For my very first hostel experience it was absolutely amazing! I stayed in an all girls room and all the girls were so sweet and kind. They staff and the other folks staying in the hostel made it so easy to talk to. Was able to also get lots of recommendations. Even the laundry was so easy to do!!def would stay again.

Exceeded my expectations! The room was very clean, beds were comfortable, safe in the room for security, large patio, bath and shower facilities were spacious, and staff were friendly and happy to assist and it was in a central safe location. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it. It was my first time staying in a Hostel with 2 friends traveling through Spain so I wasn't sure what to expect. Booking the private room with bathroom was nicer and more comfortable than many hotels I have stayed in.
