Liked: The accomodation is cheap and the hostel really well located! The staff is friendly and wants you to have fun in their hostel (pub crawl, tapas crawl..). There are a lot of rooms so there is a lot of people to meet and to party with! Big kitchen and patio on the top of the hostel!

Disliked: Bring your own thing to lock the safe because if not you have to buy one a the hostel

Liked: Firstly, the location is incredible....is in the center of the center....i think it has the best location. But if you are interested just in staying on the beach, maybe you should find another hostel because it,s a long distance (but of course you have buses - 1,30€/ticket :P). It,s clean, they give you towel and everything for you bed, and the toilets and the showers are clean too. The kitchen is very nice. You have everithing you need, including food sometimes (because some of those checking out, are leaving some food they don´t use or need, so.....you can serve yourself :) ) It-s a nice place. I very recommend it !!! :P

Disliked: they don´t have AC. They have ventilators, which is good, but in the summer, at 35, 40º it´s difficult to resist with ventilators. And they close the terace at 8 PM :(

14 June 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Good location. Good sized locker but you need your own padlock. KItchen and rooftop terrace are really good sizes. Also you can buy beer from the vending machine in the kitchen! The pub crawl that's run is really good as well.

Disliked: Only three computers for a big hostel. But there is WiFi. And if you're gonna spend all your time in Valencia on the internet, shame on you.

Liked: Its in the center of the city, just minutes walk from the main bars and nightlife. Use of kitchen was great as it could get expensive eating out in restaurants lunch and dinner.

Disliked: The website says that check-in is at 12:00, I had to wait until 14:00 to be given the key for the room. Forget about sleeping at night. Being in the center, close to the main bars and nightlife, it was noisy at night and it goes on till around 4 o'clock in the morning.

Liked: By far the best backpackers we have ever been to. Met heaps of awesome people, staff was really nice and alays could help, tons of tourist info around, best location in the centre of the old city, free wifi on every floor and computers downstairs, huge common room and kitchen, clean bathrooms, and lots of them. If you want to stay in valencia, stay here!

Disliked: the only thing we can think of is there is no conventional oven, saying that though, there are like 6 fridges, 2 microwaves and 2 stovetops!

08 May 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It was in a great location and had free computers to use (internet and all!). The kitchen was fantastic! Huge and you can cook whatever you would like... just have to clean up after yourself. There is a fresh food market just down the street that has reasonable prices and great food! I would stay here again for sure! It wasn't too loud at night etiher. You can go out all night or get sleep. It is up to you.

Disliked: It was very far away from the beach... but I guess that is what you get for being so close to everything in the city.
