I stayed in the hostel for three months because it was so friendly atmosphere, make good friends and almost everyone looks like a family at the end. Was my longest stay in a hostel because of of my work place is so suiting for me to be in El Médano. Was my 2nd stay here but I so love the vibes of the hostel. I can suggest for anyone who finding a hostel like. It was more than a stay, conducive environment too, and attraction area it is .

It's a good hostel in the middle of Medano. The rooms where quite tidy and toilets and showers were clean. I give one star less because I fell, that it didnt have the most active hostel community compared to other hostels I've been to on Tenerife and other destinations.

You should check the bad reviews. Worst hostel ever. I was there when there were not many guests. Staffs were enjoying only by themselves, laying down on the couch, even the eldest one heading bare foot to me with laying on the couch. So many bed bugs. All the guests at that time looked unhappy, and avoided staying in the hostel till sleeping. If there are many guests there in summer, could be fun because of other guests, but not because of this hostel. And bed bugs are there anyway.

Definitely don’t recommend. It is hot in there 12 Bed rooms without air conditioning and only fans running the entire nights. Beds squeak and mattresses are super worn down. Cant complain about the staff or the people, super friendly, but its not worth the bad sleep youre gonna get there.
-
The bedroom was really hot and really noisy. Reception is good and location also. Practical if you need to be close to the airport but I wouldn’t recommend to stay longer then one or two nights
