Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a shared lounge, along with free WiFi throughout the property.

I think most people come here for the quietness & peace vibe of the hostel. Like many, most go to the beach all day and would sleep comfortably here at night. My third stay with them this year, and I've been consistently rate them at 10! Shout out to Alejandra who always goes beyond to help the guests! She's always cheerful and a great great host from day 1. She's one of the main reasons why my stay was so pleasant. If I were the owner, I'd give her a big pay raise. :)

    The hostel was cheap and close to the city centre. In the beginning we had a problem with our beds but we talked on the phone and via WhatsApp with a staff member and she was really helpful. It was very comfortable that the toilet was separated from the bathtub.

    Stayed in a private room. Great location, comfortable bed, clean, had everything that I needed for my short stay. Exceptional value for money! Perfect if you're looking for a simple base from which to explore Alicante and you are on a tight budget. Bus from Alicante airport stops a few minutes walk away from the hostel. Very convenient all around.

    The best hostel ever! I've never seen so comfortable and convenient bed space in the dormitory. You have a lot of space and privacy, your bed is actually like your own, little room. Very clean and big bathrooms, with soap, shampoo and hairdryer. The receptionist helped me to check in by myself because he was sick. I recommend this hostel to everyone! I love it :)
