The place was quite cool. The city center indeed. Everything is nearby. The staff was great also. A good place to stay for a few days.

the staff (except for the manager) were unhelpful, the floor of our dorm was filthy, the showers were small with no room to hang clothes etc. but why are you going to valencia anyway?

very good location to the main area. -- Definitely do the Tapas Tour they offer at the front desk if you can! The tour guide was amazing, and he really hooked us up with a free tapa and sangria/beer/etc at 4 different spanish tapas bars and then a huge dish of paella at the end all for only 8... more very good location to the main area. -- Definitely do the Tapas Tour they offer at the front desk if you can!

I think the only defect was that the common rooms (kitchen, living room) closed early and there was no place to stay and pass your time after 11. And a smoking area wouldn´t be a bad idea.

Staff were really nice and they spoke good english (it's hard to find someone from Spain who speaks as good as they). Price wasn't bad at all, location was perfect and it wasn't noisy place to stay, so I really slept well there. I would go there again if I'm going to Valencia!

The location is a bit far from the center. But overall, it was ok. So and so. Not bad if you're staying for just a few days.close

Really good Hostel. Clean & safe. It would be good to have breaky included, however kitchen is big enough to cater for your own. Free tea and coffee is a bonus. Can be a bit loud, but you must expect that in a party town.

This place is huge. This means that there are many large groups staying here, which makes it difficult for solo travellers to meet their fellows. Nonetheless, I did and I had a pretty good time. Just watch out for the guy who works on night shift, he is extremely grumpy!

Luckily, the staff understood and was able to switch us into another room. Would definitely recommend the Rest Nest!close

This place is soooo clean. Those ladies work day and night and the place is spotless. It is kind of a big place but we found it all the better for meeting lots of people. The pub crawl is a good way to meet people.

Some 4-bed rooms, as the one we were in, are too small; the rooms also miss any form of hanger. The security lock in the rooms are truly good.

This hostel was absolutely brilliant. Awesome location in the heart of Valencia, dorms were comfy and clean, and special mention needs to go to the staff. They go above and beyond to ensure you have a great stay, and are more than willing to help out with anything you may need. A+

I will never understand why hostels take f*cking school groups. This hostel was great but the snot nosed 14 year olds really brought it down keeping me up all night. Also someone stole my nectarines. Asshole(s).
