We checked in at this hotel today April 26th 2025. On arrival we were warmly greeted by the reception staff who were very helpful. The check was very smooth and we didn't have to wait. We were told that our room, a two bedroom suite would be ready in hour. On arrival in our room we saw that was generally ok. The second bedroom was very boxy and cell like with the two single mattresses on a platform slightly raised from the floor rather than on bed frames. Our eldest daughter looked at it disappointedly. On first use of the bathroom we saw a dried on yellow droplet of what suspiciously like urine on the toilet seat. On use of one of the plug sockets, the face plate came off when our mobile phone charger was removed. The tiny wardrobe in the main bedroom was totally inadequate for the two suitcases of clothes that we had, and there were only four hangers. The air conditioner in the room was only pumping out warm air when switched on. We raised these matters with reception and received very little if any sympathy. On requesting an alternative room (primarily due to the depressing looking second bedroom) we were simply told that all of the rooms in this category were the same. We were told that the manager had made the decision not to have the air conditioning on throughout all of the rooms in the hotel and we received a somewhat bemused look when we informed the staff of the suspicious looking yellow stain on the toilet seat ( which we cleaned off after photographing it). At 6.10pm we are still waiting for extra clothes hangers for the wardrobe, some four hours after requesting them, and there is no hot water in the bathroom! All in all, on our first day here we have a very bad first impression of Prinsotel Alba. Unfortunately we cannot recommend the place.
