Very good

The hostel is very well located and has a good facilities, with a good kitchen and there is a nice rooftop where we can also stay.

Going up and down the bunkbed was not so good, a girl in my room fell down, the steps were narrow, far from each other and there wasn't enough places to hold on to.

10/10! My third time there!

The whole experience in the Hat is amazing. The staff is kind and really concerned about the guests; the rooms are really organized and clean; travelers tend to me open and talkative, most of times (and lots of credit to the hostel on that one, for promoting Sangría Workshops, Pub Crawls and City Tours frequently). Not to mention the Rooftop, which is cozy, good service and food.

Central location and frequently cleaned bathroom

Very central location. All the main tourist attractions are within walking distance. You may not need to use public transport at all. The building is old but well equipped. WiFi works and they clean the bathrooms very often. In fact, you may be better off booking the dormitory with shared bathroom instead of the dormitory with private bathroom. I booked the 12-bed dorm with a bathroom inside. There is only one shower stall and one toilet stall in that room for 12 people to share. I used the common bathrooms available outside my dorm room instead. There are two shower stalls and two toilets in each common bathroom and there is one such bathroom on each floor for men and women separately. They clean those bathrooms much more often than the one inside the dormitory.

Nothing.

Comfy bed, clean rooms and shower, sangria party always fun in the Cave

I have stayed at The Hat many times in the past 3 years. Love the Sangria making. Staff is great, location is great. Bed are comfy, rooms are clean. But wow, the price has really gone up for a dorm room! I know everything has gotten more expensive but a dorm bed for $75 is a lot! I wish they offered discounts for repeat visitors.

Great location

The location is perfect, near Placa Mayor and all the other attractions. The rooms are very clean and the drawer for your stuff is big enough. The staff is also helpful and ready to answer questions. There is a rooftop bar. Towels and padlocks are paid extra. The breakfast looked great.

There was only one shower and one toilet for 8 people. As the room was detached from the main property, there wasn’t an option to use another toilet/shower. There were extra toilets near the kitchen (in the main building), but no showers.

Best experience ever!!!

From the moment we arrived to the Hat we felt welcomed. Gorka and the staff make you feel right at home. We had some personal inconveniences and he helped us fix them and get with our trip. The facilities and activities were great. The city tour and guide were great and very informative. I would recommend this place to all my friends. Thank you.

Great location, friendly staff, but high prices.

For a hostel, the place is very comfortable and clean. The price was high for a shared dorm room but the central location is probably the reason for that.

Great location and comfy place to stay with plenty of privacy if needed (beds are especially comfy)!

Great location, very clean and well run hostel. The beds are very comfy (with two pillows!!) and offer great privacy. Staff are very accommodating and friendly. The bar on the roof terrace is a great place to relax and meet fellow travellers.

No breakfasts and apart from the terrace bar there isn't a huge communal area to relax and meet people. The bar crawls and events are good although a little expensive compared to other hostels. But still affordable andbgoodnfun

Very friendly staff, good breakfast and great location. The bar on the roof was also very nice though a bit expensive. Everyday walking tours start from the hostel at 2 different hours. The commodities near the hostel are great, restaurants, supermarkets and tourist attractions.

The room I was on was very small so if other guest were also up it was a bit awkard and cramped moving around and because of that any noise at night is really loud. The beds also were not the most comfortable.
