More an hotel than a hostel, with all the advantages (room cleaning every morning, privacy) and inconveniences (not many spaces to meet people) that come with this. Furniture and appearance quite old (and old-style: Grandpa-home-style ;) ), however EXTREMELY clean!

There was a very loud party going on on the room above us (till 5 o'clock). I didn't sleep at all.

A great place to stay, especially if you're on a budget but would rather not stay in a dorm room. The manager was also very helpful!

I stayed here one night only it was a good price but the walls were VERY thin I could hear the person snoring two rooms away. I stayed in the single room which said it had an ensuite but it was actually your own bathroom down the hall. The hostel was good for the price but I imagine given the poor sound proofing your enjoymernt would depend on the other guests staying in the hostel. It was clean but had a strange smell to it I would recommend it for short stays.

This place has all the basics covered. Decent location (parallel to Grand Via colon, and close to the bus stop). The rooms are clean, and host was very helpful. One drawback is that there's no kitchen.

Great location, close to bus 30,31,32,34 to Alhambra, Albaycin and Sacromonte. The owner was very nice and gave us a lot tips of going around the city and recommanded us a nice pizza restaurant. Romms were clean and quiet.

A very pleasant place. Clean, nice room, very friendly and helpful staff. Quiet and well-insulated building - I mean it was not too hot, even though there was no AC, and it wasn't noisy. I slept very well there. A tip: to my surprise Granada train station does not have a luggage storage service or lockers - better store your luggage in the hostel, than walk with it to the station and back, as I did ;-)

I got the single room for two days. For 18 euros per day, i had my own bathroom and shower, my own tv, and the wifi was also available, these were the biggest advantages for me, and it really worth the price. The inconvenient is that during the day, it was smelling sewer when the window was open, so i had to stay with the door and window closed when i was in the room . Book it definitely i you want a stay less than 1 week, but i you want a stay more look or something else....

PROS: Big room and bathroom, silent, fresh. CONS: Good enough for couples but not such a good idea for meeting people and having fun in the hostel.

The owner of the hostel was really nice and helpful. He gave us good tips on sight seeing. The cleaning lady was also really nice. After all, it is not a hostel but a pension, there is no breakfast, we didn´t get to know the other guests, but it was fine. We had a great room with ensuit bathroom and spent some nice days in Granada.

I liked the place and the staff was very helpful. We walked from the train station and to most places in town. The downside is that you could smell smoke everywhere and I left after two days with a bad sinus infection.

We were travelling with our ten month old son and when we arrived the guy managed to find a travel cot for us to use. We were very happy for this. The room was quite small and the hostel in general seemed strangely quiet. This was good for us and our baby but it's a 5-10 minute walk to the centre of town if that's where you want to be. To be fair, you're not going to Granada to stay in a hostel all the time, it's such a great town you won't care what the rooms like.
