Go out for the school-organised social activities especially the tapas tour on Friday evenings + the party afterwards! These activites are organised daily in the evenings after both morning & afternoon classes, they change activities from time to time.

I've learnt many languages and been to many language schools - I left this school happier with my progress than I have for any other school I've been to. Well worth it.

Trips, especially to the neighboring cities of Granada, Seville, Cordoba, etc. are very expensive. It is not worth to use school trips, it is better to organise something on your own.

I was VERY dissapointed with the host family. Five students in one house seriously diminished the "family" environment. Just one small bathroom shared between the 5 students! Food quality & quantity was poor. I moved out to a shared a villa with other students which was MUCH better & I would recommend it.

There should be an information in the brochures of Cervantes, that there are only allowed students of an age higher than 25 for living in the residence because of giving respect to every other flat mates. Otherwise it´s the best accomodation of all others to live there.
