Guest Reviews
Location
For those traveling by car, the hotel's location proves convenient for exploring the broader region, including the Alhambra and other sights in Granada. Guests consistently noted the availability of free and easy parking, which is a significant advantage for drivers. Public transportation is also praised with a bus running frequently to the city center, making it accessible within a short ride.
However, the hotel's setting in an industrial area is less appealing to some, who find it remote and not aesthetically pleasing. The necessity of transportation – whether car or bus – to reach central Granada or to access amenities such as shops and restaurants is a commonly mentioned downside. While some found the distance and industrial surroundings disappointing, others viewed it as an acceptable trade-off for the hotel's calm environment and reasonable pricing.
Overall, Checkin Camino de Granada's location is ideal for those prioritizing easy access by car and tranquility over proximity to downtown Granada's vibrant center.
Breakfast
On the downside, several reviews point out a lack of variety and issues with replenishment with dishes often being empty especially towards the later part of the breakfast schedule. Some guests found the quality to be quite basic and expressed disappointment, citing incidents of cold or greasy food, poor organization and cleanliness issues. Despite these negatives, others felt that, given its moderate price, the breakfast provided decent value overall.
In summary, while the breakfast at 'Checkin Camino de Granada' garners positive remarks for being affordable and offering a decent range, it does suffer from inconsistencies in quality, variety and service that can affect the overall experience.
Dinner
The daily menu options and the themed dinner nights, like the barbecue, are exceptional, contributing to overall guest satisfaction. Although some reviews noted that the menu lacks variety and the food's high prices, the restaurant is still frequently described as great with good quality offerings and efficient service from the waitstaff.
Despite a few criticisms on the high cost of dishes and limited menu variety, the dining experience, particularly at the outdoor seating and the terrace, generally receives positive feedback. The combination of delicious food, the beautiful poolside setting and attentive staff make dining at Checkin Camino de Granada a memorable part of the stay.
Rooms
However, the state of the rooms often deviates from expectations for a four-star hotel. Additionally, some of the room decorations and furnishings are deemed outdated and somewhat worn out with instances of old furniture and inadequate maintenance being noted.
Noise levels are another point of contention; rooms are repeatedly mentioned as noisy with poor soundproofing contributing to disturbances. There were mentions of facilities needing significant upgrades and renovations, such as small, outdated TVs and occasional issues with room amenities like non-functioning telephones and showers.
Despite these drawbacks, the overall comfort of the rooms, the good pool view from certain rooms and some of the facilities managed to leave a positive impression. The corrective actions provided by the hotel staff, such as immediate room changes when problems arose, also seemed to mitigate some of the issues experienced by guests.
Ultimately, while rooms are praised for their size and basic comfort, the need for modernization and improved sound insulation is evident from guest feedback, suggesting significant room for improvement to meet four-star standards.
Beds
However, there are notable concerns raised consistently. A considerable number of reviews pointed out issues with mattress quality, describing them as old, sunken and sometimes even broken with springs that were felt. Several guests mentioned that the beds seem basic with one going so far as to say the bed might have come from a garage sale. There were also frequent mentions of uncomfortable and thin pillows which detracted from the sleep experience. The mismatch between expected and actual bed type, such as receiving two single beds instead of a requested double, was also a point of contention for some visitors.
Overall, while many guests were pleased with the comfort of the beds, a significant number pointed out the need for some improvements to the bedding to meet expectations for comfort, especially considering the hotel's category.
Cleanliness
However, these positive experiences were countered by numerous reports of lackluster cleaning standards. Several reviews highlighted dirty common areas, including the pool and breakfast area and mentioned issues with dirty towels, stained floors and dusty surfaces. Specific complaints included hair on sheets and in the bathroom, mold in bathrooms and stained furniture. Some guests even encountered cobwebs under furniture and sticky floors, which significantly detracted from their stay.
Overall, while some guests found their rooms clean and comfortable, others felt the hotel did not meet their cleanliness expectations, citing a need for improvement in both room maintenance and general hygiene practices.
Staff
Guests appreciated the personal attention they received with many noting the staff's efforts to make them feel welcome and valued. The reception staff frequently receives praise for being responsive and accommodating, even to the point of accepting early check-ins and showing guests around. The waitstaff and housekeepers are equally commended for their affable and efficient service, enhancing the overall guest experience.
Although there were a few mentions of staff feeling overwhelmed or appearing understaffed, the overwhelming sentiment remains positive. Guests identify the staff as a pivotal asset to the hotel, contributing significantly to their enjoyable stay through their warmth and professionalism.
In summary, the Checkin Camino de Granada excels in customer service with a staff that consistently goes above and beyond to ensure guest satisfaction. Their friendly demeanor and attentiveness create a welcoming atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression on visitors.
Wi-Fi
Gym
However, there are significant concerns regarding the maintenance and condition of the equipment. Several guests have highlighted that the fitness room needs an update, mentioning that specific machines, such as the elliptical trainers, treadmills and spin machines, are lacking or not functioning. Issues of neglect and a poor state of repair are common themes with terms like neglected, abandoned and outdated frequently mentioned. There are reports of the gym being in poor condition and in some cases, it was even closed.
Overall, while the gym has the potential to be a good facility due to its size and range of equipment, the current state of upkeep leaves much to be desired for many guests.
Pool
However, there are several concerns regarding the cleanliness and maintenance of the pool. Numerous reviews highlight that the pool was dirty at times with instances of dead insects and trash being noted. Some guests found the pool facilities neglected and in need of better upkeep. The limited number of lounge chairs was also pointed out as an issue, causing overcrowding.
Additionally, the pool's operating hours have been criticized for closing too early and there were instances where guests found the pool closed during their stay, which was particularly disappointing for summer visitors.
Despite these issues, the clean and good comments indicate that guests who visited the pool at the right times had a generally positive experience. Overall, while the pool area has great potential and is well-loved by some, consistent maintenance and extended hours could significantly enhance the guest experience.
Parking
However, several guests noted certain challenges. Some mentioned that the parking space in the hotel's underground lot can be difficult to access and is not well-marked. Others found the entrance to the parking lot too narrow for larger vehicles and were disappointed by the parking fee of 6 euros that was sometimes added to their bill. The underground parking area was also described as gloomy and inconvenient with no direct pedestrian access to the hotel.
Despite these few concerns, many guests found the overall parking experience satisfactory with plenty of available spaces nearby. For those looking for a straightforward parking solution, the convenience and abundance of free street parking seem to outweigh the minor inconveniences.
Family

Overall, Checkin Camino de Granada stands out as a great option for family stays, providing a comfortable and enjoyable experience for both adults and children.
4 Star
Cleanliness of the rooms has been generally acceptable; however, the aging infrastructure and minimal upkeep have not resonated well with guests expecting four-star quality. The value for money is deemed mediocre with the majority feeling that the services provided do not justify the hotel's advertised rating. Many suggest that the hotel once perhaps met the four-star criteria but argue that it has since declined and no longer lives up to its four-star claim. Overall, if one is to book a stay at Checkin Camino de Granada, they should manage their expectations and not anticipate the luxury and service typically associated with a four-star hotel.
