Would I stay here - absolutely yes, can’t wait!

Beautifully placed by the river, short walk to car park, suggest dropping bags at the Meson Guillermo, where you check in. Very clean, ample toiletries in room & a fridge for your supplies. Noise level, well, babbling brook, and very little other noise. They are extending, but work didn’t start til after 8. Great WiFi.
It was tranquil, so atmosphere is that.
There are stairs and no lift, so not suitable for those that can’t do stairs, but that might change with extension. And there is a ground floor room.
The great value of this place is that the patron is at the aforementioned bar, which has super staff, with fab food. Attentive and friendly. A tapa with every drink - the mushrooms are delicious, the sausages, oh the thought, made your mouth water and the cheese was nutty and flavourful. The speed of service was excellent, the ambience of the place is relaxed and fun, families and all age groups. In fact I need to put this review on directly for them. Get there early to get your spot.
Other upsides, there’s a bus to the centre of Granada, the 390… it’s cheaper than parking in Granada. You could get the bus in and then the small bus up to the Alhambra (my plan for my next visit). Perfectly placed for a drive up to the Sierra Nevada for the fabulous views, walks and spotting supercars and prototypes being tested.

Excellent comfort

Charming place, super modern, super clean, very quiet, close to Granada and the Sierra Nevada. Unbeatable and we have visited many hotels. Free parking super close. We were 3 people and the single room option was very good.

Ubicación muy buena

Estoy de acuerdo con las demás opiniones en que para ser una casa rural, la decoración es coqueta y resalta a la vista la inversión que se ha hecho para mejorar la casa.
En cuanto a otros aspectos me gustaría mencionar varias cosas: Mi pareja y yo hemos estado alojados dos noches en la habitación que tenía el balcón con vistas al río. En cuanto a las amenities mencionadas por otros clientes, a nosotros solo nos dejaron gel de baño.
La habitación tenía un olor similar al de la humedad, que aun ventilando, no se fue en toda nuestra estancia. Aparte de eso, era pequeñita, lo cual hace que si por la noche te tienes que levantar te toque estar esquivando la maleta, silla, cama...
Quiero dejar claro que esto solo son aspectos a mencionar, porque para nosotros la educación y el buen trato en los sitios en los que nos alojamos es lo más relevante.
Con esto, quiero decir que el trato que se nos dio (por parte de la anfitriona) no fue el adecuado. La noche antes de irnos se nos cayó una botella de cristal en el suelo de la habitación (la cual quedó toda llena de cristales). Cuando fui al restaurante a pedirle una fregona para limpiar todos los restos de líquido, le comenté que me la podía dejar en recepción. Ella me dijo que no era necesario, que subía ella a limpiarlo. Como imaginareís, no lo limpió y tuvimos que estar calzados hasta casi para entrar a la ducha.
Al día siguiente, haciendo el check out, no se molestó ni en regalarnos una sonrisa, simplemente la dimos la tarjeta y nos despidió con un "hasta luego". Se notaba la frialdad.
Entre esto y el trato que se nos dio en el restaurante (llevado por ellos), hemos llegado a la conclusión de que lo más importante es el buen trato. No volveremos.
