It's very comforting, every day of the week the streets and pubs are filled with people

How much does it cost to live in Granada?

Prices are really cheap

Is it difficult to find accommodation in Granada? Is there any advice you can give?

It's not difficult to find a good place to live. If it's possible it's better to speak with some local because usually renting companies are taking advantage of students that don't have experience in renting an apartment for the first time and sometimes they are bad people.

What is the food like? What are your favourite dishes?

Food is great, you can find international cuisine and fast food. Also when you order a drink or beer in a bar, some tapas are included, so you can eat well for the price of two drinks.

What places would you recommend visiting in Granada?

Obviously the Alhambra and the area of Albayzin, but also Realejo, Pedro Antonio (bars and pubs street). Just lose yourself and explore.
