Stayed here for 2 nights in the dorm room. Loved the hostel from the second we walked in. Big, spacious dorm room with large lockers. Curtains pull across between bunk beds to give you more privacy. Huge shower. Courtyard area was really pretty and nice to chill out in. The hostel quietens down after 1030pm (which was perfect for us... More

We do try to get all our information on leaving Granada correct which can be... More

We stayed in El Momento for 3 nights (2 in the shared dorm and the last one in a private room). It is probably the best place to stay in Granada: very nice and helpful staff, beautiful courtyard with hammocks, large dorms with comfortable beds. Located in the heart of Granada, we really enjoyed our stay there!

I've been travelling all over Central- and Southamerica for more than 20 years - and from thousands of places I stood it's the best place ever. Great central location, nice, clean, smart and relaxing with great staff - especially lovely Ruth. I came for 2-3 days and remained a week in a smooth atmosphere with nice people. The private rooms... More

This is the best hostel we have stayed at in Central America, though it's more like a hotel at hostel prices. The staff were friendly and very informative, even calling round to check if there was any baseball on. We had a double room and it was more like a hotel room, lovely decor, super comfy bed and nice bathroom.... More

We do apretiate when a guest like yourselves took the time to write and is informative on what to expect. Our location is big plus as we are so close but also on a quiet street with not much traffic and the dorm does receive many nice compliments but we will continue to upgrade and make it nicer every year....

Such an adorable property run by some of the nicest (bilingual) guys! Hello Hammocks! The beds had actual mattresses and everything! The guys helped with directions and information. It was nice to have the small bar and restaurant on premises. I recommend their special momento breakfast and coffee. Amazing! The location was wonderful and safe. Granada was such a great... More

Nothing but praise for this hostel, from the booking until we left. We felt so comfortable there that we decided to stay on an extra week when Chris and Maria helped us find a Spanish conversation tutor.

Thank you for response and taking your time to write about us here, we get many great comments about our courtyard and that we are clean but it is important for us that we continue this way. As we are also a small hostel we can try and give our guests more attention than some of the larger hostels which... More

Right from the moment we walked in, the staff were very friendly and helpful-especially for someone who speaks minimal Spanish (me). Information was clear on what was included in our room and travel/excursion options were made available right from the beginning. Use of a kitchen is a big bonus but if you don't want to cook, they run a little... More
