Disappointed!
TERRIBLE location if you are renting a car! We had to PAY a tourist guide from the Department of Tourism 10 Euros so that he could escort us while on his motorcycle!

Not half bad
Could pass as a 4-star hotel in an excellent tourist location, at the very gate of the Alhambra. But the management is limited, the restaurant awful, and there are not many people around to help. Pity the rooftop pool is tawdry and unheated. The place is really OK for an out of town resort, cheap too.

Trip to Alhambra
Alhambra's entry is a short 5 minute walk from alixares which is important as is better to buy the ticket in the early morning. People start doing the line at 7 am though alhambra opens at 8 am. They have buffet for the 3 meals at a good price. You can leave your bags there if you have check out and pick them up later. A taxi to the renfe station was 8 euros.

Location is fantastic!
cute rooms. windows that open. plenty of parking. little fridges to cool drinks. The location is fantastic. it's about 50 - 75 yards to the Alhambra entrance. There's also a fantastic pizza joint just down the street. The pool is great as well. Rooms are shaped differently, but we had a great time staying there. Just park the car and walk to the Alhambra. Also take the public bus straight into old town Granada for the sights.

We found reception desk very helpful.
We found reception desk very helpful. Hotel buffet was excellent relative to the price. Environment near by the hotel was super: beautiful walking down to the small river and then up to the highhest point of Albaicin.

Second time I have stayed here.
Second time I have stayed here. Much the same comments as last time except the room was bigger but the TV smaller. They must have scoured all the electronic warehouses in Andalucia to find a TV as small as the one in our room! The room my daughter was in had lights that continued to flicker even when switched off. Great location but not really up to 4 star standard!
