The room we had here in the newer ancillary building was certainly above average for a hostel. It was a little more expensive but well worthwhile.
Excellent location, friendly staff, parking usually available near by.
Tarifa itself was well worth the visit, so good we stayed an extra day and not overwhelmed by tourism to spoil it's charm.

i booked for one night and stayed for two, we went on our day trip to tangiers from here, got back from trip at 8pm and walked straight into the hotel. Free, safe parking in the streets nearby, great bars in the narrow streets, churro's and chocolate for breakfast around the corner only 4 euros for 2 people, thursday night was flamenco night at the ALAMEDA bar. I will definately be going back to TARIFA

Don’t let the Hostel name deter you because this is a nice, clean option for anyone who wants to be near the ferry or walking distance to many of the shop and restaurants near the fort. We did not book ahead but we had the names of several of the Trip Advisor recommended hotels with us. We had no idea of where we should stay, park in relation to the ferry that we were taking the next morning. As it turned out, right in the square where we parked was a tourist information office and they told us this hotel was the closest to the terminal and was just two minutes away. We ended up taking our car to an overnight parking garage and walked back (5 minutes or less). We had a small room in the main building. It was very clean with twin beds, a night stand, desk and chair. It was very inexpensive and had wifi included. The man who was at the desk did not speak English or French but we managed between his poor English and our poor Spanish. The only drawback was the bathroom was very clean but smelled musty.

I stayed 2 nights, one in the old part of the hotel which has OK, the other in the new annexe, which was much better and nicer. Restaurant good, breakfast a little unimaginative. Perfect location next to the ferry terminal to Tarifa and the old castle.
