Liked: Lower price than other hostels in Salamanca. Fairly friendly staff and decent location, but it would be hard to be bad in such a compact city as Salamanca.

Disliked: 20 bed rooms was a bit much, and no safes or lockers, you had to pay extra to put things in the safe at the front desk, and pay extra to leave your luggage there past 12 PM when you check out. Not a very social hostel.

Liked: Price is cheap. Since there are not many other hostels in Salamanca, this might be your only option.

Disliked: Not a good place to meet people. The bathroom is not the cleaniest I've seen. Beds are old and shaky. No atmosphere at all.

Liked: It was clean and wifi worked.

Disliked: It is extremely basic. Not only no breakfast but not even a small kitchen or fridge to keep food! no laundry, no common area. Room was really overheated even after I asked for it too be turned down so we sweated all night and and a terrible sleep. It's Ok for 1 night but would definitely recommend upgrading if you are staying any longer! Also no lockers.

Liked: great location (but that is also because salamanca is so tiny), loads of beds in one room so its sociable, lots of toilets and showers.

Disliked: it worries me that the front door is always left open and the people working at the desk dont know everyone who is staying there so basically absolutely anyone can just walk in and walk into any room (none have locks).
