Reviews Summary
Visitors find the Roman Baths Santa Maria to be a worthwhile, albeit brief, stop, particularly for the excellent views from the viewing platform. The historical context provided by the information sign and the audio guide from the church are highly appreciated, especially by English speakers. Some visitors noted the gate to the baths was closed and expressed concern about litter at the site.
"Viewing platform at the plaza with the Alcazaba and Real Colegiata Santa Maria has an information sign. Not a lot to look at but the sign really helps create an image in your mind if what it looked like. Worth a short viewing if you are already there at the plaza. There was a gate into the baths but it was closed off when we were there in early May"

"Similar to Roman baths in St Albans, great views from higher points"
Stephen Kendall
"Interesting remains of some roman baths and an good view from the platform at the top (from the terrace in front of the church right above it) plenty of information available about the baths if you also get the audio guide at the church. Very useful if you're an English speaker and not very good at Spanish"
