Compared to the immediate area, this hotel is considerably nicer in aesthetics and cleanliness. However, this hotel appears to be just that.
Pros:
- close to the Alhambra, quite literally 2 minutes walk from the main entrance
- it’s next to a cute rooftop restaurant Jardines Alberto and the food is not bad
- if you’re planning to visit the Hammam Al Ándalus as well, it’s a 15-20 minute walk. A tad challenging on the road’s inclines but easy enough to get to
- the staff at reception are really friendly and helpful
Cons:
- not sound proof at all. You could hear people in the halls talking and closing their doors and everything else in between
- the restaurant is really understaffed especially at night, makes it hard to enjoy service when there’s only 2 gentlemen that are doing room service AND taking orders in the dining room and lobby bar
- food is mediocre especially for the price
- breakfast buffet is underwhelming. It’s a very small corner at the back of the restaurant with limited options compared to a lot of other buffets
- could see mildew and mold in the grout between the shower tiles.
- it’s quite far up the hill which makes it difficult if you want to go and explore the city or other food options in the immediate area
