Review

My husband and I rented this apartment in July, 2000 for 1 week. Located in the Albacin district across the ravine from the great Alhambra, Richard's studio apartment should be viewed as a treasure for those visiting Granada in southern Spain. The apartment is very reasonably priced, clean and cozy. Owners Richard and Pillar, both professionals, are very gracious and attentive to your needs.

Not far from the apartment is an inexpensive microbus that shuttles you down the hill through the central part of Granada and on to the base of the Alhambra where you can catch a connecting microbus to this incredible 13th century fortress.

Also within walking distance from the apartment are some wonderful restaurants. Ladrillo II was our favorite. A few blocks up the hill from there is the Mirador de San Nicolas which offers a spectacular view of the Alhambra. Best time to go is in the evening to see the Alhambra lit up against the back drop of the Sierra Nevadas. In the opposite direction from the Mirador is the Sacramonte, a district known for its gypsy caves and flamenco dancing.

I hope this gives you a little information. I think the web site really gives the details.
