Emily runs a nice tidy hostel with the team.
Arrived late and tired, Jesus was very helpful and got me settled right away. The next day or so I was lucky to get a lower bunk which was much easier. Everything else was walking distance, bars,cafes and restaurants. Buses too.

We are very sorry that you have had a bad experiance at our hostel. We have rules telling people to be quiet after 11pm and we have not been told by any other customer and have no knowledge of any parties happening after this time. Also the size of the room has been specified in the details when you book.

Above average budget hostel for South Tenerife.
Fresh hostel in appropriate location for South Tenerife. Affordable price (just launching price or would this be permanent?). Member of HI. The stay started OK as some of the staff seemed real local, and then got even better -by chance- as the international staff happened to be more knowledgeable about travelers (Hungarian and French, special thanks to Fred who'd been there on time) than the usual outside staff found in Tenerife. In these conditions, i would recommend the hostel as definitely better than average for SOUTH Tenerife.

ho passato 4 notti presso questa struttura e mi sono trovata molto bene, il personale è molto disponibile e c'è un bel clima amichevole e accogliente, ho dormito in una stanza singola, piccola, ma confortevole e c'era tutto l'essenziale.....

Overall ,A real budget bed in south Tenerife 👍
Nice & disciplined staff ,clean beds ,friendly atmosphere, you will find new friends from all over the world, close to supermarkets & restaurants, good bus connection, lovely little beach near the hostel which I enjoyed every day 🌞🌴 But I think , the 12mixed dorm with 2 toilets that are located directly into the room is not particularly suitable for female guests :)

scappate..
dimenticate la vostra anima o voi che entrate..dopo appena 10minuti vi accorgerete dell'errore che avete commesso.:il letto e da galera una macchina dà tortura, le finestre aperte a gennaio, responsabili o non al altezza o addirittura ostili, orari di uso dei servizi assurdi, e poi...non parlate agli altri ospiti, non tutti vogliono un party...scappate

Like backpacker, capacity about 16 beds in 3 rooms (one double, one 6bed dorm and one 8bed dorm). Shared bathrooms, equipped kitchen and shared fridge, lockers available. Rather little space in the bedrooms but friendly environment, stuff speaks several languages and is very helpful. Smoking permitted outdoor, most guests and stuff smoked during my stay but wasn't disturbing. Large variety of nationalities and ages of guests, inspirational "community". Closest beach is in Las Galletas but is small and in the town. Grocery store and services are about 500m far.

Tämä hostelli on hyvä valinta bilekansalaiselle, joka ei niinkään kaipaa omaa rauhaa. Täällä tapaat taatusti uusia ystäviä. Hostellin sisäpiha on paikan sykkivä sydän, jossa kaikki hostellin asukkaat kohtaavat ja viettävät aikaa. Hostellin seinät ovat maalattu ihanasti metsän henkien peittoon. Bussille kävelee n.10min ja niillä pääsee helposti seikkailemaan ympäri saarta.

Cool place :)
Very friendly stuff, really nice atmosphere in the hostel, big open common space where you can eat, cook and rest, the bedrooms are quite small, but it is not an issue as the living room is big as well as the garden. The only one small minus are the bathrooms they are not enough sometimes in busy hours and you need to wait a bit sometimes to finally use them. The breakfast is very basic, but enough. In total I'm very glad I stayed there. :)

"Basic" experience.
Receptionist was friendly. Bed in the private double Room was good. only one tiny kid's chair in the room. Bath and toilet a little shabby. common fridge in kitchen quite disgusting. we were eaten alive by moskitos at night (no moskito net at window). ( or choose to suffocate while sleeping with closed window).
