06 September 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The guy on reception was really helpful, I came to Salamanca in need of temporary accomodation until I find a flat and the receptionist gave me loads of useful information and went out of his way to help. The hostel is really clean and tidy, although the bathrooms are shared, they are kept clean. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of the city and has a communal living room where you can chill out and meet other people in the hostel.All in all I think it's great value for money, centrally located, clean, great atmosphere and really friendly helpful staff

02 September 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was right in the middle of Salamanca and everything was easily accessible. Although it did not have air conditioning the rooms did not get too uncomfortably hot. Although it was shared bathroom etc, you did have access to a sink in your room, which made quite a difference. Nice communal area with lots of seating and room to eat - however see below.

Disliked: No kitchen facilities or fridge available.

02 September 2010

Liked: The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. The hostel does what it says on the tin and is at a very reasonable price.

Disliked: If you have a room that looks onto the Calle Rua Mayor, it is extremely noisy at all times except siesta time, and there is no kitchen or computer area so it is more difficult to meet people in the hostel itself.

06 August 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was in a very convenient location pretty much in the centre of the city (which really isn´t big) and given that there were two doors to go through before reaching your room I felt very secure. It was cool inside after the heat of the street although the room I stayed in got a bit stuffy. Having said that it was very quiet being located at the back of the building. I really liked the fact that it was an old building and given the fact that it cost me 18 euros I thought it was, all in all, very good value.The guy on reception told me that he and his partner had recently taken it over and he was really helpful. He gave me a map, advice and lent me his plug adaptor! If all you need is a cheap, clean and cheerful room in a handy central location then you really can´t ask for more that Hostal Tormes.

Disliked: The only inconvenience for me was that they didn´t provide towels.

Liked: The kindness of the owners and their disponibility to help de client every moment (with information about places in the city and in the province, giving maps and other information documents). The nearness to the Plaza Mayor (only one minute by foot). The cleaness of the room. The quietness of the hostal at the night. The young and familiar ambient.

24 April 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The facilities are a bit outdated, but the rooms were clean, and there was free WiFi. The front desk was not always staffed, but guests were given keys to open the exterior door and the door into the hostel. The hostel was a good value for the price, and the location more than made up for any shortcomings in the facilities. The hostel is within walking distance of the Plaza Mayor, the cathedral, the university, and most other major sights.

09 March 2010

Liked: NONE of the staff spoke English. We got 1 key to the room and got locked out at 1:30am and no one was there to let us in. No WIFI. Rude staff, not a single smile once. Their credit card machine was broken and when we told them they had to pay our ATM fee, they tried to split the fee with us instead of just admitting the mistake. Towels were not ready until our second day. I would NOT stay here again.
