I had an awesome time during my stay at Urban House. The staff was friendly and helpful, they took me out to some of the pintxos bars around town, and over to the surf beach to watch the sunset at night. There was free wi-fi throughout the whole building, and computers to use. Also, breakfast included. What else could you... More

Stayed here for 4 nights with my boyfriend and went for the 6-bed dorm as the other options were out of our price range. We've shared dorms before so weren't bothered but this place was NOT good! Really thin walls and doors that were hard to lock and looked like they'd have been easy to break open so we didn't... More

Ok so urban house gets some bad reviews. This is mainly due to the fact that the people who give the reviews are generally pissed off and want to complain or they are not the type of person who would enjoy the hostel. The staff are friendly and ready to take people out to the best pinchos bars and night... More

We stayed with Urban House as it was recommended by Busabout. We were first left and ignored because we weren't staying in a dorm room on our arrival but eventually were taken to the separate building we'd be staying in (after a short stop at a third building to get the key). The apartment itself was nice, but there were... More

The only positive about this hostel is the location. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm in a building away from the main reception. The room was absolutely filthy, I don't think the floors had been cleaned ever and there were 2 used condoms next to the bed. The bathrooms were disgusting and not nearly enough of them for a...

My girlfriend and I recently stayed at this hostel after seeing its website, however don't be fooled! On our first night, we had a terrible nights sleep after having to listen to our roomate row with his girlfriend for over two hours, listening to him barging in and out and saying he was going to "kill everyone in this room"!...

Not a bad backpackers overall, staff friendly and helpful though a little disorganised. Wifi was extremely slow and often dropped out for long periods of time but there are laptops to use. Mattresses were terrible! Left with such a sore back and found myself trying to position my body between the springs. They were really creaky and noisy too so... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here 3 nights and on the first night got NO sleep as the walls here are so thin and we could hear everything coming from the party that some of the other guests decided to have in the kitchen down the hall. The hostel is set out in several buildings so you may not be... More

Stayed at this hostel not by choice during running of the bulls festival in July 2010. My friends and I were part of the busabout tour. Ok so... Good: location and staffs are friends. The hostel is very closed to restaurants, the beach, the shops. In short, it is well located. Bad: The shower, where do I even begin. There... More
