The best hostel I've stayed in. I felt very relaxed and the pool was such a nice facility; I got to meet people there and chill after a day walking around Palma. The pub crawl was good fun too.

Very clean, organised, comfy beds, quiet in little 'cubicles'. Intended to stay one night then go to a hotel, but no need as BOC a fraction of the price and still get a great sleep, so stayed 4 nights! Highly recommended.

Very good

The bed was very good and lots of space also great with the curtain was like a private room! Really good locker with built in lock. One thing the bedroom was hot in the night so bring a small fan in summer you will need for sure. Looking forward to returning next year!

Maybe something more to do, for example a snooker/pool table or table tennis would have been great. You will only find a tv in the lobby and that’s it for entertainment so far.

The hostel itself is fine. It’s super large. The area is close enough to the city center that you can walk. It’s clean enough. I like the pod style rooms albeit they can get very stuffy. I just felt the whole time that BOC was trying to find different ways to bill me. 7€ for a towel that you can’t even replace is insane. The one I got had stains on it. 7€ I should have just bought a towel and a Fanta on my own. When asking about laundry they helped me change my bill to coins. Then I got up there and realized I didn’t have soap and when I went down they’re like you buy that here for 0.50. In my head I was like why didn’t you say that to me when I was just here. And that’s how the whole stay there felt in a nutshell

Accueil très sympa. Seul problème au niveau des chambres, la lumière s’allume automatiquement dès que quelqu’un rentre, durant toute la nuit des gens rentrent et se lavent les dents il est impossible de dormir correctement.

Muitos problemas a serem resolvidos

A estrutura do hotel é ótima, mas há detalhes que podem ser melhorados. Fiquei na última cama do quarto (10) e a saída do ar condomínio era apenas na altura da cama 1, o que fazia que se sentisse calor nas últimas camas. Da mesma forma, o sensor para a luz estava apenas no início do quarto, o que fazia que, se você estivesse mexendo em seu armário no fim do quarto, a luz se apagava constantemente e você precisava ir procurar o sensor no início do quarto. Outro ponto é que a janela dos quartos dá para uma área para fumantes, o que faz com que o qiartos e as cortinas fiquem com muito cheiro de cigarro, já que muitos hóspedes abriram as janelas dos quartos. Mas o pior foi a presença de muitas formigas no quarto, inclusive na cama. Reclamei sobre essa questão e informaram que providenciariam a limpeza, o que não ocorreu. Voltei para casa cheia de mordidas das formigas.

Excelente parece um clube, gostei muito, apenas na chegada q o recepcionista te obriga a se inscrever na hostelling world com uma taxa d E3,50 q só pode ser paga com cartão, disse q é Lei na Espanha, pessoas acima d 30 anos são obrigadas. Tirando isso, o hostel é excelente, tem ping pong, pebollin, bar na piscina do roof top, mercadona super perto, ônibus n4 para 6 iletes na av ao lado.

Ensam resa till Mallorca

Otroligt trevligt Hostel och ett fantastiskt poolområde som skapade väldigt god stämning och lätt att socialisera vid. Bra standard och trevliga rum, dörrarna hade gärna fått gå igen lite tystare. Kan till tider bli lite högljutt på kvällarna men det varierar också mycket med folket som bor där.
