Hotel Rosa D´Oro
Beautiful location. Very friendly check in staff. A bit disappointed in our room. View to the Alhambra was limited by the windowed structure on the balcony which was not in any of the room photos when booking. Quite loud street noise and the bathroom is a bit worn (broken floor tile).

Casa Morisca Hotel Boutique
The location of the hotel is perfect for visiting the Alhambra, the room was clean (though quite compact) and the staff was courteous. It would be an improvement if a small pod style coffee machine was added as an amenity in the room, since only instant coffee and a kettle were provided in room.
