12 February 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: everything was quite good, especially for that price

Disliked: it`s a big hostel so, as often in that case, some guests don`t really care about the others (talk loud in the dorm at 4 am...) but i can`t really blame the hostel for that

30 January 2012

Liked: Lot of facilities ! Internet, huge kitchen, very clean and very close to the center of the city!

Disliked: Staff not really friendly and welcoming, the property is good but very bad evenings and nights because of the noise from 8pm to midnight or more ! Our room was small and in front of the kitchen. They make paella party every evening and its not possible to cook and eat in a quiet atmosphere. You don't really have the opportunity to go eslewhere because the rooftop is closed at 8 pm so if you like bad music and every night the same party in the kitchen you'll be happy. During the night they make a lot of noise claening the place without carring of the people sleeping just near them. I'll never go back !!

21 January 2012 Linda Maria would recommend this property

Liked: It is located in the middle of Valencia's Old Town, with plenty of bars, restaurants and shops close by. There is also a beautiful roof terrace with a lovely view which all guests can use. A particularly nice feature is that the hostel building is merged with a church, giving you a view of the church tower from the terrace, as well as the fact that it is surrounded by orange trees.

Disliked: At weekend nights, the bar across the street is home to a very noisy crowd. The noise unfortunately goes on until early morning. I also found it uncomfortable to have co-ed bathrooms and showers, located far away from my dorm.

Liked: Good location to city sights and 15 mins from bus station. Towels provided. Large well equipped kitchen for guests use. Vending machine that gives thick but really sweet hot chocolate. Good paella for only 5€. Supermarkets round the corner.

Disliked: Heater is turned off in the middle of the night. Wifi didnt work after the first night so for 3 nights I couldnt connect with my own equipment. An obnoxious middle-age man walked around in his bare underwear.

Liked: The atmosphere in this hostel was amazing. Everyone was so sociable and friendly, and it was great to meet people from all over the world. Very chilled out environment and helpful staff. The location was also great - very close to historic sites, and not too far to rent a bicycle or get the bus to the beach. I would definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Only downside is that there could be more showers, but it was never really an issue.
