I loved staying here! The location was perfect, close to everything but a little off of the street so it was quiet and easy to sleep at night. Everything was clean and the hostel was small but charming.

I donno how to rate this hostel, we arrived there at 7 AM and the hostel was closed, we rang the bell and a lady told us we need to be back at 10, she even didnt open the door and we were out in shower rain, around 11 we checked in to a room with a bathroom ensuite as an apology (what I reserved was a twin bed room with shared bathroom), problem: they no speak english, the location is really good though!

This accommodation is located in the typical Andalusian house in the historical centre of Cordoba. It’s only 5 min walk to the Mezquita and other tourist attractions. We lived in a clean double-bed room on the first floor with a sink and a small TV (only Spanish channels). The staff was helpful but hardly spoke English. “+” Perfect location. Safety. Cleanness. “-” Difficult to find without a map. No kitchen.

Perfect location and friendly staff in a charming building. The room was basic (NB: our TV didn't have an areal cable and there was no bedside lamp) but spotless. Good value for money.

Quite hard to find! Try to get them to give you better directions than you get from Hostelworld or you'll be wandering like us for an hour.

stayed in cibeles for two nights at the end of semana santa. room smelled overwhelmingly lemon fresh (which could be worse!), and entire place, including shared bathroom, were spotless. staff was unpredictably away from the desk, but everything worked out because cordoba is so tiny, we could just walk back and forth to check back regarding check-out, luggage storage, etc. there are no amenities (shampoo, soap, soda machine) and wireless didn't work, but funky cordoba provided wifi at bar

Really good location, very close to the Mezquita and friendly staff. The only minus is that there is no kitchen, not even a kettle to boil some water. Apart from that, everything was great.

Very nice place, excellent location. Jatima was very polite. The WiFI falls down from time to time, but that´s the ONLY objection to this extremely nice hostel.

Everything was wonderful here. The family who runs the hostel is very nice. It was in a great location only a 5 min walk from restaurants and the Mezquita. The only bad part about the whole thing was how cold the rooms were (of course we were there in early February), but you'll get that in whatever hostel or house you stay in. Just bundle up in the blankets and you'll be fine!

Friendly staff, great location near the Mezquita. Beds were comfortable and area was safe, though the rooms had no heating, so it was quite cold in the winter time. Showers were warm though. For the price, it was great.

the staff was super helpful in pointing out things on the map. the location is great. we stayed in a private double on the ground level, though, and were warned that two people had been robbed who left their stuff near the open window, but we didn't have any problems & just made sure not to leave valuables in a visible place. comfortable and very economical experience.

This was a good place to stay, considering the price and that you get a private room. This place does not have a hostel atmosphere so dont stay here if that is what you are after. It also does not include breakfast and the people who run the hostel do not speak english. Also on the website it says parking, however they do not have private parking as we thought. However we did find free parking very close by and it was safe. Overall great value for money.
