My wife and I will be in Seville and Granada for a couple of nights each. We're not normally fussy about where we stay but I'd like to find a hostal in each city with a real Anadalusian feel - center courtyard that type of thing. It's something we're not likely to find anywhere else, so I thought this time, let's be a little picky. Something around 50 euros a night would be great. I was also thinking staying in Barrio Santa Cruz when in Seville but don't want to limit suggestions to that area only.

Any recommendations/reviews are appreciated. Thanks.

For Granada I stayed here Hotel Casa del Capitel Nazarí. http://www.hotelcasacapitel.com/

The photo on their website is of the courtyard. The hotel used to be someone's home and does have the feel. I reviewed it, posted a positive review here in this forum when I stay there in February 2005.
