I've read a lot about using the Granada card, but I still have questions. My wife and I are in Granada for only 1 1/2 days in May and we're staying at an AirBNB about 1.2 miles from Alhambra. One full day is set aside for Alhambra (during the morning) and the palaces (at night). We plan on purchasing the Granada card (or the Plus?) for our short stay vs. individual tickets, because of the bus rides and we may see other sites on our 1/2 day.
1. Can we get times for Alhambra during the morning and the palaces at night using the Granada card?
2. If we don't have a printer at home, will we have to go to Alhambra to pick up the card, or is a smartphone option available? Can we go the day before to pick up the card?
3. Is there a best entrance to Alhambra to use, or does everyone queue into Alhambra and the palaces using the same entrance?
Advice is much appreciated from this board. Thank you.

Per this information, the Granada Card does not include evening visits. It doesn't sound like a skip the line deal. They don't hide the fact that the Granada Card does not guarantee admission to the Alhambra.

I would never go to Granada without a reservation for the Alhambra ahead of time; it is not at all unheard of for there not to be tickets. May is beginning high season. Don't risk it.
