Evaluation of the apartment Atlantic Mirage in Los Menores from 20.12. 2022 to 4.1.2023:
Clearly: no recommendation, disaster!
1) Access and parking situation:
A narrow access road, with parked cars on the slope side (house wall / fence), on the valley side a steep wall that ended at road level without any protection (risk of falling)!
It was always a nail-biter driving through and then still hoping that you would find a free parking space in the end, which was often not the case in the evening.
2) location
The apartment is on a mountain slope, near a very busy and steep street, constant noise from car + motorcycles is inevitable, barking dogs all day - even in the morning at 4 a.m.
The view is not just the one in thebooking.compictures! The horrible shell of the building with a strange extension just in front of the view from the balcony is not shown. There is no holiday mood coming up.
Favelas would be the appropriate term for the residential area. All around bulky waste and fenced rubble area!!
3) Handing over the apartment
The arrival and the welcome were very strange! When we arrived, the landlord didn't even think of driving his car back a bit so that we could park right in front of the front door without any problems! It cost some cumbersome maneuvering. Only when asked did he sullenly reverse his car a bit.
4) Furnishings of the apartment
I asked from Germany beforehand how the kitchen equipment was, since we wanted to cook every day. I wanted a list or photos. It was only "everything was available, what you need"!
There were only 2 small coffee cups for 3 adults, camping cutlery,
5) small glasses and some cookware. Many useful items were missing.
The cooker hood smelled like food without food being prepared, filters were full. The freezer was full of thick ice bumps.
The washing machine was outside on a side balcony, didn't work properly, the washing process was stopped but not drained.
