This was a marvelous hotel. The room a little small (which seems to be the norm in Spain, from what I've seen and also heard from other travelers), but beautifully decorated, and spotlessly clean. The bathroom was good-sized, and even had a bidet! Our room was opposite an apartment building. The little amenities like soap, shampoo, etc, never seemed to stop. They even left us a sewing kit, dental kit, shaving kit, shoeshine kit--wow! Now, the best part was the breakfast, which they start to serve at 730, a very un-Spanish time but great for us tourists. They had a great selection of cereals, pastries, breads, cheese, chorizo and salchichon, Iberian ham, yoghurt, fresh fruit, coffee, chocolate or tea. If that wasn't enough, for no extra charge they'll cook you some eggs and bacon. It was wonderful! All this for 49 euros a night plus I think about 10 euros each for breakfast (I'm not quite sure about the breakfast price as my traveling companion paid this bill), which you have to pay whether you take the breakfast or not (but why skip it?)--that is still only 69 euros a night!
There is no free internet, but right across the street is a place where you can access the internet for only 30 cents for 15 minutes. The staff at the internet spot (I couldn't actually call it a cafe, although they sell snacks) is very friendly and helpful, even though they don't speak English, and my Spanish leaves a lot to be desired.
The location of the hotel is somewhat away from the Cathedral, etc, although you can walk there in perhaps 15-20 minutes. That being said, we caught a bus for the Alhambra right across the street. The busses come by VERY frequently, and it only costs a euro to go to the Alhambra, which I wouldn't recommend walking to, it's a real hike UP a hill. Of the three hotels we stayed in in Spain, this was the best, and a great bargain. Loved it!
