Disappointing

Disappointing stay. It felt like a B grade Parador, with sections cordoned off. Room with view over motorway didn’t help. While loading cases into car, the grass sprinkler system came on, soaking me, my cases and the boot of the car. All round, just a bit tacky.

Wonderful parador at the edge of town. Easy to access from the main road and easy walk to the center of town. Free parking on site. Shampoo, conditioner and shower gel dispenser. Lotion dispenser, bar of soap, comb and shower cap also provided. Refrigerator and safe in room. We didn’t eat at the restaurant on site. Instead, we had tapas at La Alameda near Iglesia de San Nicolas—fabulous molleja (sweetbread) and tinto de verano (similar to sangria).

Almost perfect.

Typical for a Paradore. Everything you need is available. The indoor pool is not huge but better than nothing. Covered outside parking was good for me. Access to the centre of the town is a short flat walk.
