The rooms were noisy. There were two bright orange lights that stayed on the whole night. Pillow was a thin cushion. We moved hostels for the second night.

So sorry you did not enjoy your stay. It is unfortunate at times that some other guests may not respect quiet hours but if you have traveled a bit, you will find that it is very common not only in hostels but hotels as well. We take great pride for what we do here at the hostel to create a backpackers atmoshere and cleanliness is also of upmost importance to us. Not many other hostels have staff that maintain cleaning 24 hours a day as we do.

Excellent place to meet people and socialise, had an awesome night on the pub crawl and would definitely recommend it. The staff are very helpful and social, they don't really feel like staff at all! Rooms were clean, as were the bathrooms and kitchen.

Absolutely loved this hostel. This was one of the best hostels I stayed at in Europe. The staff is very friendly and since they're not a huge hostel, you know when new people come in and everyone that stays there are your automatic friends. The very first night my friend and I were there, we went to the beach with our hostel-mates and later had a BBQ out on the balcony/patio. They also have a great game room with ping pong and wifi. Overall, Hostel X is a very chill atmosphere, stay there!

to describe the vacation in one word, I just need: AWESOME more detailed: the staff is awesome, the owners are awesome, the hostel is awesome :-) the atmosphere was just brilliant. We met only nice people in the hostel and those who already knew the city, took us to the best party places. And the staff joined us also for party. The x hostel in alicante is just recommandable!

WELL I HAD A DOUBLE ROOM FOR A VERY CHEAP PRICE BUT IN THE ROOM THERE WAS JUST A MATTRESS.MAYBE THEY CAN LET PAY FOR MORE EUROS AND FURNISH A LITTLE BIT THE ROOM . THEN THE ROOM WAS BY THE KITCHEN ,VERY NOISE AT THE TIME OF BREAKFAST WITHOUT RESPECT FOR PEOPLE THAT WERE BY THE NEXT DOOR THEY CAN DO BETTER

The room is furnished with mirror, table, dresser with drawers, closet with hangers, lamp, and bed. We do our best to keep other guests to respect quite hours but as you experienced, it can be difficult in a social hostel. I only wish you could have made a better effort to get to know us and participate with others.
