first time at the apartments they were basic holiday rooms but fairly clean we received clean towels every 2 days the apartments were in excellent location for the beach shops and pubs

The appartment was really smelly due to the toilet, could have done with more towel changes and toilet roll(had to buy our own), ants all over the place. Great location close to everthing we needed. Maids and receptionsts were nice, can't say same about management. Entertainment can't say much about it was alright I suppose. We would never go back, I know we paid for basic but we have been on better caravan holidays. I feel the hotel needs a good revamp as it is really run down, it looks good from the outside but rooms are a let down.

hotel was nice and clean are room was cleaned often had plenty of clean towels

I was really worried following the reviews I had read regarding the cleanliness of the hotel and diabolical entertainment. All I can say that none of it was true. It was spotless, staff were pleasant and did anything for you without any problems. In fact it was as good as a four star I had stayed in a few years ago the only difference is I didn't get my bed made everyday, but for two grand less I am quite happy to make my own bed. It was basic with a two ring cooker with kettle and fridge, you can hire a toaster. A good size bathroom, very comfortable beds and lots of mirrors. Both my children were entertained from morning till night I thought impossible considering the age gap 9 and 15 years. My mum who is 65 described it as "Butlins abroad". Although we were self-catering we ate at the hotel nearly everyday as the food was the same price as going out and the children wouldn't go out, and ate locally in the evening making sure we returned for the kids entertainment.There is lots of Bingo, darts, pool, water polo, creative activities go on all day. The hotel is a fifteen minutes walk from the centre of Salou but very close to shops, bars and restaurants. No problems for disabled guests as there are ramps and the lifts worked well.

i read most of the reviews about the hotel and thought it can't be that bad.Guess what been very suprised and impressed, the hotel was very clean and the food was good.The staff very friendly,we stayed on the 5th floor and NEVER once seen the security guard on that floor infact we never seen him at all in hotel the time we were there.The entertainment during the day was good for the kids,well my 13yrs old boy enjoyed it.The pools were good size and liked the idea of the sunbeds been free!!! The location of the hotel very good only a few minutes away from the town center,but there were shops,bars and restaurant near by.You MUST try "THE COMDEY BAR" very good food and huge portions its just across the road to The International 11.Enjoyed it that much that were looking into booking up again next year.A family holiday in a truly family hotel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hotel in a great spot close to everything you need easy walking to beach and shops. The entertainment was great loved Tom and Nicola they are great with the kids brilliant.

Have just booked again for this accommodation for next year already!!

When we first arrived we were greeted by a lovely receptionist and were given an apology that we could not be provided with a room next door to the 2 other familes we were with, however we didn't ind that and we were actually given rooms that on the same floor and were a few seconds walk away. I also have to mention that our friends actually stayed in room 533 and there was no problems with it, no security guard standing outside chatting up people etc!!

The rooms were very clean and tidy, plenty of towels and sheets given to us and were very suitable for 6 of us. The 4 kids slept on the sofa bed and there was still room to squeeze another in one night! The balconies are a very good size aswell and we were able to put all the kids toys, travel cot and pram on it and still have room to sit!! Rooms were cleaned on a Wednesday and Saturday morning, cleaners always knocked on the door before entering and actually waited for a reply! If you didn't want the room ceaned that was fine, the whole 2 weeks we were there I only let them clean it once as I was ding it with the mop and brush everyday due to having 4 kids in the room! The other times I just asked for clean towels and new rubbish bags.
The poolside was spotless, not a piece of litter in sight and the lifeguard never left his spot and was always very alert. Plenty of sunbeds around and there was no need for us to go down and book our beds which was great. There are also a good lot of Parasols provided also which was great for us with 9 kids in total!

The location of the apartments was excellent! just a five minute walk from the street of shops and there are 4 supermarkets within a 2 minute walk from the front door. However we had to make a 20min trip to the beach a few times as the beach closest to us had a lot of steps that had to be walked down and up, and it just wasn't accessable for us with a twin pram, the other families with prams, as well as everything else that was needed. Although that is not the apartments fault.
There is a couple of eating places near hand, and Burger King is about 10 minutes walk away which was handy for us, however we ate out in the bar of the apartments most days. Very reasonably priced, lovely food and cater for everyone!

The enterainment at the hotel during the day was brilliant, Tom who seems to be the main man there was excellent and was very good with the kids and adults alike. Playing games with everyone, and showing the kids how to make kiddie cocktails, and the adults adult ones! The Water Polo Matches were always a great laugh, my husband and the other 2 enjoyed these also. The men also enjoyed the Pool competitions in the bar and the Dart competetions too. While myself and the girls enjoyed playing the Snowball bingo, and the kids loved clapping to the song lol.
I have to admit though that I cannot comment on the night entertainment as we went out to Rafferty's down the street, Christy's which is about a 10minute walk away and Murphy's which is just around the corner. Also fitted in some shopping too lol.

We've already booked for next year again, and one of the familes with us are going back in August!

Myself and three friends stayed at the International 2 for one week.
From reading reports on internet we really had mixed thoughts on what to expect, but on arrival we were pleased by wht we saw.
All staff were friendly and not a bad word can be said about them 24hr reception and security was handy when returning from a night out.
Two bars and snack bar were lunch was cheap but nice.
Towels where changed three times within the week and room was cleaned twice.
Entertain was good and water polo was a must to cool off in the afternoon.

A trip to portaventura is well worth the money, also air conditioning in room is great when returning from a long hot day shopping.

Clubs and bars were good they catered for all ages.

on a whole we throughly enjoyed our stay at the international 2 and we would return again.

the original holiday from hell. Place was very very very dirty, unhelpful staff and constant noise from out of control children and young adults screaming and running up and down corridors at all hours of day and night
had t ask to get the bedding changed. When I did she walked away and came back 10 minutes later with clean?? sheets, handed them to me and walked away again. Did not take the old ones away and did not make the bed. Many others also complained about the dirty conditons in and around the hotel only to be told, it a 2 star hotel what do you expect. Words fail me

On arrival hotel looked nice from the outside, walking into the reception area, things looked promising. Entered the room and it is the biggest shithole I have ever stayed in, in my life. I would have sooner spent 2 weeks sleeping in cardboard city in the London Docklands. The room was filthy, the sheets were stained, had holes in them and smelt of piss. When you went to the bathroom you were greeted by the wondering around of poor Spanish ants, trying to escape a fate worse than death. Towels were changed 4 times over the 2 weeks and the bed linen once. Room was never cleaned, had to do this ourselves, even though our mop was full of hairs and didn
