Nunca recomendaré este sitio por la mala experiencia que fue estar allí. Para empezar cuando vi la habitación se me cayó el alma a los pies, ¡que cutre! y mira que yo no soy exigente, y he estado en albergues que están muy bien, pero no es este el caso. Luego, no se puede estar en el albergue entre las 10'00 y las 17'00 pero si les preguntas porqué no te dan razón clara. Además, si vuelves mas tarde de las 12 d la noche no hay nadie responsable atendiendo el albergue, ni en recepción ni nada, está cerrado a cal y canto. Tienes que avisar si vuelves tarde para que te den una llave, pero cuando hice eso, la primera noche al volver a las 4:30 habían echado un candado para el que no nos dieron llave así que nos quedamos en la puta calle. Otro inconveniente importante es que está lejos del centro, se puede coger el autobús pero como en Valencia no hay autobuses desde las 22:30.Creo que es suficiente, estáis advertidos.

Hello backpackers, I'm just back from Valencia, and I stayed in a new (2 months old) youth hostel. It was bloody fantastic. It was clean, new, cheap (10 euro, breakfast included), and the people were very friendly. As we were sitting on the terrace late @ night, the owner gave us red wine, cheese, bacon, etc.... They were very helpfull and outstanding. One of them spoke french, the other one english, another one german, while most of the people only speak castellano (espanol) there. Only 1 - : the hostel is located in a street with dealers, drugs addicts and whores. But it didn't was dangerous at all, they were relaxed.. No one had problems with them. To go to the Hostel: from Estacion Nord (train), go to Plaza Ayunamient, then take Periodista Azarri street, then Byron de Carcer street, and at the end you have Plaza de Brujas. There at your left is located Balmes, the hostel-street. Btw, Valencia is fookin' fantastic, but you have to try to understand the spanish people, and to be good informed, and you'll have the time off your life!

At first, the hostel did not seem that bad. I had just gotten off a 4:30am bus ride to the city and spent an hour walking around the city looking for it. Alas, I had to wait until the bus lines started for the day to reach this place, which is considerably on the outskirts of town. The price listed in my Lonely Planet was off---way off. I could have saved money by just staying in a different hostel. Anyway, while the people were quite friendly who were there--we had a great party with the 100 peseta beer (50 cents)--the accomidations were rather archaic and I had about 20 misquito bites when I left. In addition, it was in late July and was bitterly hot. Lastly, I was expecting a beautiful beach on the mediterranean but was quite disappointed when I found murky water that compared to the likes of most So. Californian beaches. Anyway, my point is, don't go here unless you are extremely scraping the bottom of the hostel barrell. Stay in the city, and don't bother checking out the beach, it's not worth it.
