“Excellent hostel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 28, 2012

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.

“Nice, but too loud.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 24, 2012 via mobile

We had a slight problem getting there, since one of the main streets was under construction. We took an apartment within the hotel. It was a nice place to stay, nice furnished and large. There was a public garage not so far away where the hotel guests have a special price.
The room was just next to the main entrance and the main door was rather loud during the night and people were talking at 2-3 a.m. like it was 10 a.m.
In the kitchen/ dining room there was a nice atmosphaire. Selfservice, but it was not that clear what should one take. We did not see any stuff there to ask. I made a coffee in the filter coffee machine and we just took a toast with marmelade and some juice. Not a big problem, but I would prefer if I got some explanation. I am not sure I would return there. Maybe only cause the price was ok. But I was awake a half of the night we spent there.

“The perfect place for staying in Granada on a budget”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 20, 2012

The rooms are extremely clean, the common area is well maintained. Quiet street just a few minutes away from the city center. The owners are welcoming and provide you with the best advice. The kitchen has a fridge and offers the possibility to cook. Free internet in the common rooms.

“You have to stay here if you are visiting Granada.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed September 9, 2012

I stayed here for 4 nights with my friend - it was great. We had a 3 bed dorm and where greeted with friendly staff in a very clean hostel with a great vibe. The price was extremely cheap and I cannot speak more highly of this hostel, it is located right in the centre of Granada, easy to walk to all the local areas including the Alhambra. Hostel includes free wii fi, lockers, plenty of bathrooms. There are a number of activities run out of the hostel which include walking tours, bike tours, horse riding. I strongly recommend going along with one of the hostel staff on this trip - I had a blast.

“Fantastic”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 5, 2012

Rented an apartment for 4 in July 12, lovely old traditional building with an inner courtyard. Apartment was good mix of modern with old beamed ceilings. Air conditioning a hugh bonus. Lovely roof terrace where we had a BBQ - common room downstairs with internet access if needed. Staff excellent, Freddie was a font of knowledge, all very friendly and helpfull. Breakfast very basic, but after the first morrning we just took extras. Would most definatly recommend.

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.
