Liked: Great place to meet people, there are different events on every night like flamenco, tapas, pub crawls etc, so if that's what you're up for it's definitely a great place. Clean, comfortable and warm. I liked that even though it said we had to pay for towels, we were given free ones cos only tiny towels were available. Good call on the part of the staff. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Fantastic location.

Disliked: REALLY needs noise insulation. All night we could hear the conversations of the people on the street below like they were shouting right next to us. Bring earplugs, or you will get zero sleep. In fact, in general if you don't want a party hostel, this is not your place. Even though I was aware beforehand that we might be put in the second property, it was still a little irritating to have to drag ourselves over to the primary hostel every time we wanted to cook or use computers etc, especially when there were kitchen facilities in our dorm rooms. If they'd just supplied a couple of saucepans, plates etc it would have been so much more convenient.

16 February 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: On of the best hostels ever. The breakfast it was good, the room it was very clean and also beautiful. In ,y stay the hostel organized a paella for just 5 euros and another day there was a tapas tour ( the guide doesnt work for the hostel but it nice to meet people. The staff were very frienly.

Disliked: The only problem was that there just one bathromm for each room, so if you are in a group you to wait for the others. Another thing is ( but that is a recommendantion ) is that the free walking tour was made by a girl who did for her first time the tour and at the end she asked for 5 euros or more, so i think for a free tour we can choose how much we are going to give as tips.

Disliked: It was really really hard to find the place. I didn t have clean bad linen. I had no locker in the room. You can have your breakfast from about 9 oclock I dont remember exactly but quite late.

Liked: A friend of mine and I were put in an apartment room where no one else was staying. There was a bathroom and a kitchen in the room, all of which were very clean. The room was very spacious.

Disliked: It was hard to pull the luggages up the stairs. The kitchen sink stank a lot. It was cold at night.

10 January 2011

Liked: Good location in an awesome part of seville and great dinners

Disliked: the tapas tour was a huge let down - an unfriendly guide who only went to one place before herding everyone off to flamenco. After staying at the Oasis hostel in Granada, this hostel was a pretty big letdown

03 January 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: A good clean hostel. Nice bar downstairs. I enjoyed the hostels walking tour. They have a good kitchen for self-catering. Location is great too.

Disliked: If the staff member who washes breakfast dishes on the weekends isnt going to show up for work they should say that guests can go behind the bar and wash dishes themselves. Otherwise they run out of bowls and spoons pretty fast. Also, the internet went down quite often on some of the computers.

Liked: Really clean, nice looking rooms, and helpful, friendly staff.

Disliked: The kitchen is possibly a bit small, and it's slightly inconvenient to only have 1 bathroom per room.

12 December 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel was great and a really good place to meet other people. The tours and other events organised were really good. The staff were really helpful and friendly. It felt like a really secure place to stay as well.

Disliked: My room was actually in a separate building to the reception, bar, kitchena and computer area. It wasn´t a huge hassle but it would have been good to have some prior warning.

Liked: Location! comfortable beds

Disliked: We were a group of 7 people, we had a 6bed room for five of us and a double room and only a shared bathroom (1 shower, etc.) for all of us. Our rooms weren’t in the main building. We had a problem with heating. The first night nobody said to us that we must "rent" a remote control for the heating air conditioning and we were absolutely frozen during the night. Next day we told this at reception and then we rent the remote control, but it doesn’t work… it’s supposed that you can switch on the heating between 8pm – 8am, but it’s not true. And finally, the third day we asked for blankets

29 November 2010 Jeffery would recommend this property

Liked: Nice welcoming drink. Great tour to see genuine flamenco dancing. Lots of information on what was available to see locally.

Disliked: Kitchen was rather cramped and could only cope with 10 people seated at a time. Requested a dbl room with private facilities and therefore put into their other property 50yards away-being in the older age bracket (50-60), that wasn't such a bad thing. Disappointed with the sheets-given 4 single fitted sheet to go on our double bed! Weird!!! No heating in this second building. Lots of blankets available as adjoining 4bed dorm had no-one in it.
