Reviews
I stayed here for three nights on 9-12 March 2026. The toilets, shower area and my bedroom (Buenos Aires) were generally clean. The kitchen sometimes looked messy as it was very busy during dinner time, but there were abundant cooking utensils available to use. The hostel is not within walking distance to the main beaches in the northern part of Las Palmas, but nearby bus stops provide direct bus routes to them, the airport and Maspalomas.
I had such an amazing time at this hostel! I was traveling as a solo female and felt so at home here. I was only planning to stay for 3 days and ended up being there for 10. The staff was amazing, management was so welcoming. Special shoutout to my girl happy who made feel like I had a friend instantly! The roof terrace has a great view, the three kitchens is a huge plus, and there are always fun events happening. I highly recommend staying here!
Lovely staff and great location for a relatively cheap cost, BUT! Bring good ear plugs, sleep mask, for the night and headphones for the day as it is LOUD! Noisy people from 5am - 12 midnight if lucky. The walls are paper thin so everything can be heard loudly even walking sounds loud not to mention people showering and coughing/clearing throat a lot! Additionally, the double ensuit room we stayed in had no door on the bathroom, so we had to leave when the other was using the toilet. It's a bit frustrating but tbh a door won't even help as walls are thin. Nevertheless a nice area and decent sleep for a heavy sleeper like myself.
I like this hostel very much. The staff is friendly and helpful, there are big kitchens and fridges, so everyone can have space, volunteers are cleaning several times a day and the terrace is amazing. The only thing that caused a bit of discomfort were the three floor bunk beds (first time I see them), so I had to be careful not to hit my head when waking up. Otherwise the quality of the accomodation is perfect for the price offered.
Best social atmosphere in the city! "5 stars! This place is a non-stop party in the best way. They host beer pong, karaoke, and trivia, so it’s incredibly easy to meet fellow travelers. The volleyball event was also a total blast. Great vibes, even better people. Don’t hesitate to book!" As a solo traveler, I was worried about meeting people, but this hostel made it so easy. Their nightly activities, like trivia and beer pong break the ice immediately. The volleyball event was a personal favorite—super inclusive and fun. The atmosphere is high-energy and welcoming. I’ll definitely be back!" Finally, Irene and Barbara are very hands on as managers and they do everything in their power to have a good harmoney and coexistence in the hostel.
