This hostal was ok. Reception was helpful. The room was clean for the most part.The tub in my room was a little dodgy looking.The location was pretty good. I did stay there on a Saturday night and it was very noisy outside.

This place is fine and in a good location, if you are looking for a budget hotel. it is not a hostel ie no communal area or place to cook your own food.....

A lovely hostel if you prefer something a bit quieter... more like a hotel than a hostel. The reception staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and the room we stayed in was immaculately clean! Also, right in the centre of Granada, so perfect for shopping trips and sightseeing!

This is a wonderful hotel! For the price I paid it was unexpectedly good! The staff is very helpful, positive, English speaking. The room was nice, large and clean. If I go to Granada nex time, I'll stay again here.

This is the best hostal I stayed in on my trip though spain. It was clean, the rooms were big, the showers were nice, not too much noise, and the staff were incredibly helpful. No elevator or phone in the rooms, but the internet worked well, I would definitely stay again

muy conveniente por el precio, bastante ruidoso ya que mi habitación se encontraba en planta baja al lado de Recepción, pero lo recomendaría a pesar de eso.

I didnt know about the safety deposit boxes, and i didnt take the money with me bc i didnt want to be pickpocketed. when i got back, only 40 euros remained, and my necklace that was in the same pocket had been ripped apart and all of the beads fell off. the only person to go in the room while i was gone was the housekeeper (whom I feel should be hired based on character and merit) so that was pretty disheartening to me.close

This place was a great surprise. We had large unit with two rooms and bathroom. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were close to the cathedral and 15 minute walk to the Alahambra. We would definitely stay here again.

Free internet worked out great. Location was amazing. Rooms were warm (Granada got cold at nights), the heating was excellent. 24 hour reception proved useful and helpful. Although shower was a little tempramental, overall it was great value for money and a pleasure to stay at.

The accomodation was dissapointing in terms of space and cleanliness. The bathroom was very cramped. I had the room right next to the street and next to the main entrance. Patrons were ringing the door bell until 5:30am waiting to enter the hotstal.

The location was great, but the room I had fronted the street and was right next to reception so I got almost no sleep from the noise. Would probably be ok if you ask for a room at the back.

I stayed in the front room to the left, room 102. It was a cute little room, with a great shower. The hostel is very centrally located & has an exceptional staff, very nice & hospitable! I felt at home the entire time. Will definitely stay there if I ever go to Granada again.

It was great for the price (chaeap) of a single, which are not always easy to find only trouble was there was a noisy tapas bar next door. It didn't run to late and the best solution was to join them
