Very nice and cool staff, especially the owner. The day I arrived he went over the city map with me and recommended how to best hit all the main sights, and drew out a walking tour through the Albaicin which turned out to be excellent. It's in a good location, not too far from the central attractions but still hidden away in a narrow back street so not too much noise.
The whole place is very neat and clean. The rooms, bathrooms, common area, all immaculate and for a hostel I was extremely impressed as it was clean like a hotel room. The hostel is well maintained overall, like you're in someone's house.
It's a quiet hostel and noise is discouraged, but there's no curfew and the staff know all the good places to go out at night. Besides if you're young, Granada is a student town, enough said. The rooftop terrace was good too.
I really can't recommend this place enough. It's not too big and has a pleasant vibe. For the cost it can't be beat.
Cons: A lot of stairs (this is a vertical building), weak wifi signal.

Five minutes from the Cathedral El Granado is located right in the centre of Granada, with walking distance to all that Granada has to offer, historical monuments, shops, nightlife, as well as to all the university departments located in the centre of the city. The history of Granada is within the walls of the newly renovated building. Ground floor and half of the second floor is from Nasrid period (13th -15th century). 16th and 17th century colonial style building as the building grows taller to end with all the commodities that the 21st century has to offer; heating, warm water showers, TV and Internet connection. Staying in this charming house, in the hart of Granada, definitely makes for a different and unique experience. It’s the perfect choice for a family, a group of friends, couples or “backpackers” who are looking for new friends and experiences. It is also more affordable than a hotel.
