Pensión Benavente is a small, 3-star guesthouse in Moncofar, Spain, set on Carrer de Jacinto Benavente 2.

The standout for many guests is the complimentary self-serve breakfast, which makes mornings easy if you’re planning a beach day or a drive along the coast. Free WiFi helps for quick planning, and luggage storage is useful if your schedule doesn’t line up with check-in and check-out.
Rooms are kept comfortable with air conditioning and include practical touches like microwaves, plus shared kitchen access for guests who like flexibility. Bathrooms come with showers and hair dryers, and housekeeping is available on request, which some visitors appreciate for maintaining privacy. Wheelchair accessibility is listed, and there’s an accessible shuttle noted as available, but there is also a “no accessible shuttle” policy entry, so it’s worth confirming what will work for your specific needs.
