Be great to have recommendations for a good restaurant near Placa Glorieta open evenings for next week. Traditional Spanish would be super. Preferably not Asian, Chinese. Doesn't have to be posh or Michelin starred! Just good food and great atmosphere. Thanks

Hi there. Hope someone can help. I'm unsure of the bus stops in Elche for the L1A and L1B from the airport. Where would I get off nearest to walk to the Hotel Elche Centro?  Thanks!

We have recently moved into our house near La Hoya. There is a lot of trees and bushes that have been cut down and piled in a corner. Is there a certain time of year that you and cannot have a bonfire?

Many thanks

Hi can anyone tell me if I can rent a car park space in the actual terminal building car park for long term stays? We have a property near Alcoy and can never get a taxi to take us there when we visit from UK it's too far and too expensive. We have our own car so would make more sense to actually park at the airport but do not really want to use a shuttle service. Thank you 😊

Hi,

About 14 years ago on my very first visit to Alicante I was driving from the Alicante Airport and when I approached a small quiet roundabout near campamore area, there was a young woman dressed normally and waved me down frantically like she was in distress, me being green I slowed down and she came running towards me, when I asked what's wrong, what's happened, she said do you want business? I said what do you mean she said, sex, no no I thought you were hurt or in trouble. I said sorry, and drove off.

When I told some friends about this the next day they laughed at me and said, you had better get used to this they are every where.

Sure enough, two out of every three roundabouts I came to had women there looking like they were lost or waiting for a lift, I soon wised up and after a few days it became normal to see and it was just one of those things you get used too.

In recent years I have never seen any girls any more, it looks like they have now stopped, which is a great thing, because it can affect property prices. 

It has never bothered me before but as I am now looking for a proroperty to buy I wondered if there were any places that should be avoided because of it being rough, violent or having ladies of the night around such areas, or indeed just have a bad reputation for one thing or another.

What I don't want is to find a place that looks fantastic in the day time, it be a real bargain, only to find that in the night time it changes.

I can't think of a better way to find out than to ask on a forum like this, because no estate agent or property businesses are ever going to tell you the truth about troubled areas or areas with bad reputations, if they want their commissions.

Thanks for reading.

Hi everyone

We have a Ikea six drawer unit for sale. It is in perfect condition and is fully constructed. It was bought to go into a smaller bedroom however we decided on a double bed in the room and thus require a smaller storage unit. Hardly used and in like new condition. As per the size as per the attached images which we took yesterday in a UK branch of Ikea although the unit is in our Elche apartment. We have a lift so no issues getting the unit from the apartment to a vehicle. Collection only as we cannot deliver otherwise we would take back for a partial or full refund as less than 12 months old. Cost around 100 Euros and although in perfect condition will accept 50.00 Euros ono. NOW 30 Euros.....

Best wishes Andy & Josephine

Unit can be collected from w/c 14.03.2024
