Was not possible cooking. Because it was Saturday and kitchen closed at 8. No one told me about that but discovered by myself after buying stuff to cook dinner.

A cool hostel, but unfortunately I won’t return due to poor customer service. I wanted to arrive a night earlier, in order to do so was forced to book a minimum of 2 nights, even though I had already reserved the second night. I assumed my original booking would be adjusted or canceled, but no such flexibility was offered.

Llegamos y el lugar olía pésimo todo el lugar incluida la pieza y el baño. Era un olor a desagüe y humedad pésimo!!! El baño no estaba limpio y ninguno tenía papel higiénico. Mi cama y la de mis amigos tenían pelos

La recepción no es 24 horas si llegas más tarde de cuando han cerrado el hotel tienes que dormir en la calle como le pasó a una chica de mi habitación, en cambio a mí me dijeron que me daban una taquilla para dejar las cosas ya que mi vuelo salía a la una de la madrugada pero cuando volví a por ellas la llave que me dieron no abría la puerta y estuve esperando como 50 minutos a que alguien entrara o saliera del hostel para poder coger mis cosas eran las 9:30 pm. Casi perdí el vuelo

Pareciera que el dueño no puede despedir a ciertos empleados por lo que los ha dejado estar tanto tiempo que ya se han acostumbrado a estar como si fuese su casa olvidando que es un negocio. Todo el foco del hostel está centrado en los trabajadores que están ahí. En vez de ser al revés. No es un hostel para nada de conocer gente lo cual por mi estaba bien ya que quería trabajar en paz. Pero no fue posible ni una ni la otra. Las camas genial. Tiene un cajon donde dejar tus cosas al ...

There is no reception 24h. We had to sleep on the floor next to the cockroachs. And after sleeping for 8 hours in that mess, we talked with a woman in the cafeteria and she was super rude with us and she didn't care. Don't recommend at all this place.

Vond het geen fijn hostel. Omdat er een bar naast zit merk je niet wie wel en niet in het hostel verblijven. Er hangt geen sfeer en krijgt weinig contact met mensen. De doucheruimten waren niet schoon en beperkt opbergruimte. De 'keuken' ging pas om 0800 uur open omdat ze dan pas het restaurant/bar openen. Wil je dus om 0700 uur ontbijten, of een kop thee zetten, dan kan dat dus niet.

My room was the hottest room I had ever had to “sleep in” in my life. I didn't even sleep, I went to the lobby and paced and sat till sunrise, then left in the morning. Any time I would attempt to sleep in the room, I’d leave cause I was sweating like a sauna. There were no employees there during the night, so even when I called, no one to speak to. The bathroom was gross, like a really bad outdated high school gym locker room. The front desk was extremely rude via email. Location was sket...

Solid hostel with comfortable beds and nice lockers. Location is close to the beach which is nice. Only downsides are reception has limited hours and the lobby closes at a certain time, and the showers were dirty. Overall would stay again tho

o lugar e legal, mas só do fato de fechar a cozinha as 23:30 e você não poder pegar nada na geladeira não recomendo, e no dia 24 e 25 de dezembro fecharam a cozinha as 16h da tarde, uma coisa séria você não poder cozinhar,, mais ter acesso a microondas e a uma geladeira e primordial para um viajante, então a pior parte desse lugar foi essa, cozinha limitada para uso. não recomendo.

Overall a great stay in Valencia! The hostel itself was easy to get to and check in. Good distance from the city center. Facilities were fairly clean, and the provided lockers worked perfectly. We were also able to leave our bags in lockers after checking out. Didn't see any other youth in the hostel though; a lot of older adults, but there was also some sort of event that could've contributed to the older age range.

Overall average. Location was good, friendly staff. Acceptable cleaning conditions. My main dislike comes from ventilation of the space. There were not enough air exchange. Bathrooms smell moldy in general. Bad smells from restrooms' users scape out to the hallway impregnating the entire place. I think this happens because there's no effective ventilation system in the restroom. I won't recommend.

Muito bem localizado e com boa instalações. Foram flexíveis em relação a deixar as malas antes oq ajuda muito! Ponto negativo foi a limpeza do banheiro e a organização do hostel, havia um grupo fazendo muita bagunça e muito barulho no hostel tarde da noite e sujando muito o banheiro deixando imundo

Los baños solo limpian a la mañana , de noche están explotados . Necesitas el bus si o si (Que esta en la puerta prácticamente ) para ir a la playa y para ir al centro , está a la mitad de ambas cosas . El resto todo perfecto , la cocina está bien , las chicas de recepción súper amables , colchones súper cómodos y cerveza tirada barata !

Staff were very helpful and friendly. Close location to the beach only a 20 minute walk or there’s bikes to rent very close. Didn’t really use the kitchen as it was unavailable for 1 night I was there due to an event which is a little disappointing if you wanted to cook anything. Rooms were nice and clean. Bathrooms were okay, bit of a constant funny smell.

Washing machine and dryer!!!! Perfectly fine hostel, would recommend for people 22 and above. Not much of an atmosphere unfortunately but it’s a nice place to be.

It's alright. I'd probably try a different hostel next time that's closer either to the city center or the beach because it didn't matched my personal vibe. Probably because of the wide age gap between the guests. But you definitly don't make a mistake by booking it, it's super clean, the stuff is friendly, and the kitchen has a lot of space, fridges and anything else you might need.
