The reception guy was super helpful and welcoming. Location was amazing. We can't forget that it is a Hostel. However, the beds made a lot of noise and everytime someone moved, it would wake up the other guests

Helpful front desk staff with great recommendations. Easy to find from the #21 bus from the train station. Clean showers. Place is quiet but street noise is loud very early. Good for a one night stay, longer if you’re younger. NO LIFT if that is a factor.

The check-in was fast and the person at the counter was nice. The hostel is right in the middle of everything you want to see in Sevilla, extremely convenient! There are guests who cleaned? I don’t know! But they were always keeping the common areas clean. The building is a little run down but is because is kind of historical, I guess. The only thing I didn’t like was that the bathroom was on the second floor, other than that, I loved this place.

Disliked: Cleanliness
It is very near the cathedral and alcazar. People are around walking everywhere! Noisy street. Staff do not know to speak English, no smiles, not friendly except one guy he was nice and let me in at 6AM. Checkin time super late at 2pm??? It is standard that hostels and hotels have a 11 AM check in time. Weird but it was alrite!!

Perfect basic hostel in an ideal area of the city in order to explore by foot. Top review for cleanliness and location! I didnt use the kitchen but it looked well equipped. The roof terrace is a bonus too. Very colourful and cheerful decor! Not a socialable hostel, more a budget place to stay. Advice for light sleepers - Do not book the 6-bed female only dorm. The heat of Seville means you NEED the windows open probably 8 months of the year - This room is lovely but on street level, so in the morning the clippy cloppy horses and city buzz might wake you up early! If you are a good sleeper this room adds a touch of novelty ambience to your drifting off/dreams. :P Greaty value for the price, would stay again.

Decent location, but no help from reception wrt. a person sleeping in my bed. When I asked which bed was theirs, another person was in that one. Receptionist ghosted me and did not answer. Also promises benefits from hotels that you will not receive. Overall bad vibes, would recommend you avoid. Cleanliness and beds are average for a hostel.

Très bien situé mais...

J'etais là pour un séjour à Séville. Bien que je sois plutôt quelqu'un de tolérante, il faut bien reconnaître que 3 ou 4 des personnes qui étaient présentes étaient des jeunes assez bruyantes, portant peu d'intérêt au fait que d'autres à côté d'elles dorment, ce qui m'a valu trois mauvaises nuit. Sinon, le personnel était sympathique, le logement climatisé très bien situé (attention au bruit des calèches tard la nuit). La literie laisse un peu à désirer mais c'est suffisant pour quelques jours.
