    No staff on site, access details arrive on day of travel - but good facilities

    Anyone booking needs to know there are no staff on site. You have to send photo of passport in advance and only get access details on day of travel. It works but adds to the stress and isn't clear when booking. Also, anyone getting up in the night for toilet will trigger bright light in dormitory. Although bunks have curtains, everyone is disturbed.

    Clean, good kitchen and communal area

    The lockers were too small and you have to bring your own handlock and I (personal opinion!) missed the reception or staff around in case I have questions.

    The rooms are simple but comfortable and the kitchen/living room on the groundfloor is beautiful and has everything you need :)

    Kitchen was not great (didn’t have basic ingredients like salt or tea, no stove), the street is in a sketchy neighbourhood, however you can take a different route through the main street and it’s completely ok

    Quiet hostel, very cheap, pretty clean

    The light in the room is a bit annoying. It’s motion-sensible and you cannot turn off the main light. Each time someone got up during midnight the light would turn on. And the curtain for the bunk couldn’t cover the whole bed, so you could be easily woken up by the light.

    Good value for money

    Great for a short stay for lone travellers who don't mind sharing common facilities with others.

    • Bunk Bed in Mixed Dormitory Room

    The kitchen lacks a stovetop and an oven (only a microwave and kettle are available to warm up food and prepare hot beverages). Since there is no physical reception, the check-in and check-out procedures can be a bit confusing and impersonal.

    Great location, in a quiet street but very near the city centre and the major attractions. The facilities are good and regularly cleaned, including the bathrooms. The common kitchen has cutlery, cups and plates for common use, as well as cleaning supplies. The beds are comfortable and the pod-like arrangement allows for privacy and cosiness, without it being stuffy or claustrophobic. The simple finishings in plywood are comfortable in winter and quiet.

    Small things, not worth mentioning.

    Considering being a hostel it was really good. Room was clean, own bathroom, basic but all necessities there. Orga worked well though all via online / whatsapp. In walking distance to oldtown and sights. Would choice it again.

    The street in which the hostel is located is a bit scary, I walked several times it was almost always empty or there was a group of men staring. As a female solo traveller I didn't dare to go out by myself at night. Also it didn't have many opportunities to meed other people as a solo traveller. I would like to mention that, before booking, I checked if they had a hairdryer option-which they were supposed to have. But when I washed my hair and asked them via wa - they simply replied that this option is not available!

    It was really clean, the kitchen was fully equiped. I stayed im a private room which was really comfortable.

    You have to go to other sites to leave the luggage either before check in or after check out. if there is a place on site that would be great. The light motion detector is always on so everything anyone moves in the room the light is on. it could be better is this can be turned of somehow especially every bed has its own light.

    Easy check in and the pass was sent immediately on the day of arrival. Location is great in the historic area. Everything you may need are located in walking distance. Got the chance to be there when Pilar 2024 was held so enjoyed it.

    Sheets are provided but not towels, including there being no handtowels in the dorm room. The private dorm bathroom is not a separate room, meaning the shower and sink are open to the rest of the room. So, there is less privacy and more noise from other guests.

    The location is convenient for exploring the city and the decor is cute and comfy. It was not staffed in person but there were good instructions around the common areas.
