Not quite enough hot water, letter asking us to conserve water but the shower and the taps still ran after use. very noisy laneway outside our window on friday night. we asked for a double, were given a triple with ensuit but noticed it had a metal security door and small window indicating perhaps previous break- ins from the laneway outside window? Staff very nice though.close

There are so many bathrooms on the floor it was like having our own! (except not paying the extra money!) We booked the Flamenco show they advertise in the hostel... DON'T GO!! It was a real disappointment and not worth the money. Our room was small and on a noisy street, but very clean. Staff was friendly.close

nice little place close to the old town of granada. the room was tiny and the bathroom was always kind of "damp" and smelled mouldy. it's okay if you want to stay a night or two but i wouldn't recommend it for longer trips to granada and its surrounding area.

Cheap and basic hostal, I spent my stay in a double with bathroom (but there wasn't any window in our room...) near the centre and in a quiet area with kebab tapas bars and a supermarket close to the spot.

The staff was not very friendly (coñazos), some stuff was stolen from our room (camera, sunglasses, ...). There was no real airco in the room only a fan, and it was not so close to the historical centre. There was no real place to meet people!

The promised wifi didn't work for the first couple of days and then was very weak from our actual room. First 2 nights we were in a really small room with no external windows - horrid.

We have had a good stay at the hostel but leaving the front door open at night is dangerous since the amount of thieves in spain.

This place is OK, except that the kitchen and bathroom for the single rooms could be cleaner. A bit out of town but Granada is small enough for it to be OK, streets around the hostel are a bit shady..

This place has very minimal facilities. Directions said to take a taxi, you can just as easily get a bus. Location fine, staff some good some bad.. and no fan in my tiny room. No communal area at all.. so not ovrall a nice place.

Resembling a budget hotel, this hostel was in a safe location with a very helpful and friendly staff. The beds were modest, but it was a good, inexpensive place to stay in Granada.

This hotel was great. I will go back if I am ever in granada. The staff were friendly and we were close enough to the action to walk there but far enough to have a good night sleep. Cafe below is a little noisy... super cheep though (26 euro for a double bed/sink in june)

Granada is hot and I shared a twin room with one fan. It was so hot during the day and at night. The dishes weren't very clean. The room was fine. Overall, an average hostal.

Just like a basic hotel, cleaners come each morning to make the bed. The best bathroom I´ve ever seen in a hostel. Very clean, good location. For the price its amazing!

Place is just what 20-somethings need: a bed, a shower and a place to put your stuff. There aren't any dining accommodations but there are restaurants in the area.

excellent helpful staff. a bit unorganized. cleaned linnens and free towels daily. all 4 days were fine and fun. Felt a bit unsecure, but was fine. Great location (but hard to find!) Expect to smell fish if on the 2nd floor above the fresh fish market. Would definitely stay again if we had...
