25 September 2011 Catarina would recommend this property

Liked: great location, friendly staff, different things going on like fresh paella made by the cook at the hostel for only 5 euros

Disliked: TERRIBLE BATHROOMS Girls and boys don't have separate bathrooms. If you are a girl bear in mind you will have to share the same bathroom with boys, it wasn't very comfortable.

Liked: Every staff was kind, and eager to help with information we needed during the stay. Good internet connection.

Disliked: I had itching, skin eruptin after sleeping there. First, i thought it was multiple mosquito bites just around my left wrist. Another person in the same room said, he got similar rash. I think they are by bed bugs. I see bathrooms and toilets being cleaned all the time. But this is not sufficient. All the beds need to be sanitized. Actually, too many beds for the size of the room. That is why there is a sanitary problem.

12 September 2011 Ramona would recommend this property

Liked: the location is very very good, just in the heart of valencia! The hostel has an amazing kitchen and roof terrace....places where is easy to socialise with other guys.

Disliked: Unfortunately there was no air conditioning and that along with the presence of noisy bars, has made very difficult have a nice sleep. In addition, I didn't like sharing toilets/shower with boys!!

11 September 2011 Michael would recommend this property

Liked: Staff were great and te people staying were awesome! Very friendly and has the chance to build some great new relationships. The kitchen area was great too!

Disliked: The Internet connection was awful. Many of us had to check on flight times, train schedules, other hostels and we found ourselves constantly frustrated. Many of us had to go to the train stations without any knowledge, hoping for the best. Also, room 12 had no electronic key card and we had to use keys which are much easier to lose and they didn't have enough for everyone in the room! Sorry to be negative, but these were two issues that caused frustration in what could be a world class hostel.

23 August 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The rooms were clean and the hostel was really social, with the terrace and a fully stocked kitchen. The free walking tour was really good.

Disliked: The only one bad thing I would say is that they need more fans! There was only one in our dorm room and it barely worked, and there were none in the common areas which meant that the hostel was very very hot. I wasn't there to sleep much so it wasn't the worst thing in the world but met some people who really had problems sleeping.
