Good location, friendly staff. I was in a 6-bed female dorm, really feel 4 beds would be much better as it felt very squashed, especially in the morning when everyone was trying to get up at the same time and there is only 1 shower and toilet for the room. Breakfast is great value and the coffee is really good.

The kids were fairly noisy on the rooftop patio each afternoon and evening. Room smells were not great. It was simple just “fine”.

Escapada a Sevilla

Reservamos una habitación doble con baño privado. Nos gusta hospedarnos en hostels, para estar cerca del centro de las ciudades y otros beneficios: cocina, etc. Nos molestó mucho la falta de respeto de los horarios de descanso nocturno. Descontrol, ruidos, gritos, golpes de puerta, en horarios de descanso nocturno. A las 2.00, 3.00, 4.00 am
