Villa Saint Exupery Beach Hostel

Perfect location. Helpful, friendly staff. Reasonable overnight rates. Scrupulously clean. Spacious dorms. Pity though about the bunks. They're of the traditional 'metal frame' type. They sort of seemed out of sync with the rest of the hostel. No shelf, no bunk light no modesty curtain. There was a power point but mine didn't work. Nothing wrong Intrinsically with this style of bunk. I felt though that this hostel - great in other respects- might just want to think about upgrading them to the more modern 'pod' style Also, minor point, but I'm a toast lover, please put a toaster in the guest kitchen for those who self cater... It's not as if there's a shortage - there are three to use if you buy the 8eu breakfast buffet (which I did 'cause I crave toast!). All in all though, I'd happily stay again and am very happy to recommend it.

No toaster No bunk light No shelf by the bunk

It is a well-centered hostel 5 min away from sea. The rooms are very spacious and the stuff was friendly and helped me to store my luggage while I was waiting for the check-in

The kitchen is small given that it’s a big hostel. That wouldn’t be such a problem if it wasn’t dirty all the time… Such a small kitchen can keep up with the amount of people are staying. Also, you didn’t have inside any basic amenities like salt which is a bit irritating.

The location of hostel is just perfect, close to old town and public transport. It has a common space to chill and you can join some activities organized by staff. The dorm I stayed in had a bathroom in so it was very comfortable, also lockers. I think it provides you basic things for staying at a good value.

The common area tended to get pretty messy especially bathrooms downstairs

The girl on receptiin was amazing, we have a problem with heating, and she help us, in very short time. I really appreciate that. Also she gave as information about free tour,. I really recommend this place for stay, location is perfect, and tram from airport is 5min walk

Staff was really helpful with laundry and other fun stuff with check in. Bathrooms in rooms had fantastic lighting (ladies would be pleased). Was here during new year eve and the party was immaculate ! A great place to meet people for sure if you’re outgoing . There’s a big kitchen which was nice

So many people live here- like non tourists. Was difficult to use kitchen or microwave cause one person would be microwaving like 20 bowls of food - with one microwave. The breakfast isn’t worth it for 8 euros but to each is its own.

Great location! You are literally in the centre of the city, near the main square. The stuff is great and very helpful, and you get the prospect with a lot of information for travelling around. Great place for meeting new people, very friendly atmosphere, a lot of solo travellers or digital nomads who you can chat with while sitting in the main hall at breakfast or happy hour. Internet connection is pretty okay, even in the room (1st floor), I didn't expect that.

Maybe the breakfast could be better and more diverse for the price, or at least plates could be better (not made of paper). Rooms for 4 people have 6 beds (when I was in the room, at one time there were 5 girls). I don't mind that, it's cool for me to have more roommates, but perhaps someone would like to know that before coming. :)

Good value for the money. Receptionist were friendly and helpful, the common area is nice and they play cool music. Staff was also super nice and friendly. Also, gym is such a great addition to a hostel! They even allow using it and the showers after check out, a big plus.

They don't rent towels to shared rooms (only to private rooms). One is 7e! Gym was nice but the weight clips were too loose causing the weights to fall off the bar. It would be great if private bathrooms had some shelves, or a place to put your things on. I witnessed one receptionist being extremely unpleasant towards a girl I shared a room with..it made me feel bad and sorry for her.

Free luggage room 24hr, it's perfect! There is hairdryer at the bathroom.

Some beds doesn't access to the electricity plug!

There are flyers hanging all over the kitchen and eating area: "Your mom doesn't work here, wash your dishes yourself". I was shocked, that in 2022 I am going to see such a mysoginist flyer in one hostel. This hostel sends a clear message, that mothers are in charge to wash after the family members. And before saying:"It's just a joke"...NOT FUNNY. Just insulting and not ok at all.

Location is perfect. There are extra showers you Can use after check out. Lugage storage is very good. There is a free gym in basement. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Air con in room 302 is really noisy - I slept with ear plugs. Toilets at gym couldnt flush - happened several times. Staff is not always available at reception. Waste is not separated at all - everything goes into same bin. Happy hour is really noisy - but isolation when Living at 3rd floor is sufficient, but if living at second or first floor noise is disturbing. You have to pay for a towel (7 euro) - luckily I bought my own. Kitchen is not suited for several persons cooking at same time. You have to buy padlock it’s not provided to you.
