Hostal La Campana

After looking at places with "quite extravagant" rates in Gibraltar, I decided on this place with a "pretty reasonable" rate and located just across the Spain - Gibraltar border (so close to be able to clearly see the Rock from the square "right beside" this place), and getting for that reasonable rate was my own "private room" fairly spacious in size and with amenities of an ensuite bath & a flat-screen TV (yes really kind of a "rare deal" I would say to get what I got at this place anywhere in Europe and especially in such a close proximity to such a "famous site"!). And not just for a great view of the Rock, the "sizeable square" (as just mentioned) is also quite convenient with places for food & miscellaneous all around it, and my "usual restaurant" during my 3-day stay was this nice Chinese restaurant just across the street on the "south side" of the square (the side with the Rock view). And so, if coming to stay here for the "Gibraltar visit" (like I was), it's just about a 10-minute walk south to the border (with also a "market row" to go through to get to the border and where it was just a short "border procedure" for about 10 minutes) followed by about a 15-minute walk to Gibraltar's "city center" and from which to the "bottom station" of the cable car is about another half-hour walk (with also a good "English breakfast", like the one I had, available at some of the restaurants along the way). And apart from Gibraltar, also right in La Linea itself and at just about a 15-minute walk east from this place (just straight along the "main street" behind this place by turning left on it) is the city's oceanfront with a "long & wide" beach & the "small ruin" of Fort Santa Barbara (where I went in & around that fort ruin, took a beach walk for some stretch and also had a "brief swim", and yes doing all those while being "towered over" by the Rock of Gibraltar just not too far to the south).
