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 ...

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.

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...

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…

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.

Hostel was fine and served its purpose for one night, with some really nice cafes nearby. Alicante mercado also close by. But social elements of this hostel was zero with no common room so struggled to make any connections.
