"The apartment was clean and modern. We loved the pool and terrace. Central location. Everything was in walking distance. I think the towels should be changed more frequently. It would be helpful to have more wardrobe space, more hangers and a draining board for the kitchen."

8/10 Good
"Decent hotel in an excellent location. Probably the best if traveling without a car. However, if you do have a car, the location might cost you additional dollars/euros you do not expect from a traffic fine. I am still not certain the sections of the street leading up to the bridge the hotel is located next to are restricted, but I just paid a fine months after our stay for driving in the restricted zone. Supposedly if you stay in a hotel in the restricted zone you are exempt, but nothing was ever mentioned while we stayed there and the hotel did have our rental car information. I guess there are signs, but I never noticed any. At least not ones located on the MAIN street through Ronda and the street GPS will most likely take you down. Possibly I missed it while on the lookout for all the people walking in the street due to overcrowded sidewalks. It seems that the Hotel Don Miguel and many others are located in the restriction zone, so I would assume Ronda is making tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of Euros from fining visitors. The staff was very friendly and even parked our car for us in their garage the first night."
