The location was convenient, with access to nearby attractions.

The soundproofing was poor. Street noise was noticeable early in the morning. the bathroom lacked a heater, and it was quite cold. I also found the lighting in the room insufficient.

The LOCATION was good near the bus to Alhambra and the Catedral area.

The room seemed run DOWN. It needed a paint job, and one socket looked unsafe to use. Much hair was on the bed and towels.
