Ok. This hotel is next to the highway and far away from downtown, so do not expect much. The good : well, it is great for those who get to Granada by car. The traffic in the city is terrible, so it is smart to leave your car at the free parking in front of the hotel. There is a bus stop a few blocks away, which goes to downtown in 20-30 minutes. They offer Internet access for free (bring your laptop), which is not common in Spain. The rooms are OK, spacious, clean, with everything a 4stars hotel should have.
The bad: breakfast!!! It is the worst buffet that I have seen in my entire life. The staff is not helpful enough but that is a general rule in southern Spain. Obviously, being next to the highway, the sourroundings are not great either.
My advise: stay there if you are driving and just visiting town a couple of days. If not, I would prefer to stay at a 2 or 3 stars hotel closer to the historic part of the city.
Remember: if you are visiting the "Alhambra", be there early in the morning, since there is a limited amount of visits allowed to the "nazaries" palaces. Lucky for me, I got my tickets, but have to wait several hours to be able to enter the place.
