Summary of reviews related to the '3 Star' categoryEdificio Bola de Oro offers a mixed experience reflected in its three-star rating. On the positive side, the hotel is praised for its great location with clean and tidy rooms, providing beautiful views of the skyline from the rooftop terrace. Guests appreciate the variety of activities available and the charming rooftop restaurant, along with pleasant common areas and decorative touches that enhance the ambiance. The terrace includes a bar, music, a restaurant and a pool, making it a vibrant social spot.
However, there are several areas where the hotel falls short. Cleanliness is inconsistent with some guests noting very dirty conditions and unclean glasses. Issues with old mattresses, damp sheets and a noisy environment detract from the overall experience. The hostel is critiqued as being too expensive with the costs for shared and tiny rooms comparable to four-star hotels, yet the facilities and services provided do not justify the price. Breakfast options are also considered pricey and not satisfactory.
While the staff often exceed expectations, the overall sentiment suggests that Selina Casco Viejo offers a basic, minimalist experience that can be seen as more suitable for relaxed travelers. The concept of the Selina chain is recognized as very good, but improvements in cleanliness and value for money are needed to fully meet the three-star expectations.
