We picked this hotel based on the location on the map on the Kayak site, price and free parking. The hotel is far away from what was shown on Kayak's map. It is across the river to the north-west in the Olympic village which is really deserted. We used Google map on my iPad to navigate to the hotel and the road leading to the hotel does not exist. We circled for over a hour and despite help from several people plus talking to the front desk at the hotel by phone, we still could not find the hotel. The area looked super deserted and lots of weed fields. Finally we stopped into the Police station nearby and got the proper directions. The building the hotel is in is actually the football stadium (Estadio Olimpico de Sevilla). That is why we kept driving around and saw nothing that looks like a hotel. It is hidden behind a deserted parking lot which is under highway SE-30 that is growing a lot of weeds. To reach it, you drive North along Ave Carlos III and take the SE-30 East exit, half way into the exit ramp, bear right on the Y and then take a left under the highway into a large deserted parking lot that is growing a lot of weeds. Go past the big iron gates and the hotel will then show up to the right of the stadium structure. The girl at the front desk kept apologizing for not able to help us.
The rooms are large and clean although the bathroom is very basic. Beds are very stiff. Breakfast is pretty good for 8 euros and overlooks the entire stadium. I would never have picked this place if the map on Kayak was correct.
