I had very little time to spend in Cadiz, yet a whole lot to see. It’s a shame that I didn’t get to spend more time in Cadiz; it was by far one of my favorite cities in Andalucia because the tourism is less commercialized and the city is just less congested overall. Never once did I feel like I was getting ripped off for dinner or had to wait in a long line at the entrance of the museum.
Spa Senator, on the other hand, is a different story. I paid approximately 95 euro a night for a single occupancy room; by European standards, Spa Senator is probably a 2 or 3 star hotel (but is advertised on the website as something much fancier — a 4 star hotel). The lobby has a kitschy Andalucian vibe, with faux-​arches, a fountain, and azulejos tiling. The furniture and upholstery in my room felt old, but I managed to get a good night’s sleep. The room was spacious for European standards and had an (overpriced) minibar and a TV. At least the fan and ventilation system worked — Cadiz in July can be best described as oppressively hot. All of the employees that I interacted with were hospitable and friendly.
Hotel Spa Senator’s location, however, was perfect for my short visit and the primary reason why I booked this particular hotel. The hotel is about 5 – 7 minutes away from the Renfe station, which made my arrival and departure hassle-​free. Most of the sightseeing (the cathedral, the museum — which I would highly recommend!, and the various oratories) is about a 10 minute walk away. There are plenty of shops and restaurants in the area, so there was no need to partake in the hotel’s overpriced breakfast and because Marypaz was having a sale, I may have bought a pair of shoes (oops).
Hotel Spa Senator was just right for what I needed — a bed to sleep in and a convenient location for a quick visit.
