Good location, friendly staff. I was in a 6-bed female dorm, really feel 4 beds would be much better as it felt very squashed, especially in the morning when everyone was trying to get up at the same time and there is only 1 shower and toilet for the room. Breakfast is great value and the coffee is really good.

The hostel was ok, it is very central located. The roof top terrace and chill room with kitchen is nice. The beds are very small and a bit loud (you notice it when you sleep with many people in one room).

A destacar lo bueno primero: la ubicación es perfecta para muchas cosas para hacer, limpieza buena, puedes entrar y salir a cualquier hora y dejar tus pertenencias antes de el check in. Lo que no nos gustó es el personal tanto en la estancia como antes de reservar por varios motivos. Muy antipáticos por así calificarlos. Las luces de la habitación es lo que menos nos gustó porque no se ve nada de nada y se escucha todo de afuera (las puertas muchisimo). Tpc nos gusto que el check in es 14:30 y la check out 11:00, ni 24! Para una noche u dos no está mal.

Escapada a Sevilla

Reservamos una habitación doble con baño privado. Nos gusta hospedarnos en hostels, para estar cerca del centro de las ciudades y otros beneficios: cocina, etc. Nos molestó mucho la falta de respeto de los horarios de descanso nocturno. Descontrol, ruidos, gritos, golpes de puerta, en horarios de descanso nocturno. A las 2.00, 3.00, 4.00 am
