Personal comments
MAC PAPA'S IS A CHEAP JACKET POTATOE RESTAURANT THAT STAYS OPEN QUITE LATE AND IS GOOD WHEN YOU GET THE LATE NIGHT NIBBLES. THE BEST PLACES TO GO OUT ARE GABBANA A DISCO NEAR THE PORT THAT STAYS OPEN TILL 6/7 ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAYS. EL TELON IS IN PLAZA DE LA MERCED, A LIVLEY BAR WITH GOOD CHEES MUSIC.

In my opinion:
Most people loved it.
Important factors in my choice
(1) Unimportant – (4) Very important
Personal recommendation
THE PLACE IS NICE BUT LIKE EVERYWHERE THERE ARE BAD SIDES TO IT TOO. JUST BE CAREFUL AND HAVE YOUR WITS ABOUT YOU. THE UNIVERSITY IS NICE CLEAN YOU CAN USE THE INTERNET FOR FREE BUT ONLY AT CERTAIN TIMES, THE LIBARY IS GOOD BUT GET THE BOOKS QUICK.
