The location is perfect to go around the area. The room we had was with kitchen and had the necessary to cook if you want to. Bed was huge and comfortable! The person in charge was super nice and explained a bit what we can do in the town and in the national park. Also gave us some maps.

I expect like many others, my reason for stopping here was to look at the places where several spaghetti westerns were filmed, and the owner gave me a little map to help. Simply furnished room, clean and comfortable. Quiet. I had lunch and breakfast in the restaurant downstairs (only open in the evenings with pre-bookings, and there is nothing much else for miles around).

The price was very good for my stay. We slept very comfortably in their beds. There was a mini fridge, free WiFi and a TV. For the price, the quality of this hostal was great.

“Amazing location in the heart of cowboy country!”
Amazing location in the heart of cowboy country! We found this a very practical option for exploring the local area. The hotel itself is quite basic but more than adequate for our needs. We really enjoyed our stay.

“Great place to stay for a family and especially a spaghetti western aficionado.”
Nice breakfast with delicious juice, coffee and tostadas, well worth the price. Comfortable, very clean and cozy rooms with air conditioning and good views to the hills and cowboy figure on the roadside. Owners were very nice and helpful. The special feature was great information and some memorabilia about the Sergio Leone movie For a Few Dollars more. The owner gave us a map so we could take a little stroll around the village and get to see where the scenes were shot. The places are still easily recognizable. A real treat for anyone loving the Dollar Trilogy! You can also buy post cards, magnets and posters with stills from the movie. The restaurant wasn't open when we stayed but it was only fifteen minutes drive to San Jose.

Excellent location for visiting Cabo de Gata's natural park and reaching the main beaches and coastal villages in the area. Room was quiet, wide and clean; beds were large and comfortable; daily housekeeping service provided. Excellent value for money.

“Nice overnight stay in very clean & comfortable Hostel”
The location is good especially if you're a spaghetti western fan. Food was good in the evening...lovely tapas. We didn't stay for breakfast but there was a fair (Spanish) selection on the menu. Very good air conditioning in our room.

The gentleman on reception was so pleasant & helpful. We are touring on our bikes cycling Euro Velo 8, we were very tired & we were so pleased to find a hostal in such a rural village. The gentleman looked after our bikes for us.
