Watch out from their policy

I've booked in this hostel for 3 nights and I left after the first one. The hostel looks fine, nice terrace and good location. I've decided to left after 1 night because i got 9 bites from bed bugs (when the receptionist took photos of my bites, the manager told her "it could be a spider or an other insect") They were full and they couldn't set me up in an other room. They changed the mattress (probably the manager realised that weren't spiders or others insects bites..better late than never), but i didn't feel to stay anyway (i was in a 6 beds room). I don't blame anyone for that. Unfortunately, it happens sometimes in hostels. I just do not agree with the hostel policy. I've asked them if it was possible to get the refund from my 2nights left, and they told me no refund in case of bed bugs, it's their policy. So, just to let any traveller know, there no refund in case of bed bugs. As I wrote it, i don't blame anyone. It happens in hostels sometimes. From my point of view, their policy is not fair. Plus they told me that weeks early of my arrival they had the same problem with an other guy. Think guys before to book this hostel.

Super friendly hostel near the sea

I really enjoyed staying at this hostel for the last 2 nights of my holiday in Gran Canaria. I would definitely recommend it to others and would have stayed there longer except that I had a flight booked back to the UK on the Monday! It is such a chilled friendly hostel with a lovely roof top terrace, seating area nd even a 2nd kitchen, also a sweet cat called Selma - not allowed in the bedrooms obviously. And it is such good value - of course you have to share a dorm with otheres, but the curtains around the beds, also night lights above each bunk mean that you can get privacy. There are useful large drawers under the beds/bunks where you can store your clothes etc, also lockers - take your own padlock or buy one from the hostel. The ground floor kitchen and dining area are great too, meals and other activities e.g. yoga are organised if you want to join in with them - the breakfast for 5 euros looked very tempting...the roof top terrace (2nd floor up, no lifts) has a grat view of the sea with waves rolling in...if surfing is your thing there could be no better place. Or you can just sit with a drink/breskfast and admire the view.

I highly recommend this hostel, it’s very close to the beach, a surf school and most importantly the atmosphere and people who work there are giving a very homey and cozy feeling from the moment I’ve entered the hostel. I’m happy to be back there soon 😊

Cozy hostel close to the beach

It was a nice experience to stay at the hostel. A lot of fellow solo traveling people in the 30'ties I had many good conversations. Location on point. Not too close to the very turistic area of the beach. Recommend the female form.
