Hotel Montera Plaza

I had send a request for upper floor room, specifically for a very needed quiet room for excellent sleeping quality. the rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are very good, good lighting in bathroom and sink is separately from WC. The breakfast is good with excellent coffee, the barman is kind, and professional, although he seemed to be constantly on his own in charge of the entire bar and is rushed of his feet, we waited 45min for a cup of tea in the afternoon, it wasn't his fault, he was just rushed off his feet on his own for the whole cafeteria and outdoor bar. The reception staff is helpful, and we were happy to be able to leave our cases at the reception for storage till departure. good parking at the hotel. Disliked · We did not get our requested upper floor room, although there were a lot of spare rooms free. The second floor is stinking of cigarette smoke ! even our room was still smelling of an ashtray even though it was clean. There is even a sign hanging up on the second floor that smoking is allowed ! crazy, so why did we not get a choice to stay on a NON-SMOKING floor ??The room was fairy hot and while we enjoyed the fresh breeze through the balcony door , the traffic noise was awful! all day + all night sadly . The double bed is very small if your partner is over six foot or more that 1.80m, better off booking 2 single beds . So unfortunately we had an awful night sleep. Our "double" room was clearly catered for single use, as there was only 1 seat inside and 1 seat outside.. maybe hence the smaller double bed.. only 1 pillow was available in the room, but after finding a friendly cleaning lady, she helped us by giving 2 more. We were booking this hotel for pool relaxation and sunbathing too and were told upon arrival that the POOL IS CLOSED TILL JUNE 2023! This was never mentioned while booking and certainly a surprise while temperatures are over 25C. the main problem for us is the fact that we did not get the room we booked , paid and asked politely for, hence a bad night sleep and sick of cigarette smoke .

Best hotel in Los Barrios, friendly staff. Rooms are OK, but the typical Spanish budget pillow (long hard tube) is from the low budget side of Spanish hotels. Breakfast is also on the low side, no eggs, scrambled or otherwise. What makes up for a 3-day stay is Antonio at the bar. Los Barrios is a workers town, some charm and history and close to Gibraltar and Algeciras. Real Andalucian culture, next to 0 tourists.

It was quite cold weather and as we noticed the room (suite) did not have heating. Normal room costs €65 and suite costs €219. you get nothing extra and a total rip off. The water from the faucet only came out hot. No cold water! Everything was broken, cracked, torn and dirty. Bathroom smelled of mold. I feel taken advantage of here and would not recommend to my worst enemy! STAY AWAY!

Very basic, tired and disappointing hotel. Breakfast was terrible. The worst coffee I've ever had

It was ok the swimming pool was dirty flies in the pool also got stung by a bee no aid at the reception
