    Destacamos la limpieza impecable de las instalaciones, así como la comodidad de las camas y la amplitud de las habitaciones. También nos encantó la ubicación cercana al mar, ideal para disfrutar de la playa. Por último, el personal del hotel fue extremadamente amable y servicial en todo momento.

    Es difícil recordar algo negativo del hotel, pero nos pareció que había demasiada gente durante el desayuno, lo que resultaba incómodo para moverse.

    The location of this hostel was amazing! It was right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore all the attractions. We were able to walk to all the major sights and there were plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. Another great aspect was the price. It was really affordable, especially considering the central location. Plus, the staff were friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any questions or concerns.

    There were a few downsides to our stay. The beds were not the most comfortable and could use some improvement.

    The location of Bobby's Bunkhouse was absolutely perfect for attending gigs in the area. It was just a few minutes away, which made it incredibly convenient. The staff on hand were helpful, and the other guests staying at the hostel were friendly. The vending machines throughout the hostel were a nice touch, especially when I needed a late-night snack. The kitchen was available for guests to use, although a separate dining area would have been nice. And I was pleasantly surprised to find that the hostel had padlocks available for purchase in one of the vending machines. Despite a few drawbacks, I would definitely recommend staying at Bobby's Bunkhouse for its ideal location and friendly atmosphere. it was a great experience.

    The location of the hotel was very convenient, with everything within walking distance. The staff were friendly and accommodating. The showers were clean and modern.

    The room I stayed in had no window, resulting in poor ventilation. There was no breakfast offered, and there was limited communal space for guests to spend time or eat.
