Positive aspects of school
We had the perfect teacher in Guadolope. Her methods were varied and the lessons flew by. The excursion to La Boca was very interesting, but difficult for beginners. Dedicated management of the school.
Negative aspects
Many classrooms without windows, we were the lucky ones with windows
Quality of teaching / language progress
For beginners 2 weeks makes sense

We spoke a lot during the lessons. They immediately start speaking in Spanish, which helps a lot!!
City/place
It's a very nice city with a lot of things to do. The locals are very friendly.
Quality of teaching / language progress
The intensive group course is very nice! 4 hours for me in a day is enough, you have also lots of time to explore the city and meet people. In a group is a nice idea because I learned a lot from other people. (About the question the afternoon activities and excursions offered by school, I did not do anything there, so I don't know it, but I heard from other people that they liked it).

The lessons were very good! Small classes and very easy to understand language. The students were directly involved and everything was clearly explained. There was homework which was discussed directly.
Other comments
The accommodation was not good! Indeed lovely and well located, but no working heating (very cold!). The other roommates had nothing to do with the school, i.e. you had little contact with other classmates, which was actually the purpose of the shared apartment! Scruffy apartment, moldy fridge. Not worth it. At least for the price!

Enthusiasm of the teachrs.
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
I attended A1 level class. However, it was absolutely essential to review and prepare for the lessons, as the pace of the lessons was quite fast. Even if I was prepared well, sometimes I couldn't follow them. When you have some questions, you should ask a teacher without any hesitation. If the teacher recognizes you have some difficulties, he (and even your classmates as well) helps you to understand them. I was very happy with my class. You should have the solid motivation to learn, otherwise you will have a hard time there. Of course, if you devote to study at the school, you'll be rewarded. The school offers the free coffee/tea service. As the students have a break at the same time, a student room is always packed.

I think the service was good in general. However, as the school couldn't offer the private lessons with my requested day of a week and time, my afternoon schedule was restricted.
