Cristo del Consuelo

Reception speak liitle English, front door of apartment had broken catch, although lock worked. Both bedroom and sitting room patio door locks were broken, so had to rely on roller blinds for security. No safe in room. Rooms are not serviced during stay - no cleaning or bed-making. There were only two clothes hangers in the wardrobe. Shower head was so clogged it wouldn't work without clearing with a pin. There was one tiny bar of soap in the bathroom, which disintegrated on first use. There was no hairdryer in the room. The kitchen area worktop was badly damaged. The television that was supposed to have 20 satellite channels had about 6 Spanish language channels only. There was a satellite box remote in the room, but no box! There was constant noise until very late from skateboard park adjacent to hotel. The building is a very long way from the centre of town, in what appears to be a rather scruffy area. The restaurant was closed on the Monday and Tuesday when we were there, and the bar that is used for breakfast was full of students smoking. However, the breakfast was adequate. There is no internet access available. Overall, this place cannot be recommended in any way. Use one of the town centre hotels.

Not in the cutest part of town but very convenient, nice and clean. We had a small appartment for a very reasonable price plus a parking space for a small additional fee. The best though is Cazorla. You can just walk up the hill from the Hotel and enter a completely different world of mountains, castles, small typical streets and animated plazas. WOW WOW! As strange as it may sound, this village was one of the highlights of our trip to Spain. It allowed us to get away from the busy life of cities and enter a more quiet space and time. Highly recommended. Thanks.
