    The wi-fi was almost nonexistent, it should have been available only at the entrance and in the living room next to it but in the end was working only in the reception area. No connection at all in the rooms. Even if we knew there was no full kitchen available, we expected to find at least a fridge, a microwave and a boiler for small snacks when needed but none of it was available. The reception sells coffee, tea and water but when closed you are left with nothing.

    Beautiful big historical building left almost untouched when transformed into a hostel. All the spaces were very clean. The reception was open until late and available for any information. Breakfast was simple but fresh.

    the rooms were VERY small for 6 people, old bunkbeds that made a lot of noise everytime you moved, EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE matress and pillow, not so clean bathroom. Also very poor breakfast. no kitchen, no amenities.

    good location with good views, nice restaurant just next to the hostel, and very cute old building.

    The beds are terrible to sleep in. Also you cannot borrow the kitchen e.g. The fridge or any utensils. Which really limits you food options?

    It is a beautiful and spacious property, located really well.

    Unfortunately there was no kitchen. WiFi is only available in one room near the reception, but it didn't even work there. The dormitories are quite cramped. The foosball table is broken.

    The accommodation has a nice courtyard and a good location. Breakfast with rolls, cheese, ham, jam, cornflakes, coffee and juice is included.

    Unfortunately we had a very unpleasant room guest with us, which staff were aware of and sympathetic but did not move him (or us) - meaning that we had trouble sleeping and when we did sleep it was interrupted many times. This definitely impacted our trip as sleep is important. They also limit the amount of breakfast you're allowed as well as refuse to let you take anything with you out of the kitchen. I found this weird, because if they're going to ration your breakfast you should at least be allowed to bring any leftover rations with you for lunch or something.

    Great location, friendly staff, lockers available and beds were fine. Very close to some lovely snorkelling spots!

    A youth hostel should serve the function of being able to socialize, cook your own meals and use internet to keep in touch with family. This hostel provided none of them, it was simply a bed set in an historic location. There is no kitchen available, the wifi only works in one small room and there is nowhere to fill water bottles except in the small bathroom sinks. This hostel has so much potential to be awesome, it needs some work.

    The setting was idyllic, set in an old monestry with a great view. Staff were helpful.

    - staff was not accommodating at all; we ask to borrow a knife to cut some fruit and put a some food in the fridge over night, both was denied - poorly sound proofed hallways; you could hear every one talk in their rooms - breakfast was the bare minimum and not very healthy - water pressure in the shower was very low Suggestion: A guest kitchen as well as some fridges would really improve the place and hummus and margarine for breakfast would make it vegan friendly

    + super clean room + special location + sea view + beds were made everyday + towels were provided + a lot of parking space

    To much cold water waste until hot water appear in shower. No kitchen facilities, not normal for a youth hostel with plenty of space, no services at all (no even a coffe machine), week internet ou not working at all, it wasnt provide padlock for the locker in the room and my sun glasses and my mp3 was stollen. The staff said that the cleanning staff was on the room, than it changes his argument and says that no body was in the room that morning. No much help by the staff.

    A ancient religious building now use has hostel. With no clouds you can see Pico Mountain and S. Jorge island.
