No locks, no lockers, no kitchen, one toilet and shower per gender for entire hostel. No outside food even allowed on the premises as they have their own cafe service (which i did not try). The location is ideal right outside casemate's square, but for the price of £18 for 6 bed dorm it's a huge rip-off. They do have... More

Unfortunatly the hostel is the only hostel in Gibraltar, it's pretty expensive but still the cheapes accommodations in Gibraltar. Pretty basic, but not very clean, the staff there are not very nice (only the manneger is nice). If you plan going to Gibraltar I would recommend you to try to find a better place in the other side of the... More

Pros: cheap breakfast, friendly staff, good showers. Cons: Noisy, no security, only one bathroom for each gender This is the only hostel in Gibraltar, so you don´t have much choice. The staff is helpful, its centrally located (everything in Gibraltar is) and they have a good English breakfast. They don´t have any lockers so you have to hope your room... More

Well I stayed here for a Few days last year in July before heading off to Malaga, anyway what attracted me was the price and locality to the Spanish border town La Linea De La Conception which has got busier. I am at a loss how to describe this Hostel really however I will give it a go: The room... More

I stayed during the off season and had a terrible experience. I was in a private room off from the main building and did not have hot water in the sinks or showers. When I told the staff the next morning, I was blamed for not going over at 8am and telling them about the broken hot water heater. The... More

I stayed in this hostel for 8 nights. First of all, I must admit I do like luxurious holidays, so I don't normally stay in hostels. In fact, this was my first time. I was on little budget and had to consider either cancelling my entire hols or staying in a hostel, so that was how I ended up there.... More

I booked my reservation and received confirmation for December, but when I arrived no one was there! There was a note saying they would be back in 30 minutes and a window was open, but I waited almost two hours until it was dark and no one arrived. I thought about climbing in the window and staying the night there... More

I, as a British citizen living in Spain, came down to Gibraltar the night before I had an interview scheduled for the next day at 9am. After coming back from backpacking around Asia I had little money and needed cheap accommodation. Therefore I booked into this establishment. Having been spoiled in Asia with plush rooms and affordable accommodation with a... More

Why? - Because it was possibly the worst place we have ever stayed on Earth. From the fresh dog excrement greeting our arrival to the surly staff; this place has it all. Our room was a semi underground cell where the only attempt to disguise the damp was a thin coat of clammy gloss paint. The sheets were mouldy, the... More
