Experience in Jaén, Spain by Marta

What do you think about living in Jaén? Do you recommend it? How is it?

I'm studying in Jaén and it's a quiet and small city, but it's really nice and everything is near.

I recommend it, because it's easy to discover it completely, it's close to other cities and, though there isn't much party, there are good places to go out.
