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.

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.

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!!

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.

when i came to buzz in, no one answered and i was left standing outside in the blazing heat and could not contact the hostel. Another traveller ended up exiting which allowed me in, but if it had not been for them, I don’t know how long i would have been left standing outside.
