Hotel Alibi

Cozy hotel in a peaceful neighborhood within a short walking distance from the beach, restaurants and train station. Friendly staff is present 24h and gave good recommendations on restaurants nearby. Also the possibility of late check-in was really useful. Breakfast is not a typical buffet, rather there is a possibility to choose from a salty or a sweet meal which were both good in quality and size.

We had a twin/double room and the beds were clearly two separate single beds arranged next to one another with a thin mattress on top, hence they easily got separated and a big crack between mattresses could be seen/felt. Hairdryer in the bathroom worked well, though the handle fell and the machine started running on its own a few times couple of minutes after having used it. Another minor thing to note for late sleepers is that the daily cleaning was usually done already shortly after 10am.

I arrived pretty late due to flight and train delays, but there was no problem checking in at 11pm. Check-in was simple and all they needed was the passport. There's a city tax which wasn't charged until check out My room was on the 2nd floor and there's a lift. The ensuite bathroom had a walk-in shower, toilet, bidet and sink, with towels provided. Water pressure in the shower was excellent and there was no problem getting hot water. The room also has a desk, but no chair. The staff were kind enough to get me a chair after I made a request for one. The hotel has a lovely courtyard with a garden and lots of seating sheltered under gazebos. On a sunny day, it’s lovely to sit in the courtyard. The room had a small balcony with just enough room to stand and overlooked the courtyard. Pleasant, but not all that useful. There's WiFi throughout the hotel, with no problem getting a signal anywhere on the hotel grounds. It worked well. Location wise, the hotel is 10 minutes walk to the beach, beaches 28 to 32 if walking directly towards the sea, about 15 minutes to Rimini FS train station and about 20 minutes walk into town. The building is in an area mix of residential housing and converted hotels. Overall, I had a good stay. The rooms are slightly old fashioned, but comfortable. The staff are welcoming and friendly. For the price paid, there’s not a lot to complain about.

The room was supposed to be a double, but the bed was obviously two singles pushed together. The mattress was soft. Although it was comfortable enough, it was uncomfortable where the two mattresses joined.

I just needed a stay near the train station where I could check-in late (around midnight), crash for the night, get up early and catch the San Marino bus. Not only did this place tick all my boxes but the cleanliness and comfort of it were above my expectations too. The gentleman at the reception couldn’t speak English well, but he was very kind and we managed just fine at the end.

As you’d expect, rooms don’t have AC (at least mine didn’t) so it can get a little too warm. Walls must be thin too, if you’re a light sleeper other people can also be of disturbance especially if your room is near the entrance.

Excellent location, very close to the beach and lively bars and pubs. Also very clean - our room got cleaned the next day even though we were staying just for 2 nights! Staff also very helpful - they gave us great recommendations for places and even a discount for a nearby restaurant.

The beds and the pillows were not comfortable at all but for a few days it was ok. Our room was also extremely hot, even though outside it was 18 degrees, so we didn't understand where was this warmth coming from and had to sleep with windows wide open.

The room was big enough and also about 3 mins from the beach :) Store Conad about 12 mins from the accommodation (top tip - try to avoid the Conad store near beach, too small, overpriced and not good at all). Go for the one near train station :) Bonus : we arrived earli er by 3 hours, our room was ready so they let us in earlier. That was a nice gesture! :)

The location was very good, close to the beach and many restraunts. Room was a bit too small, but ok for a short stay. Nice green garden in front of the building.

Wifi was really bad. Cell phone Signal was poor in our room. Hair dryer is too old. A small fridge in the room would be also good to have.

Overall I am happy with my stay at Alibi. It was a last moment booking with a limited budget, so I wasn't expecting much :) Yet still, it was a good value for money. The hotel is one among the closest to the small free beach (the larger one is 15-20 walking minutes away though). In addition very nice and friendly staff + pets allowed. I and my family enjoyed it :):)

The mattresses could've been softer ;)

Great location. 15 minute walk to train station. Close to beach and restaurants. Breakfast was ok for €6. Comfortable bed. 24 hour reception.

The step directly outside the bathroom door could be dangerous at nightime. The strictly no personal drink or food at antime in your room is a little restrictive. The lack of a fridge to keep drinking water cold is a drawback.

Very clean hotel. Staff is nice. Good location.

Walls are very thin and I would not recommend this hotel to people that sleep light. I was waking up 10 times every night because I heard the elevator, or people coming back, or the cleaning lady vacuuming and moving furniture at 8 in the morning.

The staf was very pleasant snd polite. The room was small, but we had 1 double and 1 single bed in the room. The location is convenient, the park is very close to hotel, the sea is also close, the old town is not far away. We spent here just 1 night, but it was a good experience.
