In my recent trip to Granada, whose main objective was rediscover the Alhambra, I had the opportunity to stay in an apartment in the charming Albaicín neighborhood.
In recent months, on several trips I have opted for the tourist apartment formula instead of the hotel's.
And on this occasion, furthermore, I was interested in staying in such an emblematic place in Grenada such as the aforementioned Albaicín neighborhood, which I remind you is part of the list of Heritage for the Unesco.
The and advantages which, from my point of view, has stay in a tourist apartment It's that you really feel at home.
Furthermore, compared to a hotel, the quality/price ratio is much better given that you can enjoy spacious and comfortable accommodation, and with all the necessary equipment to have autonomy at meal time, if you prefer, or at other times. activities during your stay.
Of course, if you travel with family or friends it becomes a much more suitable type of accommodation than the hotel.
For choice of apartment I have tried the services again Villas.com, tourist apartment website that I already used in my trip to Rioja from last summer.
If you don't know her yet, I'll tell you that Villas.com is the apartment website Booking.com, the world leader in tourist accommodation, with more than 825.000 establishments and properties and more than 285 million guests during the last year.
Therefore when you access Villas.com Its operation is so familiar to you, which gives you complete confidence.
Apartments in Albaicín
When look for an apartment in the Albaicín, you find a wide and interesting offer. And to be able to choose, you have very extensive information, just as you already know about Booking.com.
Firstly, a large photo gallery, which will allow you to see the characteristics of the different apartments, as well as their location in the Albaicín, in many cases with the Alhambra as a great visual protagonist.
You also have extensive information about the general equipment of the establishment, as well as each of the apartments, with the possibility of selecting the type of apartment and the capacity that best suits your needs, and its availability dates.
And, of course, you have a Interactive map which allows you to see the exact location of the different apartments offered in the Albaicín, even if they are no longer available on the dates you are looking for.
In my case I chose Smart Suites, an apartment building located in the heart of Albaicín, just five minutes from the new Square, and on the other hand, also just five minutes from the iconic place that is the Saint Nicholas' lookout.
With a simple but comfortable decoration type Ikea, in these apartments I was able to enjoy the feeling of being almost at home, and in an ideal location for visit of Granada.
In addition to its location, another advantage that these apartments have is the availability of parking, where the car was kept safe throughout the stay in the Nasrid city.
Of course, I can tell you that it is not easy to navigate the narrow streets of this labyrinthine neighborhood, and the navigator does not offer you the precise information to do so, so you will need to follow the advice offered in the reservation receipt.
In short, a good accommodation experience in an apartment in the iconic neighborhood of Granada.
