Escapada a Sevilla

Reservamos una habitación doble con baño privado. Nos gusta hospedarnos en hostels, para estar cerca del centro de las ciudades y otros beneficios: cocina, etc. Nos molestó mucho la falta de respeto de los horarios de descanso nocturno. Descontrol, ruidos, gritos, golpes de puerta, en horarios de descanso nocturno. A las 2.00, 3.00, 4.00 am

Great Hostel in Central Seville with Rooftop!

Amazing hostel, friendly staff and rooftop bar was awesome! The rooftop pool as advertised is more like a swim spa, very small so dont expect to do any laps! Dorm was clean, great air con and had a private ensuite! Pub crawl was good fun but the breakfast is very average for what you get...not the best value for money. Would stay again!

Fun hostel with lots of guests.

This is a fine hostel with an upstairs balcony to converse, swimmin the mini pool, and generally chill with your new friends. The pub crawl is a late night excursion which got mixed ratings from the petty crowd...finishes around 3am.

Good hostel, got little sleep due to other guests

Well organised hostel. Lots of good info given to me by staff. Good value for money breakfast. Got about 6 hours sleep over a two night period due to people coming and going through the night/early morning.
