Comments: Les chambres donnant sur le boulevard sont un peu bruyante, mais après une journée de découverte à travers les petites rues de Séville, la fatugue est là et on entend plus le bruit de la rue ! De plus le personnel est charmant et acceuillant. Je recommande cet Hostal !

Comments: I loved this hostel! The rooms are very clean and the staff was very kind. I was there when the weather got a little cooler and they brought us heavier blankets to sleep with. We were always accessed to new linens and the cleaned the room every day. The staff does not speak English but were still very friendly. Absolutely loved this hostel, definitely would stay here again! Great price, great location, felt safe the entire time. Personal bathroom was a great plus!

Comments: On arrival we were put in a double room which was at the front of the building at the top. It was a nice room but I am a very light sleeper and the traffic noise (on the main road) was disturbing. The staff moved us immediately when asked to a quieter room, although smaller. The situation was perfect for us and I would stay there again. It helps if you speak Spanish as reception is not bi-lingual. Very clean and helpful staff.

Comments: We were given a room right beside recpetion. It was cramped and all night long we could hear the doorbell ringing for people coming in and going out plus every conversation that was had in the reception area. We found somewhere much better the next morning.

Comments: Esperienza terribile!!! Io e i miei 7 compagni di viaggio aiamo arrivati il giorno della prenotazione e l'ostello era completo!!! Lo staff aveva perso la nostra prenotazione. Invece di scusarsi e trovarci una sistemazione altrettanto valida ha cercato di sistemarci in una struttura in costruzione, senza finestre e con gli operai al lavoro. Dopo ore di discussioni abbiamo dovuto trovarci un altro ostello e lo staff si è tenuto i soldi della nostra prenotazione. Mai più...

Comments: the style of the hostel is a traditional andalusian, all the sightseeings are closed of the hostel and you can go everywhere on foot. The enviroment is very friendly and the hostel is very clean , the staff was very polite and helpful.

Comments: Small & smoking smell. Next day, we had to change room, 'cuz room will be given to another group travellers. Very annoyed. Was most expensive but worst in quality compared with all others we stayed in Spain. Booked rate was 46. But later they mailed us correct rate is 75 (Feria season). We had to accept as it was close to travel date. No time to search for others. Worst of the worst.

Comments: Not too close to main area (Barrio Santa Cruz, la Cathedral). Not too nice, but what can you expect for that price. However, it is clean, safe, and the staff is nice. Nothing spectacular, nothing terrible. Good if you are on a budget.

Comments: las habitaciones como en la pagina, pequeñas y todas con baño pequeño, pero para ir a dormir y pegarnos una ducha suficiente, por una estrella y este precio esta genial¡¡ La situacion a 10 minutos del centro andando y de la estacion de santa justa a 15 con maletas andando. Recepcion 24 horas y las habitacione y el hostal muy limpio. Con aire caliente y frio y television. Muy recomendable para jovenes en plan una finde de fiesta en sevilla.

Comments: Central location and very clean. But rooms are tiny, and mine was changed after I'd been there a few hours, with no reason given. Also on main road and very noisy, day and night.

Comments: This would be a great place to bring a one night stand or even a prostitute, but if you are expecting a diamond in the rough look elsewhere. Asked for double bed, received 3-person room. Manager was condescending and rude. Very firm beds. Room seemed unfinished. Basically, just say no to Hostal Florida.

Comments: Don´t stay here unless there is nowhere else to stay. The staff were really difficult to communicate with and they charged us more than it said it would cost on the hostel world website. The actual room was ok although very small and not worth the money. Stay somewhere else.

Comments: No One speaks English, so polish up on your Spanish or take along a dictionary. The reservation system was alittle confusing. Our deposit, which we paid online with Hostel World did not show up at the hostel and we had to pay the whole room charge (including the deposit). Is there some way we can get that back? The wonderful ladies at the hostel were friendly but did not understand our dilemma.
