Great place. I think most of its interior was designed and made for it especially. It certainly has character and its name suits the atmosphere: caracol=snail. The worst I could say of it is that you will have to wait a long time to get your fill of the breakfast pancakes, so don't plan a busy morning expecting to have finished breakfast by 11 :)

We actually ended up staying in there sister hostel which is a bit more private after they offered it to us on arrival. With a rooftop on both buildings, free breakfast and a cheap dinner to join in on with the rest of the guests it creates a nice atmosphere and the staff are very friendly

The free breakfast is pancakes!! This was the highlight for me! Not boring old toast and cereal that you get at other hostels, so thumbs up for that. I really liked this hostel, it could be a little noisy at times, but that didn't really bother me, I had ear plugs! Great place, I highly recommend it :)

Casa Caracol is one of the best and most atmospheric hostel, I have ever stayed in. You meet interesting people in the nice common area and the rooms are clean and bright. I can highly recommend Casa Caracol for travellers who look for some relaxing days at the Atlantic coast.

felt very safe and comfortable, and it was a great location. very lively hostel; i'd recommend this place to those looking to socialize and meet new people. would not recommend to anyone looking for quiet and relaxation, anyone who expects to go to bed before 1 am, etc. very colorful place, great staff. the breakfasts were a nice touch. worth the visit, especially for the price.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Everyone in the hostel was nice, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful, the beds were comfy, and there was plenty of common area. Very close to the train station, which was convenient.

Great place to stay, full of very relaxed staff and guests, some minor inconveniences such as living area is always being used for some "big event" such as massage, yoga or using a big screen to watch movies.. Which sounds cool but annoying when you want to use the lounge, only to find 1 or 2 people are using the entire space for yoga and massage the whole night, also nobody mentioned or invited me to such things which would have been nice. This place could be better with newer bedding also.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the activities we try to provide for the guests. However, we also try to provide plenty of free space to hang out when these activities are in progress such as the roof terrace with hammocks or the kitchen or the living area beside it. We also try to announce the activities as often as possible and post signs to notify the guests, but we will try to be a bit more rigorous! And, just a few days ago we replaced all the old mattresses with brand new ones, so when you come back they are waiting for you!! Thank you for your review and we hope next time you come, your stay will be that much better!

Nice place to stay, good value for money. Only two bathrooms available, on summer it must be a rush.

Owner Comment (Show)
Surprisingly, we have 3 bathrooms on the bottom floor alone, 2 of which have showers. We also have a bathroom (with shower) on every floor and the terrace as well...

everything was ok,but i think breakfast is far too late at 10,also then it did not start at ten but almost half hour late.and part of your staff is friendly and helpful but not everyone working there was interested in making you feel being welcome,kind of cool and not very interested attitude.

The breakfast is actually available 24 hours a day, however 1 person voluntarily wakes up every morning and does pancakes for the guests. And though they try to be as punctual as possible, Cadiz is a very entertaining city at night and can cause a natural delay in the waking process;) We are truly sorry about the inconvenience this may have caused!
