I have used this hostel before, as I fly often to Alicante for family reasons, and have both times been very satisfied. Nice, helpful staff, good location not far from coach station and very close to train station as well as not far to the main restaurant and nightlife part of town. The room was perfect; clean, comfortable bed, good roomates, quiet area of town to get some rest, clean bathrooms. As mentioned I have repeated staying at this hostel and I will stay again in the future. That should be a good indicator that I am quite happy with everything.

Everything was fine

Hostel was very clean and welcoming, with a common room area downstairs which was always full of other friendly travelers as well as TV, couches and a kitchen/dining area. Use of CCTV made me feel safe. Location was well situated in the centre of Alicante with all attractions within a 30 minute walk and was close to numerous markets and restaurants. Air conditioning was also much appreciated as temperatures were always around 30 degrees. There is also plenty to do in Alicante, I stayed 5 days and had plenty to do, would 100% recommend.

The Hostel is very nice and calm. Comfy bed, open roof top to sit and relax, shower and toilet inside dorm, supermarket is infront of hostel. All tourist location are walkable. Vey understanding staff and big shared kitchen.

Only thing to keep in mind is you can not check in before 2pm and keep your luggage but after check out they provide luggage storage until 10pm. So be careful about your check in schedule.

Location is fantastic, close to the city centre, train station, bus stops and all the local amenities, restaurants, cafes, and so forth. Fast internet, the downstairs lounge remains open until 10-pm.

lounge shuts 10-pm in the night and you may face difficulties if you arrive later than 10-pm. it might change during tourist season.

Super comfortable beds and cozy room. all the facilities were clean. Very close to the train station. Walking distance to the center. Staff were friendly and very accommodating. You definitely get bang for your buck.

The location is slightly outside the center so depending on your preferences it could be a hassle. On checkout day the luggage storage to keep after our checkout was unlocked (but this is common in hostels so take that with a grain of salt).

By far the cheapest option when I stayed in Alicante. The staff was superfriendly and helpful and gave some valuable recommendations for nice places to visit (make sure to check out Playa San Juan)

The showers would need some ventilation to prevent them from mold. But all in all there wasn’t much to complain about given the price level and the fact that you stay in backpacker’s hostel

I had a bed in a 6-Bed-Dorm and I was allowed to put my bike inside on a terrace. The staff was very nice and the price was very low. Central location was very helpful.

There was a lot of mould in the shower room. For me it was ok, but I guess for many people it would not be. So I cannot recommend for anyone.

friendly easy to communicate with staff. Keycard access to Hostel, with plenty of space to relax in the communal area downstairs with good facilities. Dorms are ok with wireless key access to rooms. bunk beds do not have privacy curtain but that isnt a problem for some people, the showers and toilets are shared on each floor but kept clean, lift access to all floors.

bed sheets are very thin.

The people who work there are really nice, also I liked meeting new people in the rooms. The rooms were comfortable and and clean. Downstairs they have a little kitchen. A really good experience, I would go again.

You walk like 30 mins to the beach but that’s still ok. On the way there are many options to eat and go out.
