Comments: Although not the cleanest place, it had a really cool atmosphere. Not the best place to meet people, but if you're travelling in a group it is perfect. I would go back, but not before trying out a few alternatives. That being said...go to Tarifa!

Comments: looks and feels more like a small motel than a hostel, on the main road in tarifa so easy walking distance to everywhere (10 mins to city center), clean rooms but very small shower

Comments: Really close to the port. Great for a quick stay if are moving on to Morocco. Easy to find from the bus drop off point. It could have been a bit cleaner. It was also freezing in our room. For our purpose of moving on to Morocco it was fine.

Comments: We just stayed one night here on the way to Morocco and it was basic but good. there is a kitchen and fridge you can use and it is in the centre of town and very close to the ferry port, bus station and a big supermarket.

Comments: It was easy to meet people and not far from the center, but the staff was too strict and they closed the common room and kitchen area at 10 which could get annoying. Good price though, so i would go there if your on a tight budget.

Comments: clean hostel, rooms were ok! but the hostel felt a bit too narrow-minded, too many rules. i missed the typical laid back hostel athmosphere you normally find! and they dont let you store your luggage after checking out what really sucked...

Comments: Very nice place with an open kitchen with fridge, dishes and cooker. It's a pity it was not descried anywhere. The Sound-isolation is like zero, so i recommend earplugs. All together: comfortabel, clean close to everywhere, not expensive except Laundry service (€12). Much fun there

Comments: Was totally uinimpressed by the staff, who were blatantly rude and arrogant (the 3 I dealt with anyway). They appeared to make rules up as they go in the vein to make my stay more difficult. I would avoid staying here unless you're deperate for a place to lay your head.

Comments: This is a hostel but doesnt have any of the benefits of one.... it is very hard to meet people here. The location is very good, so ideal if you can´t get into the hostel you really want to be in (ie Melting Pot)

Comments: Rude staff, small kitchen, they turn the power of at 10pm so you cant cook anymore, they lock the common room at 10pm...gay, you can only use internet for 20 mins, and bathrooms smelt REALLY BAD!! OH AND...THERE IS NO WHERE TO STORE LUGGAGE! Meaning that you have to wait around all day with your luggage (check out is at 10.30) and yeh they really dont care...lame hostel!

Comments: everything is forbidden in this hostel - e.g. you are not allowed to go in the garden - thats odd as the hostel advertises with the garden; there are no lockers in the rooms and the staff does not offer any safe... they keep your passport as a deposit for the keys. staff just speaks english when they want to. kitchen is more than ugly - small and not enough cutlery... sanitary rooms are small, molded --> simply disgusting! avoid a stay in this hostel!!!

Comments: This place is a safe bet. Located on the main street of Tarifa in the midst of surf shops. it's simple, but not puritan. A lot of showers and clean big rooms. Just fulfills all your needs. A good choice, if you don't want to get surprised .

Comments: The staff at the reception desk was very unfriendly. This hostel was definitely the worst during our tour through Andalusia. Anyway Tarifa has a great beach.

Comments: The price is expensive for the services they offer. There is no common space, no kitchen and no terrace. Staff speaks just spanish. Also act in a rude way, in 2 days I saw them discussing twice with clients and shouting loud between them. Be carefull in the bathroom as the light has a timer that last about 2 minutes, so if you shower you will have to get out of the shower nude and wet every time just the timer to detect your movement for not shower in the dark.

Comments: Dejé una botella muy especial en el frigorífico que tiene muchas pegatinas de los lugares que he viajado. Lo teneis todavía? Si yo mando el dinero necesario a vosotros, sería possible mandarmelo a los estados unidos?
