“Clean and cheerful, well-located. Sadly, a bad vibe at check-in.”

“Affordable and centric accommodation”
Humble accommodation in San José, perfect location to visit Cabo de Gata. We visited during the end of June, around San Juan, and it was chill and easy to park in the streets nearby. The hostel is right on a street with restaurants and supermarkets.

“Loved it, will go again”
We needed somewhere basic and near the beach. The room was really great especially for the price. Aircon, fridge, wardrobe, tv and bathroom. It’s also directly opposite Andrea cafe that does great breakfast so you can beat the queue.
