Stayed 1 night. It's in a walkable location to shops and touristy areas, right on main street. Alhambra about 20-25 mins walk. Room was quiet but smelled like sewage, but was clean. Parking garage right opposite. Helpful stuff.
Such a great location right in the middle of the city. A little hard to get in to otherwise right smack in the middle of the city was what we were looking for. Front desk was great service and very friendly.

Good price for central area. Comfortable bed and air con in room. Good rooftop cafe for breakfast. Staff very helpful.
Excellent clean place to stay close to everything and walking distance to all. Staff were great. Room comfortable and nice to have a fridge. A nice little sandwich place up on the 6th floor. Would definitely recommend.
The hotel is in a great location. The rooms are quite small, but have everything you need. The mini fridge was a nice bonus. The room was clean. The pillows weren't very comfortable, but that's my opinion. My only complaint is you cannot control the temperature in the room. It was extremely hot in the room. You can open the window, but there is no breeze because its between buildings so it only helped a little bit. Overall, I liked the hotel and would recommend it.

The staff were very kind and I was able to ask for advice when I had any problems, and they gave me good answers and support, which I am grateful for.
This property is centrally located. Everything is just around the corner (other than the Alhambra). You must reserve the parking ahead of your check in otherwise you are risking not to have parking space available.
Great location, basic hotel, clean and comfortable
Our second stay here as great location for city centre bars and restaurants and sightseeing. Lovely rooftop bar and cafeteria for breakfast and snacks with friendly staff and good service. Comfortable, clean rooms with good shower (no bath)! Underground Car park just across road booked in advance. Took half an hour to find hotel following Sat Nav from motorway but only 2 mins to get back on Motorway when leaving!!

Location of the hotel was very convenient. Walking distance to stores, restaurants and the center of Granada. The reception staffs were very welcoming and gave us great suggestions of what to see in the city and a flamenco show.
The only observation was that the walls were a bit thin because we could hear loud muffle talks and the tv on from the rooms next door. At least the noises didn’t go on very late at night when we tried to sleep.
It is well located with good transport links to the Alhambra and a walkable distance to the Albaicin neighbourhood as well as many Moroccan style street markets. Room was fairly good size and clean but the bathrooms need a little update. For the price, however, this was an amazing find.
