I LOVE THIS HOSTEL!!! When my friends and I arrived here we were tired and worn out but right as we entered the patio our moods immediately and we couldn't help but be happy and relaxed. We had a great time swinging in the hammocks, drinking at the bar, and hanging out in the "chill out area." Louis (one of the many friendly staff) made an AWESOME dinner!! I could not have been happier with my choice to stay at Makuto!

Great hostel, really friendly staff. Enjoyed my times there, could have easily stayed longer. Some staff did seem to slack a bit, they double booked my bed and weren't awake in the morning to help me check out. But other staff were more then helpful to fix the problems. Breakfast incl. and great night atmosphere with music instruments to play. This was a real bonus and made for one of the best nights I've had in spain! Thank you guys so much, if ever back in Granada I will come back to Makuto.

Very friendly staff, warm welcome, lots of interesting people to meet! best possible way to experience Granada's laid-back way of life. Lies in the heart of the Albaicin, close to beautiful viewpoint of the Alhambra and the cosy streets where the Teteria's and little shops are.

Beautiful location, the staff was wonderful, i felt right at home straight away. They have everything that I consider a "must" for great hostels but that people tend to undervalue: heating in the winter, separate bathroom with hot showers and big lockers. Unless you are a midget though I recommend avoiding the middle bunk or you will spend 10 minutes trying to get to bed like I did :)

really cool hostel. definitely one of the most interesting hostels ive found around the world. has a very cool courtyard with hammocks and a treehouse along with a good chill out room. staff are really friendly and its in a great part of granada. if you dont know yr way around definitely get a taxi from the train station or wherever cos you will definitely not be able to find the place.

Fantastic hostel. The treehouse is brilliant. I had to keep delaying leaving because I was having such a good time.

One of the nicest hostels I have stayed so far! The staff were great fun, everything was clean and the atmosphere was awesome! Can't recommend this place enough! The on,y problem is that you wont want to leave the place and see Granada! (do it, the Alhambra is gorgeous!)

Though staff provided a warm welcome (complimentary drinks, everyone was so friendly and helpful) and much creativity has gone into this place (tree house and cute outdoor bar), the building is too small for the number of beds they pack into it! Our tiny room had 2 tripple bunks, which you couldnt even sit up on and there was nowhere to put your stuff. There were makeshift rooms built into the hallway. I would rate this hostel quite highly but the lack of space was really frustrating.

One of my top 3 favourite hostels in the whole world! It's all about the vibe and these guys (and especially gals) hit the nail on the head. Don't ever change. I'll be back!

Wicked! Great location, great vibe and great staff. Sad to leave this place. It's not a hostel for the straight edge :-p Probably the best place I've stayed.

Me pareció un lugar increíble. El staff super buena onda. Yo viajé sola, y fué ideal, puesto que éramos como una gran familia. Me encantó que el desayuno finalice a las 11, super flexibles! Alcohol barato, hostel super limpio, el chilling room con instrumentos para hacer música, actividades que propone el staff. Excelente!

¡Great Hostel! Really cool vibe, great bar, awesome staff (except Matt doesn´t eat Peanut Butter?). Definitely recommend it to anybody. It´s in the Albaicin area which is by far the most interesting part of Granada, and everywhere I have been in a week, has been within walking distance.
