The location of this property is amazing! From the balcony you get a beautiful view of the Alhambra and Generalife and the palace walls and towers. It really is unique. You are in walking distance of so many beautiful parts of the city. Restaurants. Shops. Major attractions. And the property itself is wonderfully appointed and comfortable. The host, Gloria, was helpful and genuine. One of the best experiences I had in Spain.

Our host was always available by VRBO or What’s App. The location of the apartment is wonderful! The Albacain neighborhood is a very old and famous area that is hilly and not easy to get a cab/Uber in certain spots so get ready to walk which we loved and the cafes tabernas were plentiful. You are also very close to shopping and Alhambra. The apartment has everything you need and a little cold in the winter (we were therein January) but even then we enjoyed a glass of wine on the balcony to watch the sunset with gorgeous views of Alhambra and snow covered Sierra Nevada mountains!!

We enjoyed staying at Casa Gloria. There was a small hitch (the place was not ready at check in time) but the owners handled it well. We went out for a drink and came back to a clean house. The balcony is lovely and the apartment is comfortable. It is a 5 minute walk up a hill but that was no problem for us. The area is historic and very beautiful. A view of the Alhambra from the balcony was delightful. Gloria is easy to communicate with and is very responsive. We recommend this place.

Beautiful stay in Granada!

Had a wonderful stay at Gloria’s apartment in Granada. Perfect location in the Albaicín with spectacular view of the Alhambra from the upper living room and patio!The property was easy to find and we didn’t find the uphill walk all that difficult. Check-in was very easy and Gloria was very communicative the entire stay.

The view of Alhambra from the apartment was amazing! The apartment was comfortable and had everything we needed. Given the location among winding streets we needed Google maps to find our way home - it worked. Not a good location for someone with mobility issues due to the hills and you can't drive up to it. Gloria was an excellent host - she went over & beyond to ensure we were enjoying our stay. Will recommend to friends.

Must see city and place to stay

Such a beautiful city and this place allowed us to enjoy it to max. Views out every window and balcony were as good as any public area, but without the crowds. Gloria was very accommodating and the home was so very well decorated. Highly recommend unless unable to climb hills and stairs.

The apartment is very nice and clean and spacious. There is a wonderful view of the Alhambra, and it is located close to many attractions, restaurants and bars. Gloria, the owner/manager was wonderful. The only drawback was the plumbing: we could not put toilet paper down the toilet. Also, the streets are so narrow, a car, including a taxi cannot fit in the streets. However, you can catch a taxi nearby. Overall, a great experience.

Wonderful, spacious place that is nicely decorated. Amazing views of Alhambra! It would have been a five star but we didn’t know that only two rooms had air condition, so we slept in the foldout bed. It worked out fine and slept well. Just something to consider if you planning on staying during hot summer months.

Great unit in a fantastic location

The unit itself was very cool, overlooking the Alhambra. It was fairly large with an interesting layout and some nice spaces to just sit and take in the vibe of the place. The hosts were very helpful and although the check in process is (by necessity) a bit complex, the instructions were very well laid out and accurate. I would definitely stay here again if/when we come back to Granada.

Alhambra family trip

place was quaint. Gloria was super attentive and sent us various useful tidbits of info. The location had great views of Alhambra but it is definitely not for people who have difficulty walking as it is uphill. Only issue is that the AC is in the attic room and the family room. The two bedrooms have fans which were not a problem for us.

Lovely view

The view was as pictured from the upper room. The property was well appointed and clean. A few notes is the door can be tricky as you need the keys to also turn on the electicity and turn of when leaving, suggestion a battery motion light at the door to be able to see. Beds were comfortable and shower had great pressure. One suggestion is to upgrade the towels, but we had a great stay and the streets are fun to drive on!

Spacious and immersed in the culture

We had a lovely stay. There was plenty of room to spread out for our blended family with two teens. The immersion in historic Granada was perfect - with the incredible views, and winding Albacin neighborhood at the doorstep. We could walk almost everywhere we wanted to go. (There are hills which we knew.) The apartment had everything we needed, and it was perfectly clean.
