The property is well placed, close to the river and the ancient city. The staff are lovely and helpful and the property is very clean. The decor is a little faded but everything is in working order. Breakfast is served in the hotel opposite and is very good. I would definitely book again.

The room was basic but you had what you needed. This included a fridge. I liked the shower which was powerful and towels were provided and replaced each day. Shampoo, body wash and soap also provided. House staff made bed for you and tidied room, Not much of view from my room other than side of the building but in Spain you spend more time out then in so I was not bothered. Check-in was easy. Comfortable bed. Quite central, Couple minutes from the bridge, wheel. Happy to use in future.

Everything was clean and working in the room, if a little dated and in need of a freshen up. But for the price it was suitable and handy for the historical centre. Unfortunately my room was right next to the lift so some noise was heard.

I stayed at the Universal for 11 nights. My room was clean, the sheets and blankets as good as new, and attended to every day. It was quiet with no traffic noise and the occasional sounds from other rooms stopped at a reasonable hour. The staff were all friendly, helpful and simpatico. The hotel is in an excellent location about 8 minutes walk to the Cathedral the heart of historic Murcia. The Universal is completely unpretentious, great value for money and I will definitely return.

The single room was as expected, although tight on space in the en-suite it had everything i needed and was clean and the bed comfy. The only problem is the tv is positioned too high on the wall so you cannot see the picture on the screen properly. It needs to be lowered. Overall a pleasant stay for a very reasonable price.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Really poor

I always try to be positive, but, this was one of the poorest hotels we have stayed at. As we approached the hotel we thought it was shut as it was so dimly lit. The receptionist wasn't positive or welcoming, reflecting the ambience in the foyer. The bedroom was very small room and an even smaller bathroom. Mold on the ceiling in the bathroom. We could hear everything from the next rooms..... everything! As people came in through the night their movements and chatter resonated through our room. The bedding smelled stale and the room had the odour of smoking. There was a total of one electrical socket for two people by the beds, but no electrical socket by the desk and chair. The TV was so small it was virtually impossible to see from being in bed. The one positive - the shower was warm. If we could have left for another hotel after checking in, we would have. In light of our experience we chose not to have breakfast, in preference using one of the cafeterias in the vicinity.
