No title - expert review Although the rooms themselves at this cost-conscious hotel have none of the architectural modernista grandeur that characterizes the foyer and splendidly elegant dining room, they're well scrubbed, comfortably sized, and outfitted with functional furniture and neatly kept bathrooms containing tub/sh... frommers.com
My stay in a Spanish Jail - user review I stayed at the hotel on a school visit and was suprised at how basic the hotel was. Although an attempt had been made to patch up some rooms on the higher floors, pipework and cracks were visable in most rooms. The centeral courtyard could be a shot location for a scene in Bad Girls, with the tall ... fodors.com
Is this even classed as a hotel, I´ve had a better stay in travel lodge! - user review I visited the hotel on a school trip. And we were first greeted with the view of a back alley which was home to beggars, prostitutes, druggies and gangs.

My stay in a Spanish jail: Part 3 ( due to popular demand) - user review Without sounding repetetive, its me again. I beleive that Hotel Espana holidays should be sold with a goverment health warning. This is because the food cannot be up to the safe standard, in fact, i wouldent feed some of the courses to a skinny dog. Talk about Gordan Ramseys Kitchen Nightmares. Anot... fodors.com
My stay in a Spanish Jail- Part 2 - user review Yes... its me again, ready for another rant about the slum. Outside of the hotel: prostitutes, beggers, all whafes and strays realy. The hotel was situated on a dingey backstreat and lacked class and style. The hotel was used as a german brothel/ drugs den, activities in which we were encouraged to ... fodors.com
