A fabulous apartment in an enviable location. Everything was catered for, property was clean and having 2 outside spaces was a real bonus. Decent level of fitness required as the property is at the top of the Albacin but views are spectacular. Our host Adrian was helpful and would recommend to others.

Great place but on top of the hill. Make sure to ask the host for info on taxi or bus drop off before you walk up to it from the main town-it’s all uphill and you don’t want to haul luggage. Host is very responsive. Kitchen fully equipped. Has Italian style stove top percolator for coffee.

Great location to Alhambra. Bus down or up to city is close by. We parked close by down the city. Took 7 minutes down about 12 up. You can not park near apt. Too tight and no parking spots available anyway.

Fabulous stay in Albayzin

Fabulous house and location! Highly recommend this as a great location with sunny terrace and lovely patio for breakfast/ lunch. Elisa was a great host and we recommend her choice of the local flamenco performance which was superb! So many beautiful places to explore locally.

You can't have a better location in Granada, in the old Albaicin neighbourhood views of the Alhambra from the private roof terrace and a minute's walk to the viewpoint at Mirador de San Nicolas, and plenty of streets to wander around. Adrian and Elisa were great hosts with helpful instructions on where to park our car at a car park close by (do NOT try to drive to the house!). The house had everything we needed for our stay and was very comfortable and cool in the heat of the day. There's also air conditioning if you need it. There is a small courtyard, a bathroom downstairs, and two bedrooms upstairs, one with an ensuite toilet. And the rooftop terrace is a lovely place to eat dinner and watch the sunset. The neighbourhood was very quiet and peaceful at night, despite being so close to the Mirador San Nicolas. There are cafes and ice cream shops in walking distance. The No. C31/C32 bus stop is around the corner which will get you everywhere you will want to visit in Granada if you don't fancy the climbs. NB the old parts of Granada, including where the apartment is located, are VERY hilly with many steps. But it does mean you can skip cardio and leg day at the gym.

Lovely Apartment

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Immaculate and very comfortable, with a beautiful patio and rooftop deck that has a fantastic view of the Alhambra. Elisa was wonderful to meet and very kindly offered advice on nearby restaurants, the grocery, and bus stop location. We would recommend this property and we would stay here again, if in Granada. The Albayzin area is fantastic.

Wow! Wow! Wow!

This property exceeded our expectations. It was beautifully decorated, clean, comfortable, and right in the heart of Albaicin. We had marvelous views of Alhambra from the roof and were able to walk there easily in the morning. Would recommend 1000%.

GRANADA!

What a lovely city and beautiful place to see the Alhambra and walk the small winding lanes of Albayzin. Check-in was very smooth with Esther's help. She also answered our questions about places nearby to eat and taxi service - though it was also extremely easy to use the very efficient bus service. The space was very clean and quiet, excellent small kitchen well equipped. We wish we had more time in Granada. Enjoy.

Step into Charm & History in Granada

This place is just wonderful and perfectly located in Old Granada. The roof top deck is spectacular and we really enjoyed sipping wine and watching the sun set over the Alhambra. You had easy access to grocery stores, pastry shops and a little square of three different restaurants with outside seating and great food. You will be transported back to hundreds of years walking up and down the city on cobblestones. Our 23 and 25 year old kids thought this place was "awesome." The Bergers

Great house in the middle of everything!

We truly enjoyed our stay in the Albaicin neighborhood of Grenada. Our host, Elisa, was very welcoming and provided us great information from restaurants, to buses, to how best visit the Alhambra. The neighborhood is absolutely delightful. There are hidden shops, restaurants, and cafes all around. We went from restaurant to restaurant enjoying tapas and wine. The home is really cute. It has modern amenities inside an old home. We love the roof-top deck the most. We watched the full moon rise above the Alhambra all among the most picturesque town. We would highly recommend staying here.

Magical stay in the Albaicin

The roof-top terrace (with Alhambra view) and internal courtyard were wonderful, as was the air conditioning during the hottest time of the day. Was lucky enough to find street parking the day we moved in and did not move the car until we checked out two days later (the labyrinthine streets that can suddenly narrow to shoulder width or become a flight of stairs is an intimidating area to drive in. A short level walk will bring you to the MIrador de San Nicolas plaza with the best view of the Alhambra. Washing machine was handy as were the clotheslines on the terrace for drying laundry. We felt right at home...
