Overall, this was a very mixed experience. At first, everything was great. The staff were kind, helpful, and welcoming, and I really liked the atmosphere of the hostel. However, the night experience was not acceptable. Between 3–5 AM, there was serious noise in the room. Guests were shouting, banging lockers, and leaving the door open for long periods of time. I felt unsafe and couldn’t sleep at all. After that, people were talking and socializing in the corridor, and the noise came dire...
Les chambres étaient super moches et noires de l'intérieur ! beaucoup d'arabes maghrébin qui discutent à haute voix ! Ne respectent pas les personnes qui dorment ! C'était pas très safe pour moi! Les casiers sont cassés donc laisser ses affaires dedans n'a aucun intérêt !
Avoid! Lockers are not secured! Had Euros stolen from my locker! Heard of others having stuff stolen! Not a true backpackers hostel, more of a cheap place for locals to stay if they don’t have an apartment or house. Also not social at all!!!

No puedes cocinar nada,solo hay micro y lavaplatos/refrigerador. Los que trabajando ahi siempre tienen musica,se pasean por todo el hostel,hablando en alto,fumando y el humo entra a las habitaciones, no es taaan bueno para descansar… Muy bonito el area comun,las habiataciones normales,sabanas limpias,baño limpio.
the worst hostel we have ever stayed in after 3 months backpacking. the showers have transparent glass doors and no curtains so there’s no privacy at all. the staff were really rude and unhelpful when I woke up with bed bug bites and they told me they didn’t have them and offered no apology. the lockers in the room were tiny and half of the locks didn’t work so there was nowhere to leave your stuff. the ‘luggage storage’ is the hallway to the hostel. only redeeming feature is location ...
DON’T GO!
Expensive for what it's worth. Beds a bit uncomfortable, rooms stank and the showers are just pure glass so no privacy. Not that big of a deal overall, just expensive relative to the other hostels in the city and what they offer. Staff is kind and fun. 5 euro for luggage storage after 3pm is bit odd.
El hostal muy bien ubicado, los chicos del staff amables pero la limpieza terrible, soy viajero, me quedo mucho en hostels, se lo que puedo encontrar el los hostels, pero en este fui incapaz de entrar a la ducha, qué asco!
The hostel is one of the worst I have been to. The toilet and bathroom was a joke, there’s only one shower in the entire with no curtains, and it looked like was not maintained. Door handles, taps were all broken. Totally unacceptable. The rooms had no heating and there was constant noise coming from the street because the room is not soundproof at all. It’s as if the wall is made of plastic cover. There was no curtains either, just a piece of paper covering the room, so there’s light co...

Limpio, cómodo, fácil acceso. Baño cómodo y camas limpias.
Overall it was pretty disappointing. The bar was out of action for the duration I stayed, so there was no atmosphere. Also, no curtains on the 4 bed mixed room beds! Staff were really nice, and location is great.
Gepäckaufbewahrung nur bis 15uhr gratis
Nice hostel , very clean and staff are quite accommodating I will definitely recommend. Thanks again for having me !
Excelente el lugar, el personal muy amable, las instalaciones super limpias, puedes cocinar ahí y en la parte de abajo hay un tipo bar argentino donde las empanadillas son lo maaasss, y las personas súper cálidas. Volvería sin duda!
Die Lage des Hostels ist wirklich top – sehr zentral, man kommt zu Fuß überall hin (Strand, Bars, Supermärkte). Das ist definitiv der größte Pluspunkt. Allerdings ist es kein typisches Party- oder Social-Hostel. Während meines Aufenthalts waren die Gäste eher zurückhaltend, und es gab nur wenige Solo-Traveller, wodurch es schwer war, Anschluss zu finden. Der Staff war gemischt: Ein Teil (Rezeption und Nachtwächter) war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Leider hatte ich aber auch ...
not really satisfied
Good hostel, though surely it can’t be cost prohibitive to put up some curtains between the showers.
The location is close to the city center and it’s fairly clean, but unfortunately my experience was not comfortable. I found myself sleeping in a room shared with hostel staff, with noise during the night and frequent entries and exits early in the morning, which made it very difficult to rest.

Ik ben 23 jaar en er waren weinig reizigers van mijn leeftijd, ze waren allemaal veel ouder (sommigen van 50+). Dit is helemaal niet erg, maar wel jammer als je like minded reizigers van je eigen leeftijd verwacht. Het water om te douchen was ijskoud :( Mijn medereiziger lag in een bed met bloedplekken tegen de muur…
I stayed one day and felt so welcoming :)
El Hostel está muy bien, salvo q la recepción está pegada a las habitaciones y por la noche se hace demasiado ruido.
Accueil minimaliste: sans mise en avant des services disponibles (notamment le petit-déjeuner). Interaction limitée aux formalités de base : bonjour, contrôle d’identité, remise de la clé, au revoir. Dommage!
I really wanted to like this place, because I met a bunch of fun people on the pub crawl and some of the volunteers were great:) However, everyday they basically close down the kitchen, bathrooms, and small single common area to clean. This takes about 4 hours, where they just expect you to not exist. During this time, the staff was super rude (they act like your existence is a burden). Unfortunately, the bad actors really ruined what could be a great hostel. I would absolutely not go again.
Un hostal genial, de gestión familiar, con gente amable y una ubicación muy práctica. Lo recomiendo a todo el mundo. 😘🤙🤝
