Hi there, I went to Granada recently and stayed in a village called Monachill. It is located half way between Granada and Pradollano and it turned out to be a convenient location to Sierra Nevada resort.... and quite inexpensive as well (about 45 euros/night in the Huerta del Laurel hotel). There is an alternative mountain road that you can take from Monachill that connects at a certain point to the main Granada-Pradollano highway. In Pradollano there is an underground parking lot (max 16 euros/day) which is very handy. Ski rentals are widely available and I managed to get a 2x1 promotion in one of the shops. I recommend you go to the resort on weekdays only, cause it is said to be extremely busy on weekends (packed with posh Andaluzian folks). Take care!
