the acoustics and noise level in the kitchen&lounge area overpowers the tv and any conversations you have in the lounge. the tv maybe should be in a separate room

Home is great, I stayed for almost three weeks whilst setting myself up working in Valencia. A great location, amazing kitchen, comfy beds and all the staff were so helpful and kind. I've stayed in loads of hostels and this is right up there!

Good hostel, with a very good lovation, just next to Bario del carmen. We where there watching Valencia-FCK, and we liked the city and we will stay there again, if we should go to the city again to watch football.

I had been robbed in the street on the way to the hostel and the staff were very helpful, at what was a difficult time - I really appreciated it. They helped me make the report to the Police and they loaned money so I could access the internet and buy some food. Without their support I would...

Overall, the Hostel was alright. It was located in the Historic Area of Valencia, which pretty much made everything in walking distance.

It was located in the Historic Area of Valencia, which pretty much made everything in walking distance. The free walking tour was good, and the tapas one ökay, I´ve had better and no watered down drinks. Hostel was very clean, and met a great bunk mate, but it´s always touch and go. The instructions to the hostel were very good until Plaza de Tossal. You have to look for Cafe Bolesteria to your right. (Some Cafe named something like that, and then Showroom). The hostel is right across the giant kitty litter sandbox. Can´t miss it. Next time I might try a different Home Hostel there. It needed a better common room to meet solo travellers.close

This was a really great place to stay. They had tons of computers and breakfast was all you can eat, they also had a kitchen with everything but an oven. Super-nice place to stay, definitely recommend it.

The pub crawl is well worth it... Good place to stay, don´t use the blankets though, think they may have bed bugs. Only used the blanket for one night and wound up getting bitten. I dislike those s···ty old woollen blankets anyway.

A hostel makes everything, and this hostel made Valencia my favorite city in Europe so far. I will grade the rest of my hostels to Home Backpackers. I would recomend this hostel to anyone... great area, clean and an amazing way to meet people.

Great Hostel... in an old church with about four floors. Big kitchen, common room, TV, lots of Fridges, clean. Wifi is fast, lots of activities as well. Only cons are smallish rooms, a little loud, and they lockdown the terrace/kitchen at 10 and 12.

We were only meant to stay in this hostel for one night but loved it so much that we decided to stay for 4 nights instead. Its very clean lots of fun and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooftop balcony and kitchen are big advantages. Highly recommended.

No complaints, except that they try to squeeze too many beds into some rooms, leaving very little room for personal space.

Home Backpackers was one of the best places I´ve stayed so far, spacious rooms with lockers, a well equipped clean kitchen and a lovely rooftop area to chill out on in the sun! Will definately stay there again if I go back to Valencia.

Lost our booking. Tried to charge us more than booking. Moved us into apartments with not enough beds. Eventually ended up in apartment where we all got to sleep in a seperate bed liked we paid for. Not very impressed! If you have the space to provide us with what we paid for why offer us...
