    The rooms are definitely not soundproof. The first two nights I was there, there was a group of very noisy people who came home late at night and made lots of noise. If ou prefer sleepimg above partying, then I would not recommend this hostel over the weekend. The third night was absolutely fine... more

    Really good hostel! Very nice owners, trustworthy and helpful. A bit far from the center (5 min walk) but for the low price it's totally worth it. All is well functioning and clean! Totally recommend it

    This place is quiet, a little far from the night life area, but everything in this town can be walked to...so it's not that bad. Also we were looking to take a break after the new year so it was fine with us. Staff was very friendly and nice and it was clean.

    If you want a nice relaxing stay in Granada, this is the place to stay. It´s not actually a hostel, more like a small hotel or pension. You´ll definitely get a lot of privacy and quiet rest but won´t get to meet anybody. The man who works here is very nice.

    I had a single room which was small, clean and comfortable. Hot water unreliable. Staff very helpful with directions/map. Location good for airport bus (Triunfo stop), 10 minute walk to centre but near bus stop.

    It's not a hostel that knocked us out with beautiful interior design or modern equipment, but it provided us with a clean, spacious room in an execellent location.

    as the other comments have noted - a nice, low-budget hotel. owners are very helpful and kind. Rooms are clean (and are cleaned daily) and so is the bathroom. Perfect for a quiet stay if you are not looking to party nor meet people.

    The staff is excellent, thank you very much for the information you gave us because otherwise we would miss a lot of things to see. The location is perfect, 10 minutes walk from the train station as well as the city centre. Quality and Quantity are very good- everything is clean. Perfect hostel...

    A liiiittle bit far from the main attractions but it's Ok. And it'd be better if they have a liquid soap of something in a bathroom. Anyways, thanx a lot. For that price the hostel is awesome!

    As others have said previously, its a hotel but at hostel prices. Very secure, 3 keys to get into your room. Not for meeting people or partying, more for a rest whilst exploring Granada. Staff leave you alone to your own devices and were helpful with maps and info on what to see.

    I really enjoyed the stay in the hostel. It was more like a small hotel, there were towels and they cleaned the room every day. It was not "fun" but if you want to stay in a calm place an sleep well it is great. The owner is really nice and gave very helpfull information.

    Do you have any idea of a private bathroom?? Should it be in your room or you have to go out at the end of the corridor?? It seems that they are telling me a lie! How come the bathroom is not the same room??

    This is more of a one star hotel than hostel. All we needed was a place to sleep at night so this was fine. The only negative comment is that there was not hot water. We showered at midnight with cold water, not a very pleasant experience, but its alright. Great place overall.
