Perfect location, everything clean, very friendly and sociable atmosphere, can't fault this hostel - i stayed here twice already. Breakfast was great, a selection of sweet and savoury, juice, coffee, milk, and friendly waiters. Breakfast was served in a great time (7:30-10:30) so it suited my busy travel schedule. There was a toilet and shower in our room, as well as another two toilets and two showers that were shared between the floor. Never had any problems with waiting for one to become free. Beds and pillows super comfortable, and long enough even for tall people (185cm!). Little reading lamp and a small shelf next to my bed, plenty of hooks to hang stuff on. The receptionist was a local and was able to give me advice on how to get to the airport. Thank you so much for a lovely stay and I'll definitely come back!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The location is very central, the hostel seems very secure, very quiet and I felt very safe. It was clean, much nicer than I expected, the entrance hallway when you walk into the main hostel area is a treat. This was my first time staying in a hostel with other people and bunk beds in 20 odd years, and it was great to meet and speak to other people.

    Really lovely and friendly place to stay! The staff were accommodating from the outset and make lots of recommendations on the best places to sight see. The rooms were spacious and clean and the beds were comfy, all facilities working perfectly. The hostel is in a great location all round and there’s a really welcoming atmosphere as they arrange lots of group activities and dinners so you feel settled in straight away. Would recommend to anyone, especially if you’re a female solo traveller as it feels very safe!

Every day they organise fun activities and there was even free dinner when I was there, tortilla/bravas/pinxtos, delicious! The staff members are super friendly and helpfull, even manage to remember your name! Would absolutely recommend this place :)
