Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great apartament. We had apart for 2 on the 5th floor. There is own giant balcony where we rested with sangria in the evenings. Great location. Good bed. Everything you need is in the room ( according hotel offer). It is good that you can checkin later ( hotel sends you instructions with passwords from hotel entrance door, and safe ( there will be envelop with your name and inside is key).

    Stayed in a private room. Great location, comfortable bed, clean, had everything that I needed for my short stay. Exceptional value for money! Perfect if you're looking for a simple base from which to explore Alicante and you are on a tight budget. Bus from Alicante airport stops a few minutes walk away from the hostel. Very convenient all around.

    Perfect hostel for backpackers/those travelling on a budget. Very clean, the beds were comfortable and we got a little private toilet with the quadruple room alongside the shared bathroom too. The location is also very good, right next to the plaza de ayuntamiento and the beach.

    The best hostel ever! I've never seen so comfortable and convenient bed space in the dormitory. You have a lot of space and privacy, your bed is actually like your own, little room. Very clean and big bathrooms, with soap, shampoo and hairdryer. The receptionist helped me to check in by myself because he was sick. I recommend this hostel to everyone! I love it :)
