No probs flying into it, just get the charts off the AENA website or Jepps and off you go. The AENA website also has the price schedule for landing fees, parking, etc., if you can find it. Last time I was there, maybe two years ago I paid about €12 for landing and parking.
The ARO might be a bit difficult to find, just ask for directions to "operations", it's through a service door and up a flight of stairs or two.
Nothing much in the area to see, IMO, apart from the amusement park (can't recall its name).
Everything else pretty much like every other AENA airport, well except that if he hasn't been given the sack yet, one of the controllers is a right cunt and seems to enjoy making life difficult to the lads from the local training outfit. You should be alright though, he can't give you a hard time as he doesn't speak much English

Just returned from Asturias via San Sebastian - both Aena airports.
Landing & 3 nights parking at Asturias was 15 Euro's, landing at San Sebastian 6 Euro's.
Treated courteously and swiftly on both occasions by Airport Admin and ATC.

As has been said, get the info off the AENA website. One more thing: if you come along the Med (from France), it's a good idea to program the Barcelona VFR route into your GPS as you might struggle to identify some of the waypoints. This runs from somewhere south of Girona overhead Sabadell (busy training airfield) to near Tarragona. From there you're a few miles from Reus.
