Hostel itself was really nice, cute decor with great kitchen and laundry amenities. Quick walk to the beach and bus station. However, the area around the hostel was not the nicest and it was a long walk to the historic centre to find nice places to hang out. There was also a problem with cockroaches in the room that made it very difficult to get a good nights sleep. Steer clear of the ground floor rooms!

Fantastic!

Loved it! Great terrace area with kitchen. Second kitchen below. Room with a shower in it was perfect. Toilet opposite. Very clean. Appreciated the fan in the room. Comfortable bed. Perfect location. Also you can rent sporting equipment and things for the beach. So impressed!

Fantastic location right in the heart of Las Palmas. The receptionist who greeted us was super nice and helpful. Our room was very comfortable, with a large bed and nice decorative touches. The roof top patio is nice and has a kitchen for guest use. Our one complaint was the difficulty in finding parking, but the receptionist helped, providing us with their one parking spot for 9 Euro per night. We were very grateful that the one spot was available. This was our final night on the island, and we had a great and restful stay before our flights the next morning. Thank you!

Clean rooms and very convenient city center but no parking and there is a club directly underneath the hotel so if you’re looking for a good nights rest, this is not the place to stay literally music until 5 AM in the morning but so loud that I couldn’t even hear my TV

Nøkkel fungerer ikke i inngangsdør. Mer eller mindre null sol på takterrassen. På takterrassen var det 2 solsenger som ikke hadde ryggstøtte.jeg hadde booket «Suite», her fikk jeg boblebad som var i ustand, ingen vinduer, nettet fungerte ikke. Ble vekket kl 04.00 av noen som banker på naborommet (høyt) i nesten en halv time. Ikke anbefalt fra meg.

Ruidoso. Habitación sucia

Mi habitación estaba sucia. Se escucha cada ruido del pasillo y de la puerta de entrada, que es un no parar. Lo de dejar la maleta es un problema. La terraza es genial.

Opción económica

La habitación no era tan bonita como en las fotos, pero la cama es muy muy cómoda. El personal muy amable. El agua caliente tarda en salir, pero paciencia, llega. Aunque se no está muy bien insonorizada, pudimos descansar bien, los huéspedes que había respetaron el horario de descanso. La calle en la que se encuentra, nos dijeron que tiene mala fama, pero nosotros nos sentimos seguros en todo momento.

Hyvä kokemus!!

Kaikki sujui erinomaisesti. Erittäin mukava henkilökunta. Olisin kaivannut selkeyttä sisäänkirjautumiselle kun en tiennyt minne pitää mennä ja kun kukaan ei avannut ovea vaikka ovikelloa soitin. Äänieristys kans olisi tärkeä!

Plus 1 - schöne, saubere und ausreichend große Zimmer, sehr bequemes Bett und originelle Einrichtung. Plus 2 - Lage im Zentrum und nahe zur Uferpromenade, jede Menge Restaurants und Lokale rundherum Minus 1 - Unterkunft liegt in der Fußgängerzone, direkte Zufahrt per Taxi schwer möglich. Nix für Leute mit schwerem Gepäck. Minus 2 - die Badewanne (sogar Whirlpool) ist nur als Dusche benutzbar, weil der Überlauf angeblich nicht angeschlossen ist und der Betreiber offenbar nicht mal vor hat, das zu reparieren.
