Staff were very accommodating and understanding. The beds are by far the best I've seen in my many hostel stays. they have plenty of storage, cozy, and the curtains are dark. The bathrooms were often a little gross: blood in skin, lacking toilet paper, showers not draining, etc. However, there are many showers and toilets to choose from so I always found one that was decent enough. In terms of security, anyone can just walk into the building and go to the common areas and access the room floors.

Staff is super friendly and volunteers are amazing. The issue I had is that there is people who are like 40+ staying there and the place just feels like a retirement home. Another issue is that there's a bunch of moroccans/algerians who don't speak a word of english or spanish and looked quite sketchy.. people overall staying there are kinda low iq people as well as they are looking for jobs there in valencia or either go there. Just a bunch of cheap tourists tryna get drunk.
