Our stay at the Hotel Ibersol Torremolinos Beach was a nightmare. We arrived in October and soon realised that most of the guests were elderly. My girlfriend and I suffered severe food poisoning on our first full day, she started vomiting non-stop and about 12 hours later, I was the same. We spent the rest of the holiday in bed, vomiting every 15 minutes. It was a terrible experience, and being young, it completely debilitated us. I am deeply concerned about what this could do to older people, who were the majority of the clientele.
On investigation, we discovered a plethora of reviews of food poisoning at this hotel, which should bring it to the attention of the authorities to take action. I do not understand how they can continue to operate without improving their hygiene standards, putting the safety of guests at risk.
Furthermore, the soundproofing of the rooms is appalling. The walls are so thin that you could hear everything, even the intimate activities of the neighbours, which is very uncomfortable.
On the positive side, the hotel has good views and is close to the beach.
