Alex Hotel & Spa

Alex Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good
"Very close to train station but try and get a room not facing the train station due to noise. Wc was seprate to the shower which is a minor niggle. 15 mins walk to old port and lots of shops nearby. Lots of mainly Arab food places open late and very early and dead cheap on the door step. Feels relatively safe despite the riots dying down. Mareilles is not dangerous like the media states. Metro station faces the hotel. Pool use costs extra and I was not aware of this, need to pay 30 euro for a reservation slot. Airport shuttle starts at 3.30 am each day (?) but was cancelled on my arrival due to strikes but no issues on way back at 4am. 15 euro single ticket to airport."
