Disappointing location, staff could be more helpful.
Car parking space is reserved in a public car park two blocks away which cost €12 per night. The room was very small and quite basic. Overall the hotel would benefit from significant modernisation. You get what you pay for.

Not satisfied at Akkad, booked 3 rooms and all dis
Misleading information in the web, the location of the hotel was not at the beach as indicated, the rooms smell bad, the area ugly, definitely not a 3 star hotel, all 6 people very disappointed with this selection. Beachfront hotel is not even near, was actually close to the port, bad and definitely not recommended

great location
this hotel is right in the middle of Santander, easy access to all locations. The staff where really helpful and friendly. The hotel has a computer with free access to internet and free wifi. The room was pleasant enough. There is a small bar next to reception but we did not use it. Would recommend for price and location.
