if you are not in the main hotel block you have a treck to your accomodation
the dinning room is two floors up and has a small lift which takes you up or you can climb the stairs the pool is down 5 levels there is two lifts or you can walk down a steep hill but the gate is some times locked there was little entertainment just a guy playing a electric piano and sings for a hour to far away from other entertainment dinner and evening meal was good breakfast rubbish room was clean and tidy

Top Tip: good pub 2-3 min up the road done a good breakfast good beer and cheap 15-20 min walk into old town same to go to he strip

just back from this hotel...i love travel republic and have booked many times with them...but this place is a joke...very run down and quite smelly...they dont seem to have good management atall..we were only there for 4 nights thankfully..and sc with breakfast which was always cold and very bland.....it was a good price ...but you still expect some standards...we spent most of first night trying to have our room changed as the stench in it was unbearable...it was like going into a dark dungeon to get to it.....stay clear unless you are extremely unfussy.....on the plus side every other arrangement done by travel republic was spot as usual

Top Tip: its location is fine...right between the old town and the strip...nice beach too on your doorstep...pp l with walking or breathing difficulties woul find the uphill walk from beach very taxing i think

James from York

Check-in date:

Upon arrival at the hotel and being shown to our room, found that even though i had booked a double room it was infact a twin with two single beds. Went to reception and all i got was we dont have double beds only singles no explanation as to why, there were several sockets and lights that didn't work such as the one that was next to the mirror for hair drying etc. The reception staff wern't all that helpful especially on the second to last night at 6.00am when i had a leak from the room above dripping over my bed space, no action was taken until a second angry visit to reception this time was atleast 10.45 and the leak had become worse than before, spent a good 5 hours of our last day waiting to be moved to a safe room. Where all though was a nicer room (a lot closer to the claimed 3* than the previous) found my self and my fiance both waking each other up from single beds when turning over during sleep! Hotel was in a very good position for the beach a 2 min walk and about 20 mins to local shops/bars. The pool is no where near big enough for the size of hotel and so outdated.

Top Tip: There is a couple of nice places to eat just 2-5 minutes walk away up the hill.

Magnificent

We have just returned from the Monica Isabel Beach Club. After reading the reviews i was a bit nervous about what i would find. The hotel was in a lovely quiet spot which is ideal if you are wanting to chill out. The old town and the strip was only approx 15 minute walk for in either direction so you had the best of the both worlds. It is ideal for all ages and we enjoyed our time there.

Top Tip: The tardis pub is just up from the hotel where you can have a nice cold drink and watch a bit of tv if you are missing it from home
