Scene
Small hotel popular with leisure travelers looking to stay close to the beach
Prestige Hotel Mar Y Sol is situated across a road from the beach, occupying a six-story building with a nondescript facade and shopfronts on the ground floor -- one of which is taken up by the property's restaurant. The reception area is compact and spartan, with gray marble walls, a small reception counter, an oversized wall clock, and little else. The property has a bit of a cold feel to it because there are no public areas to gather in apart from its restaurant, but nevertheless, it's a popular place to stay with leisure travelers who want to be close to the beach.

The furniture is a curious mix of modern sofas and end tables, and a few older, recycled pieces, such as dated tables and chairs that show a bit of wear in some of the Standard Rooms.In-room amenities are a bit basic and limited to air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, safes (for a fee), and free Wi-Fi, while Superior Rooms also include mini-fridges and kitchenettes.
