What truly stands out in this place is the exceptional cleanliness. I genuinely appreciated the owners’ thoughtful approach to maintaining such high standards—especially important when sharing space with many other guests. Hands down, well done. The facilities are well-maintained overall. I really liked the common area, and there's even a small washing space for hand-washing delicates, which is a nice touch. I also never even once had to queue for the bathroom facilities. Believe me when I say it counts when in Alicante counting 37°C+ degrees. The room itself was comfortable, with cozy beds and decently sized cupboards. I especially appreciated the addition of hooks to hang towels or other items—such a simple yet practical detail. The staff were also very kind and helpful. On the day of checkout, I had to run some errands and ended up in a situation where I couldn’t return before the designated time. I had already freed up the bed and returned the key, but still had some belongings left behind. The owners were very understanding and allowed me to access the property again without making a fuss. I really appreciated that flexibility. The hostel is also in a great location—you’ll find everything you need within a 5–10 minute walk.

All hostels in Alicante

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Friendly staff, great pizza and beer night to get people mixing. Really great atmosphere, friendly staff, lovely and clean areas. The garden was great place to meet people. Key fob for lockers and doors is brilliant idea. Hire of towels cheap. Showers really good compared to some hostels. Really love that you put events on for people . Such a wonderful idea especially for those a bit nervous. I am grateful for a fab stay.

    Perfect hostel for backpackers/those travelling on a budget. Very clean, the beds were comfortable and we got a little private toilet with the quadruple room alongside the shared bathroom too. The location is also very good, right next to the plaza de ayuntamiento and the beach.

    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 :)
