    The hand-dryer in men's bathroom at the 2 floor turns itself one everytime we put something near the washbasin (it scares and disturbs), it should be upper to avoid it.

    Nice hostel and big up to the volunteer Marine for her nice job especially alwaysvcooking trying to find interesting ideas ane dishes for the guests! The staff Sam on the reception is excellent in doing her job.

    Towel costs $3.50. No hooks in the bathroom to hang up your clothes or towel.

    I liked the curtains for privacy on the beds. The initiative to get the guests to socialise by offering free dinner and bar hopping tour at low cost.

    Why the showers for men are narrow and for the women are wide and have three shower cubicles? Some dudes from the staff may be blunt sometimes (I understand it must be hard to deal with flashpackers everyday though). The common space is too small and often packed. ISP Digi sucks, weak WiFi

    Brand new hostel. My suspicion is that the owner is a former backpacker, because he really understood the needs of us, the broke travellers 😉. Everything is set to make you feel comfortable, dorms are not overpopulated and 2.0, from the USB ports in the beddings to the big lockers below the beds. Free meals every evenings and functional kitchen. It's tidy, it's well thought-out.

    It would be great to find shampoo and shower gel in the bathrooms

    The new hostel in Granada is amazing. We were so pleased to have our own privacy thank you for the cartoon for each bed. It is super clean and the common area is cosy and a good place to meet people. I forgot a jacket there and it was impossible for me to go back to Granada. After organising a delivery on my own the guys were so lovely to pack the jacket and take care of the collection. They have been super available and friendly. Thank you again

    The staff was amazing and super helpful. The facilities exceeded my expectations of cleanliness. Additionally, the free dinner which was organized was above and beyond what I expect a hostel to offer. Overall I cannot recommend this hostel enough.

    I love the reception team, they were super friendly and were always available to answer any question or suggest places to visit. My room was fantastic, it even had a little balcony which was great for morning coffee ☕️ - the little privacy curtain on the beds were a nice touch. I enjoy the activities, especially the pub crawl + the free dinner at 8pm every night is very generous and delicious. It’s the place to stay in Granada

    The hostel is very new, the rooms and beds are very comfortable, the common space is chill and the kitchen is fully equipped. The best thing is that they organize family dinners every night, so it’s perfect for solo travelers to socialize. Special shoutout to Lola, the volunteer who was very kind and made us a delicious meal. I will definitely come back again. Thank you!

    Perfectly location , modern and fresh. The only negative thing was that 10 bed room nr 101 was too small, no place at all when 3 people were at the same time. Would be enough with 6 beds

    The 8 person mixed room I was in was felt quite small and squashed together. Also, the bathrooms need more hooks and surface space to put your belongings while you’re showering and the showers do not drain that quickly so it gets a bit wet in the bathroom but I didn’t have it too bad.

    The hostel staff were really friendly, gave you lots of advise and were always there to help. The hostel was really great for meeting people. The communal area was nice and social. They also provide a free evening meal every night for guests who would like it. The hostel was clean and had everything you needed.
