Fuentenueva

The hotel is not actually within the old city walls but very close and so convenient for sight seeing. I did not use a car but came by bus and the main bus station is a little walk but it is a level walk and no hills to climb! The reception at the hotel was good - I was checked in by Viktor and allocated a room on the front road side which at first I thought may be noisy but in practice it was fine. The room has A/C so no problem and although at first I had difficulty with the heat adjustment with the multi jet shower it was soon fixed by Viktor. Being a conversion from an old building the room ceilings are high, something which appeals. The morning breakfast was very nice with delicious toast and good array of the normal things you see in Andalucia especially the coffee. Viktor was helpful with arranging for a sightseeing tour and recommending places to have a bite to eat. I visited in September when the temperatures were still high and it was nice to be able to enjoy a drink or an ice cream outside. Whilst Baeza is a small town having only about 15,000 inhabitants I think it deserves a stay of 2 nights especially if arriving late one day becasue the place does put you into a relaxed frame of mind and should not be hurried in my opinion. I found the bed to be very comfortable !!! And WiFi worked fine.
