Hotel Alcides

Guests appreciate the friendly staff, central location, spacious rooms, and varied breakfast. They consistently praise the cleanliness. However, some may find the breakfast options limited.

Stayed at Alcides Hotel recently and loved its central location. The staff was super friendly! Downside: no parking on-site, so you need a rental car, but there’s free parking about a ten-minute walk away. Rooms are tiny, but that’s expected for an older European spot. Basics are covered, but the bed was rock-hard—I was glad to have my own pillow. It’s labeled 2 stars, but I’d say it deserves 3. Giving it 4 stars because it’s a great deal for the price!

I will start with the good. I wanted to give this hotel at least a four star rating as the check-in process was excellent and the desk clerk was very friendly. However, we rented two rooms and one of the rooms had a broken air conditioner. When I requested that someone look at it the next morning, I was initially told it was working fine. I was unable to get the clerk to understand that the fan is not the same as the air conditioner. Later that afternoon when it still was not fixed I was told it was too late to switch rooms as housekeeping had left for the day. The saving grace was the night clerk finding us a fan which at least made the room bearable. I know many hotels do not have air-conditioning, but this was selected specifically because it did. Otherwise, the hotel is acceptable and as I indicated, in an excellent area/location.
