+

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small scale, limited privacy — The hostel operates from a single floor (Piso 2), and the budget single is minimal – no private bathroom or AC in that room.
  • Restricted check-in window — Check-in is only between 15:00 and 20:00, which could be inconvenient if you arrive later in the evening.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, you'll need to look elsewhere – the property does not accept them.
  • Street-level noise potential — Located on the second floor above Carrera 10, some rooms may pick up street noise, especially the budget single.
