Very impressed with the rooms, only stayed in a studio and it was huge !!!

Couple of cockroaches which I hate, but what can you expect abroad?

Good location, but could be closer to the nightlife, although just a short walk away.

Got woken up a few nights of my stay due to drunken men arguing in the corridors and the walls are paper thin !!was not at all impressed !!!

Staff very friendly.

Entertainment, I felt was aimed at the older generation so was not impressed, but didn't bother me as I went out most nights.

Hotel was a lot better than we expected. Room was clean but warm as no air con. We kept the patio doors open which helped. We only saw one cockroach. Cleaned every day with change of sheets and towels. Shower was good. Bathroom large and kitchen lounge area roomy. I was worried about reports of noise. There was some especially the bin men at 2.30am every day but we went to the bar entertainment at night which finished at 1am so waited for them to come then went to bed. Rested during the day by the pool.There was some shouting as clubbers came home.

Staff were helpful if needed as were our reps. Great entertainment in the bar at night. Quiz, bingo and Karaoke as well as shows. Happy hour 9.30pm to 10.30pm 241. Thanks guys you know who you are if you read this. Just remember. "Always look on the bright side of life"

We were a family so did not do any of the "adult" entertainment so cannot comment. We did the Freebird trip which was great. Probably best not book through reps though. I beleive you can book through their website before you go.

Nice pools. We used the smaller one. Get there early though to get a bed. Quiet area during the day. Lilos provided as well.

A couple of tips. You can rent fans for your room and also a safe which is a must. You can also for 30 Euros book your room for a late checkout if yo are leaving late at night or early morning. We could book ours from the wednesday onwards. We left friday midnight. Highly recommended.

It is well situated, 10min walk from the strip for all you youngters!! Good bar on the corner called The Anchor with sky for sports fans. Plenty of retaurants nearby also and a supermarket at the bottom of the road.

All in all a great holiday. I would go back again but it not the place for families in high season. October half term was just about right. Probably not for really young children either.

I ended up there through booking a late holiday. I wouldn't go out of my way to go there again but I wouldn't be disappointed if I ended up there.

The hotel is close to the centre of the resort so I was surprised how quiet it was. All the restaurants & bars were only a short walk away. The beach was a ~10-15 minutes walk.

I had a one bedroom apartment on the 1st floor. The bedroom was dark as it had no window to the outside but as we only slept there that didn't matter.

The main room was quite large and there was plenty of room for the 3 of us despite the nieces attempt to spread her junk everywhere. Loads of storage space in various cupboards.

The room had a coin-operated telly with English channels. The kitchen had the usually rubbish 2 ring electric cooker and an electric kettle.

Our balcony looked out of the central courtyard. This is surrounded on all sides by other rooms so no views except of the lives of other holiday makers. A living soap opera.

The cleaners did a good job. Towels were decent, not threadbare and were change regularly. The maid made the beds every day.

There was entertainment in the bar which we sampled on a couple of nights. It was of the pub singer type but after a few drinks they all sounded brilliant :-)

The only downside was a bit of a smell around the one end of the pool. Pool was OK - clean etc. but there was a smell of sewage lingering in the bushes. It was not a problem for us as we went to the beach. We only used the pool on the odd late afternoon when the sunbeds were emptying and you could pick and choose where you went.

The hotel had a couple of coin-operated computers with MSN messenger which meant the kids kept in touch with there rain-soaked friend in the UK. There was also an in-hotel supermarket that sold most things.

On leaving we were left a couple of complementary

We are a couple who were looking for a relaxing break. I was concerned about some of the reports about this hotel but found it relatively ok noise wise.

Most of the noise was out in the street or in the lane between the 2 parts of the hotel - although the hotel was trying hard to manage noise internally there is not much that can be done about the noise outside. Take ear plugs and you should be ok!

We had south facing balcony so we got the sun all day - room was hot but we hired a fan and that worked perfectly. The hotel has no air con but fans can be hired from the hotel or "Mr Cool" - ask the reps.

The hotel is located on the edge of Las Americas, and not a long walk to Los Christanos. Well placed for beaches as well as restaurants and nightlife. But set back so not much club music can be heard at night.

We went out everynight so didn't use the inhouse bar etc at all.

Rooms were basic but cleaned daily - fresh sheets and towels every second day. Basic kitchen facilities - fridge, small cooker etc.

A lot of 20 ish people staying at the hotel - young atmosphere but a few of us "oldies" (late 30's) as well.

I wouldn't stay again but we tend to try new places and locations each time. If you are looking for a quiet place this isn't the hotel for you but the location is really good, the staff were very helpful and the facilities were basic but suited what we needed.

Recommendations:

Hire a fan:
The rooms can be quite hot and stuffy - hire a fan from reception or "Mr Cool" - it will make a huge difference - especially at night if you want to sleep.

Noise:
Take ear plugs

Final Day:
If you have a late flight they may let you stay in your room for the day - extra charge of 30 Euros. You have to speak to reception at 8.00am on the day of departure.

Safe:
Recommend getting a safe - requires a deposit on top of daily charge - highly recommended. We had no problems with security but always locked valuables away.

Supermarket:
Good value with selection of local and UK products for all tastes

Stayed here on a few occasions before but have never experienced noise like we did on this holiday.Every night or should I say morning at 4 am.-6 am. we were awakened by people shouting and screaming across to each other from the Cattlya opposite. The security guards must be deaf because when we complained they said they never heard any noise.The apartments are very clean and spacious with the bedding and towels changed daily. It is a pity that such a nice hotel is being ruined by a few drunken yobs.

This hotel is very clean it was much better than we expected.

I think it deserves more than a 2 key rating.There is a snack bar during the day which sells chips burgers etc and its always handy having your own supermarket in the complex.

The hotel is set very central close to all the clubs and bars.There was no entertainment on a night but there was a happy hour between 7 and 10. The staff werent over friendly but we never had any problems.

I would definetly recommend this hotel to others and will be returning shortly.

Arrived at hotel on a Sunday evening, had hired a car which we were able to park right outside the hotel front and there was no charge for this. Check in was very easy and quick too.

We booked this package through the internet and my friend had stayed at this hotel before and she had told me that it was basic.

We were on the 2nd floor, with a large suitcase it was quite a way fron the reception to the lift and the porter was walking really fast, luckily he favoured me and carried mine, but about several others were puffing and panting!!!

Got to the room, and was pleasantly surprised. It was a 1 bedroom apartment overlooking what I think was the back. Not a great view, but that wasn't what we were there for anyway... there were 2 balconies too, which was great as we could sunbathe seperately!!!

The bathroom was quite small, but for 2 people it was adequate. However, the shower was deceiving, didn't look great, but was fantastic after a day out. Fresh towels and sheets were changed every other day also, very friendly and helpful cleaning staff, but that may depend upon how clean you keep it maybe.

We didn't eat on site or experience any of the entertainment, but from speaking to other guests, the Freestyle events were good, altho could be better if more people were on them as we were there at early part of season. Hotel shop was well stocked with helpful staff there too.

Compared to a hotel I stayed in when i went to Magaluf, there was hardly any noise, but I think that as we are 2 young females, it wouldn't bother us anyway.

Only disappointment was that we couldn't have our room for the extra day when checking out, and when I went to book another room they had all gone. So avoid disappointment you need to book it early on the morning of the day that you're leaving.

All-in-all an excellent hotel for the young and lively season, especially as it's only about 5-10mins walk to the beach and the bars.

My best friend and I stayed at Las Piramides during the last week of June 2004, and had a fantastic time. We were expecting somewhat basic accomodation and were VERY pleasantly suprised upon arrival.

Las Piramides is situated up a road just off the main stretch, so although we found ourselves close to everything we needed, it was quieter than staying in the centre.

We stayed in a studio apartment on the second floor and were fortunate to have a great view over the children's pool. The room itself was much larger than anticipated,clean and had additional features such as a TV, dining table and comfortable chairs which were not expected! The kitchenette was adequate and although we did eat out most evenings, we found the snacks avialable by the pool were good value and very tasty!

The bathroom was quite large with a decent shower,
the room was cleaned daily and the towels changed regularly too. We were even left two half bottles of wine and a note of thanks from the managament on our last day which was a really lovely touch.

Although we didn't see any, there was a variety of entertainment on offer and a good menu choice in the bar too.

One more thing, we were lucky enough to be able to book a room for our last day as we did not fly until late at night. At only 30 euros this was certainly worth it as it meant we could enjoy our last day in comfort. For anyone considering this, we went to reception early on our last day to ensure a room was available.

All in all, we had a wonderful time and as for Las Piramides, we would certainly give top marks! I would recommend the accomodation to anyone visiting Playa and if I return,Las Piramides would certinly be my first port of call!!!

I really enjoyed staying in this hotel and would recommend it to anyone.

We stayed in a studio apartment. The living area room was very big and airy, it had a comfy big setee which could be used as a bed, it also had a single bed in the living area, pay per view t.v and a large set of wooden doors and large coffee table and patio doors on to a balcony and to the left of the balcony was another small balcony.

The kitchen area was also in the living which had two stove and plenty of storage cupboards and a dining table.

The bathroom was large and clean with a bath and shower over the bath, toilet and beday and sink with storage round the sink area.

The bedroom had two single beds, with a large wardrobe with a large shelf and drawers, there was also a large dressing table with drawer and a mirror. Also in the bedroom was some more patio door on to another balcony.

I though the hotel was very clean overall, the pool was clean and there was a pool bar.

The hotel location was very good, close to the resturants and the shopping area and only a shot walk to the main nightlife.

The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful.

I would certainly visit this hotel again.
