Stepping into Puerta Vieja, one immediately feels the vibrant energy; it's a true hub for backpackers. The ample common areas, including a terrace with a bar and hammocks, invite easy conversation and connection. Free breakfast and dinner, along with themed activity nights and complimentary cocktails on certain evenings, foster a strong sense of community and fun. There's even a cinema room and table tennis for relaxed evenings.

This charming hostel provides a balanced experience, offering a peaceful retreat while remaining close to the city's lively areas. I found the garden and shared lounge ideal for relaxing and connecting with others. The communal dinners and a general party-friendly atmosphere make it easy to meet people, yet there are quiet spaces for downtime. The staff are notably friendly and helpful, and a good breakfast is included.
