    At some point the toilet in the room ran out of toilet paper. It would be good to have back up toilet paper there

    The rooms were clean ans I love the privacy that the bed design gives people sleeping in shared rooms. It was also very good to stay in a female -only room as it created a friendly environment and we ended up going out together.

    Automatic lights in the room meant that even if you're trying to be quiet and respectful at night, entering the room or going to the bathroom, the light turns on anyway! The beds were rather more enclosed than I expected. It very quickly gets very warm...

    Friendly welcome, free tea and coffee and comfortable and fun common area.

    The locker under the bed had a broken hinge which made it annoying opening and closing it. Plus the proximity of the bunks/pods was not great when others are snoring.

    The kitchen was very good as were the majority of the facilities.

    The room is way too small and without enough fresh air; the bathroom (or not even a "room" because it's not fully isolated) easily causes noises and I actually got awake from one of my roommate bathing

    The location is fine; everything is basically provided; beds are with curtain

    I found the neighborhood a little bit sketchy. It’s really 5 min away from the center but, as woman, I didn’t feel safe. Nothing happened, just a lot of staring.

    The Hostel is very nice, comfortable bed, equipped kitchen for every needs, nice atmosphere and clean.

    Beautiful small hostel at messy street

    The upper bed was frightening for me because no any border so I fear to die to fall down sleeping.. but I suppose for other persons it's not a problem. No own small light with bed. The room was very small and shower was in the room (noisy). Location good distance, but the street was messy and a little bit frightening, some men shouting to you when you walking by.

    Clean, a very nice kitchen, freetour, clean, friendly service

    The bed was a bit uncomfortable, especially when going inside, but that's about it. I was able to sleep through the night anyway. I also got a bit confused about the location of the hostel because there was a sign on the other side of the street with a similar name.

    The hostel's location's great since it's just a few minutes away from the main attractions of the city like Aljafería, the Basilica, and the Cathedral. I also like that the hostel's got air-con since I visited in July which is one of the hottest months in this region. The hostel, the shared room and bathroom also seemed clean in general.

    I had to pay a deposit for a towel. It was not mentioned in the conditions. Automatic light in a room which woke up everyone else. No hanger for a towel in a bathroom.

    Nice common space. Good tea (for free) but finished in the morning, for a breakafast.

    The kitchen doesn't have a hob to cook on, just some appliances like an air fryer and sandwich toaster, but this isn't really too important because you can eat out in zaragoza on a low budget

    Clean, friendly, sociable, the best option in zaragoza, free coffee! I've stayed in hostels all over the world and this is a good one

    The auto lights in the rooms that turn on when someone moves make sleeping very difficult (my privacy curtain was half hanging off so didn't block out any light). Also not a huge fan of the single shower and toilet in the room - these weren't blocked off by any door so you can hear people very easily and it's hard to feel like you have any privacy at all. The location is down a back street and felt a bit sketchy at night but was totally fine during the day.

    Cute hostel with clean rooms and a spacious, friendly common area equipped with a fridge, utensils etc.

    Breakfast would've been nice, especially when paying for a private room.

    Beautiful en suite double room with two balconies. Stylishly decorated. Large, very clean bathroom and excellent shower. TV, including Netflix. Superfast WiFi. Excellent security. I liked the area of the city it's in. Lovely girl at reception for check in and check out. A quiet night's sleep- no traffic as the hostel overlooks a pedestrianised street. Free coffee and tea.

    The only downside were the short reception hours which made getting stuff like towels, bed liners outside those hours uncomfortable or impossible.

    The hostel uses capsule beds that are very comfortable, spacious and private compared to regular bunk beds. The bathroom/shower area was modern, clean and also comfortable to use. The common spaces were well preserved for a hostel and pleasurable to spend time in. The location was good with close proximity to the center (5 min walk). The train/bus station also wasn't too far, about 20-30 min walk or 15 min by bus.
