for such money. If you will use own (rended) car, you should not worry about it location on island. Moreover, you will get equal distance to beach in Lospalomas (Dunas de Maspalomas) and Las Palmas. Additional advantage of this location is less foreigners per square meter - you can have a rest from the people ;) And if you like windsurfing then Vecindario is the best place because about 3,5 kilometers to Pozo izquierdo where you may have a great time. ;) And... ...When you stand on the Avenida de Canarias and see the entrance, on the right (!!!) you will see the cafe (the nearest to door of the hotel), where I ate the best pizza in my life. It is called "Poctam". :)
