CARABEO I 18 MENYBER

Pleasant
Traveller Type:
  : The apartment was large and comfy. The air conditioning worked well. Even though a festival was taking place nearby it was still relatively quiet. It was clean and the location was good a few minutes walk to town and a few minutes walk to the beach. There was a snack bar at the corner did good food. Felt safe in this area - Nerja as a whole is safe and lovely - lots of beaches, hikes and over 400 restaurants and bars. Really lovely place.
  : The property itself was a good standard, a little worn. It's in a lovely location but only a marginal view of the sea. No hairdryer and for someone with long hair that was a problem. The keys are held at another hotel and so we had to ask the taxi to pick up the keys on our way. There were no instructions or indication of what each key was for and so we had a lot of fumbling in the dark. The hosts Menyber pushed for us to book a taxi which we did through them and we were dropped off in the wrong place which led to a strenuous walk and my partner then suffered a strain which affected all of the holiday. It was a festival time and when I rang Menyber for help about A & E, they said on Friday they were on holiday until Monday and offered no help whatsoever. A little reassurance would have been appreciated. We did end up in A & E. Would never book a property with Menyber again.

  : It was not made clear to me that the key collection was a 15 minutes walk from the apartment. I let the taxi go assuming it was close by. The apartment is extremely dated with worn furniture, and dirty windows. There was no view to speak of anyway as the apartment is surrounded by building work which continues into the night. I have never before experienced so much noise coming from all directions. We were unable to cook breakfast or make coffee on the first morning as the gas canister was empty. I didn't feel it was acceptable that I should be expected to change it and indeed I couldn't anyway. Getting into the apartment required 4 keys which could have been labelled. It was a few days before we got in easily, and one of the locks was extremely temperamental.

  : Location excellent
  : Having to run across town with luggage to collect and return keys. Our transport (also booked with booking.com) was drop off and pick up at property. Also property had no hairdryer and we had to purchase one
