This is our Budget pick in Algeciras. It suits ferry travellers, drivers and anyone who needs a clean, spacious room for a night or two without paying extra for facilities they will not use. Pets are listed as allowed.
Skip it if you want more than the basics. The property lists a restaurant, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning, but no pool or gym. Light sleepers who need soft beds should also read the bed comments below.
