Unfortunately, my experience at this hostel was disappointing. The staff didn’t come across as friendly or welcoming. It often felt like they didn’t really care about the guests or enjoy what they were doing. There were plenty of activities and services advertised, but no one proactively explained or offered them. Even some of the posters around the hostel promoted things that, according to the staff, were no longer…
I stayed at this hostel for two nights and had a superb experience. The place was spotless and well-maintained, and the staff were consistently warm and helpful. Special shout-outs to Ariel the bartender, who was kind and very accommodating, and Yuri at reception, who made check-in/out smooth and welcoming. As a solo female traveler I felt safe both at the hostel and while out on a Valencia tour with Kuya Chris. (Re…

Place is great for those who love Al fresco vibe. Their staff is accommodating and friendly. Food is okay with its price. I had a surprising time playing golf. They also have billiard table and internet connection is good.
Staff is always kind, helpful and smiling! Honestly, it’s one of the best parts of staying here. The 8 bed bunk is ok, massive room but the bunks squeak a bit. The 6 bed bunks are my preference, they are in a smaller room but very sturdy and dark at night. All rooms have 24/7 A/C, sometimes a bit too cold but they will gladly bump it up to 23c if asked. Let me say it again the staff is what makes this place awesome!
Such a friendly hostel with a good vibe. Clean and comfy rooms but the staff made it. Yuri in reception was very warm and helpful and Mark from housekeeping was friendly and our rooms were always perfect.
