aHostal without a sign on the street

The hostal does not have a clear sing outside the building, as a result guess pass by many times looking for the hostal as they can only see a bar owns by the hostal. The hostal is licate in the second floor and there are not sign. This is a marketing failure for business.

Basic beds and questionable showers

I stayed for one night, and it got the job done. I would never shower because there's no privacy,y and the bathroom didn't look the cleanest. I don't mind noise, but be aware that there's a restaurant/bar open until midnight below the hostel and the street is pretty loud. My room was on the street, so might be different for the back.

Excellent location, excellent staff. Your shower rooms were not discreet when having a shower and it felt intrusive and uncomfortable when having a shower.

Great location

Location was great and staff was very friendly and welcoming. But the building was in bad condition (shower drains were leaking, one of the toilets out of use cause of a leak, overall space was small and walls were thin so you could easily hear noise).

Passing through Alicante

The vibe is great, though it sometimes felt overtaken by the staff. The mattress was too thin for me, I could feel the bedframe through it. It was excellent value for money and the lady at reception gave very good advice for coffee and getting good views!

Excellent - Highly Recommended

This is a warm and friendly place to stay. Although a hostel, facilities were clean and presentable, and staff were available 24 hours a day to deal with any queries. The dorms themselves are locked so only accessible to those who have a bed in that particular room. The dorms also have good sized lockers for valuables. The hostel is located within walking distance of the castle, old town (including the bars) and the beach, yet in a quiet street. Met lots of people from all over the world. As a solo traveller, it was more like being on holiday with a group of friends!

Satisfactory.

4 berth dorm. for on night so not able to comment to much except to say the wash area would have benefited from closer attention to tidying as discarded towels did nothing for the decor.
