Dirty “hotel”
This place can hardly be called a hotel, it’s more of a hostel with individual rooms but shared bathrooms. The room was quite dirty with dust and hair on the floor. The condition of the bathrooms was similar (see photos).

I told the Hostal I would arrive late, I came to the Hostal at 23:05 and waited until 23:55 ringing the bell, no-one replied and I had to book another Hostal for the night. A person did text me when I walked out of the airplane but the message dissepared so I could not read it, my instruction I got from the Hostal was to take a taxi to the property and ring the bell, I did that and no one responded. It was very stressful and not acceptable :(( The other person should have checked in with me regularly as he knew I was arriving, he only called after I booked my other room!

Friendly staff and clean rooms
A great stay in at a central location. Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially Emilio who suggested some great excursions and booked me a taxi to the airport for the day I was leaving. My room was spacious, clean, cool and comfortable. I felt at home. Thank you team I will definitely be back.

For a short stay
Very well located, many nice restaurants and shops around. The only improvement could be the equipment in the kitchen. There is a kettle but no coffee or teabags or even a mug really, which makes it hard to use.

Solo touring in spain
Checked in early ( before 4pm) and the guy running the place was v helpful and accommodating. Place v clean . Bed very comfortable although a blanket would have been appreciated ( just a sheet- guess it's been too hot up till now). The walls are a bit thin, snoring from room next to.mine was v loud and kept me awake! Ear plugs good idea. Clean kitchen facilities, clean bathrooms and a lovely hot shower. A good location in the old town. 10.mins walk to the beach and close to railway station. Overall it's a perfectly adequate place as a base to see the town and it feels like a safe area for a single female.

Great value for price
This is not an easy place to find, especially at night, as very little signage. I had a lovely big room although no window to a view but good air con, clean shower rooms (communal), kitchen with vending machine. Complimentary water in rooms which was nice but paid extra for check in after 8pm. Walls are thin so a bit noisy but comfortable, very central and good value for 1-2 nights in the city.

Ok stay, good location, but just two bathrooms for 7 bedrooms. One bathroom had a door that was very hard to close and the other one had very very low water pressure in the basin.

Hidden Gem
Fabulous room and clean, modern shared bathrooms & kitchen. The entrance is not so obvious though... there is only a smaller label on the buzzer outside a plain brown door on the street. So look above the door ways to spot no 15! But once inside you will be pleasantly surprised :)

Franchement non
Le très bon emplacement et le nettoyage des parties communes quotidien sont les seuls points positifs. L'établissement est sinon très mal isolé, on entend les voisins de chambres et d'immeuble parler, marcher etc. Manque de sécurité, les fenêtres ne ferment pas hors l'établissement se trouve au premier étage! La clim est vieille comme le monde, fait un bruit violent et sens la poussière comme tout l'établissement. + la cuisine commune est rudimentaire (pas de frigo, de plaque de cuisson etc)

Deilig med aircondition på rommet. Var helt greit rom. Litt kjedelig å dele bad og dusj med andre men var lite trafikk så det gikk bra. Hyggelig betjening fra 4 til 8 på kvelden. Kort gåtur til shopping og stranda.

Duperie
Nous sommes arrivés au début du pont de Toussaint. Aussitôt le séjour encaissé, et les formalités accomplies, la jeune hôtesse qui parlait que espagnol est partie. Aussi lorsque nous avons dû raccourcir notre séjour et besoin de renseignements pour expliquer la raison. nous avons eu que un répondeur, et personne ni pour nous rappeler et encore moins pour répondre à nos différents appels. Avec la taxe séjour la nuit nous ait revenu à 50€ ,sans le petit déjeuner et le parking payant de la ville ! à ce tarif on a de meilleures prestations sur la ville d alicante. La propreté était correcte. Mais les chambres ne sont pas insonorisées. On entend le pet du voisin !!
