Acapulco is a very expensive place now, so if this is your first time there, DON"T stay at Alba Suites, because this is not the real Acapulco you're looking for ... so be ready to pay more then!
However, I have been there several times to Acapulco, so I just need a comfortable place to sleep, I rent a car and travel wherever I want, so this is a good deal. It has a kitchenette, which I love so I can have my own food if I don't feel like eating out. The hotel is quite big, spread out on several units of 2 floors each, the pools are in between these units. Considering its size and openess I think it is very very clean, but on the other hand it is noisy during the day, specially all the kids in the pool. It's not near the beach whatsoever, but sits on a hill with a nice breeze, unfortunately no views to the sea from most rooms, I guess only one of the outdoor terraces.
This hill is located in the old part of Acapulco, so you do need to go all around the bay to get where "the action" really is, however, once back in the evening is deliciously quiet !! which I like, unlike the expensive hotels on the costanera that deal with the noise of bars and people outside the streets. If you don't have a car, I think outside you can take a typical Acapulco taxi, VW black bug.

8/10 found this review helpful

Suites Alba was an absolute pleasure. The rooms were clean and the staff exceptionable. They were always working on something and always went out of their way to help.

There was 8 of us that went and they made sure we were all in the same building. The pools(5) were very nice.

We all had a small kitchenette which was very helpful considering we stayed for 16 days.

Retired or semi-retired people will find this very enjoyable.

Thanks again

Alba Suites was a great disappointment. When we arrived they showed us an old deteriorated suite that we would not accept. After complaining and not being allowed to leave without paying for one night, our party of four was given two adjoining rooms that were acceptable. The pools were overcrowded with families and the beach was on the polluted harbor. my wife wanted to leave immediately but because of their threats and the heat, we stayed for two nights -leaving two nights early back to mexico City. Bad hosts and environment. not close enough to downtown and restaurants without a car.

Room was overpriced - they put me in the furthest bungalow that they could - was a 6 minute walk just to check out. Was NOT near downtown as advertised. The hotel was out of the way, no public transportation.
Load air-conditioning, that never quite cooled the room. Would not recommend or revisit.
