Encountered a VOR failure at one of the above listed Spanish airports. Controller just kept clearing us for the VOR approach as he didn't understand us telling him the VOR was u/s. Eventually he seemed to grasp the idea and cleared us for the VOR procedure on the reciprocal runway ...... which uses the same VOR
To balance the issue a bit though, some of the airports in Spain seem ok to me. I've always found Malaga to be reasonable.
