This review pertains to room 755 at the Alay, a corner room in the tower building facing the Mediterranean providing a commanding view of the marina and sea front. The room has a private balcony (some have shared balcony), marble/tile bath, and extra firm bed--two twins put together to make a king size. Given the excellent location and busy marina/shopping/tourist... more

Stayed at The Alay from the 7th - 10th March 2009. Had a room on the 4th floor which when we walked in to the room, looked out on to a brick wall, however once on the balcony, you could see the sea. Room was average. Bathrooms seemed to be newer than the rest of the inside of the room.... more

In truth, although the... more

This was not the hotel we originally booked. 7 days before departure our operator advised that the chosen hotel was full (although a confirmed booking a month before) and they offered the Hotel Alay as a like for like 4 star alternative. The hotel is well located right next to the marina and an easy walk from shops etc -... more

The hotel is situated near the beach and the many beach cafés on the promenad, but far away from the trainstation. There are also a nice shopping-/restaurant complex just three minutes walk from the hotel. The hotel and the room are very ould and tired, but the beds are pleasant and the bathroom has all you need. The cleanness could... more
