Insider Tip

Onefam Centro

Another branch of the popular Hostel One chain, Hostel One Centro does not disappoint. This hostel offers guests daily activities including a free family style dinner, pub crawls, walking tours, and all kinds of organized activities. The hostel itself is a bit dated, but the staff and friendly and fun and the atmosphere can't be beat.

The hostel has a kitchen and several common areas. It also has great wi-fi that is strong throughout the building and public computers that guests can use.

The Facilities

Dorms

The dorm rooms here are small and simple, but reliable. There are bunk beds and the lower bunk has a privacy curtain. The mattresses aren't the most comfortable, the rooms themselves are nice.

The dorms range in size from two beds to ten beds. There is only one ten-bed dorm and it's on the main floor. There are also female only rooms as well.

Private Rooms

The private rooms are nice and well furnished with a full sized bed. It's a great option for couples who want the social atmosphere of a hostel but still want their own personal space.

Bathrooms

All of the dorms have private bathrooms so you can avoid the walk down the hall to shower every morning. They can get crowded during the peak morning hours so be prepared for a bit of a wait. They're kept relatively clean for a shared bathroom and the facilities are good.

Common Areas

This is a social hostel, so you'll find plenty of people hanging out in the common areas, particularly during the group dinners. There's also a shared kitchen if you want to prepare your own meals. If you want to just chill and relax on a sofa there's space for that as well. This is a popular hostel, so there are often guests around, but you might find things a bit quieter during the low season.
