Liked: cheap

Disliked: one of the staff was a bit rude and unfriendly. the kitchen is closed at night. i just needed some hot water to make a cup of Milo in the cold night but my request was turned down in a rude way. the guy at the reception said "don't you see the kitchen is closed?"

Liked: Cool hang out areas Good people Tapas near-by Staff

Disliked: The noise was horrendous. I usually dont compain about a bit of noise in a hostel, but this was outrageous. Its not that there were jerk offs staying there as much as it was a terrible design for dorms in a hostel. All the cramped dorms, which have "half walls" seperating them, are along a hallway near stairs and the only bathroom. You can visualize the noise at night and especially in the morning. This is only amplified by the fact that everyone who goes to granada at some point gets up super early to get in line for the alhambra. I went for a trip european trip for 4 months and this was by far the noisiest hostel and i was sleep deprived after 3 nights here. If u stay here, stay in the private rooms. I thought Alhambra was overrated. Staff was awesome! Went on some hostel tours with a free beer and tapas are great near-by.

Liked: Good sized rooms, great view from the rooftop terrace and 2 computers available to use. The hostel is only 2mins from the main square.

Disliked: Bathroom on first floor is smelly, old and not tall enough to stand up in propely. The shower shouldn't be classified as a shower. We used the bathroom on level 2 which was fine apart from the temperamental hot water & water pressure. Also, noisy men outside our room each night, yelling & smoking pot.

Liked: Great location in the heart of the medina in the beautiful town of Chefchouen .Excellent value for money, nice bedroom for the price, and very clean shared toilet/shower room. We stayed 2 nights here, would have loved to have stayed 1 more night and explored the area a little more, Chef is great, would love to return, very friendly, cheap, no hassle- this was brill for 2 female travellers, allthough this was our 1st stop in Marocco, so it only got worse! No major problems though.

Disliked: Bad internet connection when we were there, allthough no problem.

Liked: the staff were so helpful when i needed to change places for one night. also the location is really great and its very easy to find. very chilled rooftop terrace and great place to meet other travelers. you can book ctm buses from here and buy drinks and breakfast is good to purchase. value for money is also great. best place to stay in chef i think.

Disliked: the showers arent great as they're in with the toilets and sort of not exactly like a proper shower. also the door wouldnt close on one of the toilets. internet pretty slow and didnt always work.

Liked: very well placed and really good value for money - very relaxed and rooms a good size (i stayed in the 8 bed dorm)

Disliked: the shower on the first floor was not great - but the ones on the second floor and on the roof were good and usually free. the staff weren't that approachable, it seemed to be run by a group of young guys who sat around watching films all day - hard to tell who was working or not!

Liked: Great location and cheap. good place to meet people. Staff friendly and welcoming and the hostel was mostly clean.

Disliked: Bathrooms. Never had toilet pazper and there was a hole in the wall so anyone could look in. The door did not lock properly and get opening itself while you were in there. The first floor bathroom/shower is very short and I couldnt stand up in the shower: I am five seven. Wifi worked intermittently. There was a knife fight downstairs and a group of us were stuck in the hostel. Kitchen was terrible and always dirty.
