Melia Alicante
We had a level room and the lounge included was absolutely great. The sea view was also totally worth it. We loved it. The cleaning staff was very nice and left chocolates and water in our room with some sightseeing recommendations. I would recommend it.

Staff was courteous, bedding had a mark on it. Shower had hair in it. I didnt complain as we were only staying a night, it was just a bed for the night and shower. Room floor was also dirty
