Welcome to the backpackers guesthouse which is set in a XVI century building which had been constantly refurbishing and decorating to keep the historical charm of its architecture, because we want to mix the stories of the old Mudéjar art with the energy and hospitality of today. Always in the middle of the process of creation, our place is situated right in the center of Granada, in the neighborhood of bars, restaurants, souvenir shops and tea houses. We are trapped in the old times, running the place like the old-school auberge used to be run. In the same time we are always in movement : painting, constructing, dancing, cooking, changing, thinking, drinking, creating... Treat yourself with this active way of travelling which will be the best gift from your trip. Pop in to our house, even without previous notice and do something with us. As soon as you become a member of our family, you will have FOR FREE: guide tours, mountain bike day, flamenco classes, scooter day, beach trip, picnic, football games, water park etc. Ask for discounts if you plan to stay longer. Ask for special offers for various activities (paragliding, skiing, mountain climbing etc). Our prices are flexible like flamenco dancer´s body. We are waiting for you..at night, in a day, not far away... Just as you will be guarded by the angels of the Alhambra, you will be inspired by the creative energy of the extended family in Maktub Guesthouse.

True backpackers hostel, very chill, but pretty crazy crew at night. Big character, but facilities suck. Only 2 bathrooms, no hot water after a couple of people shower.

Staff was very friendly and helpful, although they did lose the key to my room and thus gave me another one. One of the bathrooms had a broken shower and both bathrooms needed heavy cleaning.

hard to find and there was no locker in my room. Also no real big space to just chill only a few people can fit in kitchen area at once. OK if staying just a few nights.
