I love this place - i've stayed a few times now - staff are always lovely, guests so far have all been cool. The chill out area and kitchen are great, i love that they have a pool table too. If you smoke try the upstairs terrace rather than out the front - its barely used and tranquil. Aside from camping i wouldnt bother staying anywhere else in Tarifa!

Kann besser sein
An sich ganz gut. Schade, dass es keine Fliegengitter an den Fenster gibt. Mit nur 2 Kühlschränken ist einfach zu wenig Platz. Auch das das Wasser beim Duschen und an den Waschbecken nach kurzer Zeit von alleine ausgeht, ist einfach nervig. Schade, dass das Wasser zum Geschirrspülen nur kalt ist. Die Leute an der Rezeption sind sehr nett. Auch die Sauberkeit ist gut.

Buena relación calidad precio
El recepcionista se ocupó las dos veces que he estado, por ubicarme en la habitación en la que pudiera estar más cómoda, y eso es de agradecer. El albergue es bastante nuevo, las camas cómodas y está bastante bien aislado acústicamente. Volveré
