“Very Charming; A Little Pricy for Budget Travelers”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 January 2012

Reduced rate in the low season, but no breakfasts available then. Charming rooms, lobby, and location, but internet only in lobby. Nice hosts though that speak English. We'd stay again if we had more money (budget travelers) as this seems to be the nicest place around in Tarifa.

“Good hostal in great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 November 2011

Good hostal in the very heart of the old town, thus very close to bars, restaurants (nightlife in general) and to the port.
As it has already been pointed out, no air conditioning but fans and (natural) wind are enough to cool the room down for the night.
On the high side pricewise but in line with pretty much all hostales in Tarifa, including worse ones. I would recommend and will surely be back.

“Great Location, Decent Rooms”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011

I picked this hostel out of a list, based on my ignorance. When I arrived in Tarifa, I took a cab to the hostel. However, the cab was only able to get me to the general area (as this hostel is in an older part of the city that only has a walking path next to it).

This place reminded me of what I envisioned Europe to be like -- small, cobble-stoned-lined roads, stucco walls, small bathroom, twin-sized bed. I stayed two nights there. The breakfast was good. The internet was only existent on the first floor. The staff was really nice.

“Small hotel in good location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 September 2011

Stayed in this small hotel for a night. It doesn’t have aircon but that wasn’t much of a problem as the room didn’t get overly hot, and the temperatures was around 40C during the day.

Location is down a cobble street, near bars and restaurants, so if a light sleeper can be slightly noisy although didn’t cause us a problem.

Rooms are quite small, and have an Arabian type feel to them, but are clean and comfortable for a night. Bathroom is again small but was clean enough.

The hotel has tables in the street where you can have a drink before heading out for the evening.

There isn’t any car parking, so if you are travelling by car, it can take some time to find a parking spot. Tip is if you find somewhere park up then find the hotel, as you will be lucky to get anywhere close to the hotel although Tarifa is small so you won’t have far to walk.

Tarifa is quite a small place, with cobbled streets and is quite quaint and bohemian, however one day/night was enough to explore and then move on.

Would recommend the hotel as a short stay.
