Apartamentos Tivoli - Ibiza, Spain     

Arriving at the Tivoli at 4am four tired adults and four tired kids aged from 10-15 only to find the room not available was not an experience i care to repeat. i had read previous reviews albeit after i had booked and paid, so decided to ring the company i had booked through, i mentioned my concerns only to be told that i woukd receive a call without fail if there was any such problem!. So off we went happy (so we thought ) in the knowledge that no news is good news. when we had arrived at the Tivoli we went straight to reception where we were told there was a problem with the water and that we were being put in the Noria (now that place is another story). having just paid for the two taxi's from the airport and reading previous reviews i insisted that they would pay for two more taxi's to transfer us and our luggage and by now four miserable tired kids. although the noria can be seen from the tivoli dragging cases and kids 200 yards up the road at 4.15am was a no go from the start, they did order and pay for the taxi's and off we went. at 8am i was back at the tivoli after a short and very unpleasent stay at the noria where there was no air con and a foul stench and a plague of mosquito, to enquire as to what was happening to our two elusive apartments. i was told that we would have the key to at least one of them by 11am so after breakfast we did infact receive the key to the one and by two o'clock we had the other, although the water was never to appear in the kitchen in the 2nd apartment. it didnt ruin the holiday although little things like the pool not being cleaned out and the rather rude night staff didnt help but i would definately say if you are arriving at night be prepared to have an onward journey for at least the first night and good luck

Stayed at the tivoli august 2005.Booked it pretty late and was worried that it might not be too good because it was cheap.I needn't have worried the place was spotless with 24 hour reception which was handy as we checked in,in the middle of the night.The hotel is basic and yeah the decor does look like ikea on a bad day but at least it has had a lick of paint.The rooms were spacious and the A/C in the living area and bedrooms is a godsend.Kitchen area very basic but for what you cook on holiday was sufficient.The big plus for this hotel was the helpful staff and the cleanliness.I had a problem with the cooker ring and a man was sent and fixed it within 5 minutes he also showed me how to operate the A/C.I know its sad but I counted 13 cleaners from my balcony one morning,pretty impressive for a budget hotel.Its well placed for the beach(5 mins walk) the Bora Bora beach bar is lively and the reggae bar near where you catch the boat taxi to Ibiza town is great for just chilling.Overall I can recommend this hotel if you want a comfortable place to crash and enjoy the beach life during the day(the dance music played all day by the pool did get on your nerves) but if you're looking for some luxury and to be pampered you better look elsewhere.
