They're really convenient for the Kasbah, which is where there are loads of bars and shops. There's a couple of restaurants in the apartment complex too (a Hard Rock cafe rip-off and some other one).

I've never stayed there myself, but a colleague has and he liked it. He was on a lads holiday.

You're about 10 mins walk from the Irish centre and 15 from the beach. The Yumbo center is about 10 minutes walk away too. Loads of decent shops and alternative bars. Check out the Drag Show in Café La Belle. Get there early to get a seat and join in the quiz! One of the best nights out on the island, and a different show every night.

I stayed there about 3 years ago. Like mikedragon32 said, it's nice and handy to everything you need really.

The accommodation itself is pretty basic, but has all the essentials and is clean enough. There are cleaners that come around every day or 2 as well. Not sure how often exactly as it was a good while ago now, but I remember the place getting cleaned a few times in our 2 weeks there.

The pool is nice and big too. I did see a few other apartments nearby that looked a bit classier, but overall it is a decent place for the lower end of the apartments scale there. Especially for what we paid. Few of us went over on a last nimute deal. 200 euro for fllights and accommodation for 2 weeks! Think it was 190 for 1 week so we had to stay the 2 really. Can't say fairer than that.
