Hotel Aries

We choose this stay for the cheap accommodation as we were traveling around Spain and needed to cut costs somewhere on the trip. Big mistake! The lobby looks very nice and you get a warm welcome on arrival. No problems there, but when opening the door to the room we really disappointed. It was poorly furnished with old rundown table, chairs and a extremely uncomfortable bed. It was really hot the period we where their but we could not cool down the room because every time we put the air con on the power went. I can just agree with "Astyanax" and his review; the shower was a joke, the whole bathroom was just terrible. The narrow street was noisy all day and most of the night from all traffic and people. Luckily, we took a few drinks every night before bedtime, I think it saved us. This place should need a total makeover or close asap. Or at least get accurate pictures on booking.com so you know what you get yourself into. Ok, to the more positive parts. The restaurant opposite the hotel has a nice porch and when we sat on our balcony we could use their wifi, as the hotels connection just worked in the hallway on level 2 (?). The bar downstairs was ok, crowded on thursday and the gay meeting place in the area. In Mallorca town Coto (gay restaurant) was really nice, and a trip to Port de Soller is a must.

Stayed at the hotel for a few nights, everyone staying at hotel practically hanging out on the second floor (no wifi in entire hotel other than 1st and 2nd floor) to get a wifi signal so that they can find their next hookup on GRINDR. I wouldn't even think of going to Sauna as it seemed pretty sleazy. This hotel should come with a a side of penicillin if you ask me although great looking boys everywhere. Hey, it's not my sort of thing but very well may be someone else's. Hotel exterior looks modern however the interior leaves much to be desired. The hotel shower stall is ridiculously small and I'm an average sized individual 32w an found myself squeezing into stall. No room to breathe. Terribly claustrophobic and hot water takes forever, no, it really does. I've never seen such a small Shower stall in my life. The only good thing I can think off is that it's location is alright with respect to all things gay. Nice and cozy restaurant across the street named "Michel Bar and Tapas". Owner is great and makes you feel at home. It's also close to other gay bars in neighborhood I'd say within a few hundred feet. I wish they'd modernize rooms, bathrooms need serious overhaul. It would be a gem if they truly remodeled bathrooms. Would be a great cute boutique hotel. Has potential.

I stayed only 1 night at this hotel, this was 1 night to much! 2 things were positive, from outside it looks fancy and the maid, she checked me in, offered me coffee, while she was ironing some shirts and when she left she even said good bey. the room was in a very bad shape, the sauna was a dirty place and in a extreme very bad shape, the employees were unfriendly, arrogant and not interested! I cannot understand how this place could survive for 30 years, this is a big mistery to me!
