Good stay
Nice apartment (a bit old but clean). Good size bathtub. Balcony overlooking pool and lovely views of the valley. Friendly staff. Easy check-in. Kitchen was well equiped but minus a kettle and toaster. Pool is enclosed and small but nice. Good sunbathing area with sun all day. In the La Paz area of town close to shops and restaurants. Overall a good price for a few nights away.

Definitely recommend
The Carabela is a lovely hotel that has ramps to get everywhere (which was handy since I was pushing a buggy). Actually, you could get everywhere except the "indoor pool" which was a covered outdoor pool and so as cold as the outdoor pool. The room was huge and the kitchen convenient. Room service was very irregular in terms of what was done although someone came every day bar Sunday. For the most part, hotel staff were extremely helpful unless they didn't speak English, which was surprising to find in one of the three desk workers. The area nearby is very hilly but has everything you could want nearby from restaurants, shops to mini golf! We will likely go back again!

Cockroaches
Cockroaches in the room - do not accept room 107. Changed, after much ‘discussion’ with the receptionist. New room, patio door fell apart. Toilet flush didn’t work. Cockroaches wandering around the bar seating area. I know it’s cheap, but not that cheap.

Good value hotel .Shame about very poor wi-fi & TV
We stayed 7 weeks and provided you are fit enough to enjoy the walk downhill to Puerto oceanside and back up the long hill to Le Paz, this is a good choice of location as the views toward the Mount Teide mountainside are glorious. Excellent choice of restaurants nearby as well as a good Hypermarket store for groceries if eating in the apartment.

The room that never was?
On arrival was told the hotel was fully booked & the best rooms booked a year in advance. We could have a ground floor room which had no out look & little sun. Not to worry they had a sister hotel just down the road if we didn't like the room on offer. Got the impression they wanted rid of us - fast. With in minutes we were ferried off by the waiting hotel transfer to the sister hotel. We have stayed at the sister hotel before - basic but fine & the staff there are great - we just want something a little different. Disappointed on the first day - but got over it & had a good break.

Nothing special
But you get what you pay for. This side of the island gets all the weather so you spend most of your time in the south. So doesn't matter the hotel is v basic. No chance of a lie in either. The maids trolley is so loud rolling up and down the hallway from 7am

Carabella
We had a very spacious room. Wifi was a necessity for us and this was for a small surcharge of two euros a day. Connection wasn't always there in our room but worked fine in the foyer/lounge area. Overall good hotel in a good location. A visit to the roof terrace for the 360 degree view of sea and mountains is a must.

Completo.
El alojamiento tiene lo básico que se necesita para un viaje pequeño en solitario, con amigos o pareja. Todos los días nos limpiaron la habitación. Tiene gel, agua caliente, nevera, cocina con utensilios, incluido abridor de vinos. Las vista por ambos lados del edificio son agradables. Nada de lujos pero todo lo esencial.

Rimelig og bra
Rommet kunne vært bedre rengjort, førsteinntrykk så bra ut, men ikke når man så nærmere, det som ikke var bra var: - noen flekker og fingermerker på dører, balkonggulv, vegg, badegulv, kjøkken håndak på dører var skittne og på bad på toalettrullholdere var det skitt og det lukta do lukt. Gulvene var blanke på oppholdsrom. Rommet var litt kjølig med kun pledd, kunne vært orntlige dyner, er mer hygenisk med tanke på covid 19 Så med litt ekstra innsats på renhold pluss orntlig dyne på rommet, kunne gjort oppholdet mye bedre. Men i forhold til pris så er det verdt pengene sånn som det er. Fjernkontroll var d depositum 10 euro. Det blei ikke nevnt ved innsjekking. Hotellet ligger veldig sentralt til La paz med resturanter, supermarked osv samt botaniske hagen og ei kort gåtur nedover til selve byen, stranda osv opp fra byen lurt med taksi om man ikke er glad i oppoverbakke. Flott utsikt fra balkongen mot Teide og åsen rundt. Hyggelig ansatte.
