Well appointef, clean, comfortable. Not too social
Clean, easy check in, quiet sleep, working wifi, bathrooms and showers in good shape, lockers, shelf/storage and outlet at bed. Heat and aircon. The bed light is blinding and the common area is closed along with cafe/reception at night but it's a good location and a safe, comfortable stay. Plus an elevator so no taking the stairs!
The friendly staff are more than accommodating the lady there in reception was so helpful and kind to me I would go back to see her as she was totally awesome and the clean bright and modern environment was a lot more value for money than expected.
When i arrived utvwas closed although it stated reception would be open until 11pm. I had previosly advused the hostel and hotels .com that I may arrive late due to a late flight arrival. I was told this was okay as arrangements had been made. Emergency contact details were useless as only a voicemail servuce that no one replied to. Even after contacting hotels.com I was given no assistance and was leftbto spend rhe night on the streets until bus services resumed the next morning. To add insult to injury I was also told that I would be charged for the room I did not get to occupy. Overall a horendous experience that I never want to repeat.

Cheap and convenuent for short term stay.
Cheap.
Easily Access from the bus stop, shopping center, and Santa Babara Castle.
Kind service, but prepare some towel and soap for shower and bath otherwise you must pay for them.
Friendly staff, clean place and cheap. Area is perfect if you need to travel to and from airport (bus stop 5 mins away) and 10 mins to some great restaurants and bars
It was really clean and nice, staff could have been a bit more friendly

Dirty shower & toilet - hard bed
Hostel is relatively new, so sheets were still in good condition, though mattress was rock-hard. Room was superficially clean but floor needed to be swept and mopped. Most importantly, the hall toilet and shower which I used for my 4 nights I spent there since my 4-bed room was not en-suite did not get cleaned the entire time I was there. Same wrappers and soap scum in shower, same trash in WC rubbish bin, and same dirty toilet. Yuck! Only toilet paper got restocked. Also - all, and I mean all public spaces - the (tiny) kitchen, the lounge, and terrace are closed from 11 pm to 8 am while reception is closed. This place leaves a lot to be desired.
