My stay at Hotel El Faro Marbella had its ups and downs. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beach. but the noise from the nearby school made mornings a bit rough. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making the experience better, but the room itself was a mixed bag. Overall, it had its charm, though it felt a bit dated.

The pool area was pleasant for relaxation, though not very large. Overall, the facilities met my needs but could use some upkeep.
