My colleague and I were in Motril for work purposes and Elba Motril B&B Resort was recommended to us as an alternative. Very handly to the Marina where we were working. Probably the best option in the area with secure onsite parking for €6 euros per day. The parking spaces were the biggest I've encountered, I have a BMW 5 series and we fit into the parking space with room to spare.
Never had the chance to use the pool although it was noticeably smaller than depicted on Hotels.com. A plunge pool probably, rather than a lap pool. The interior decor leading to the rooms was interesting, lots of neon and very Las Vegas if that's your thing. The rooms are big, marble clad and has a safe and minibar etc. The sea views looked better on Hotels.com but we were out all day anyway, so made little difference to us. Not exactly attractive looking out over a series of old garages towards the beach about 500 meters away. Staff were great, super polite and helpful. Lots of food and a ton of selection for breakfast, lunch and dinner which was thought provoking as there weren't that many guests onsite so I wonder what happens to all the remaining food at the end of service...
and I'm talking about ALOT of food! Hopefully, not all into the rubbish bins! I paid for the rooms and all meals which was really handy and excellent value for money! The only hotel that has offered this service so far. Motril close to the marina unfortunately didn't have much to offer but again it was only 3 days.
