Whoo Bordeaux Bacalan - Hostel

Deuxième séjour pour moi ici, toujours aussi bien !

Ravie de cette 1ère expérience en dortoir!!! Nous avons passé une super nuit, au calme

Malgré la propreté du lieu je le déconseille car on m'a cassé ma valise avec cadenas dessus. Ça prouve qu'il n'y a aucune sécurité dans cet hôtel. Je vous déconseille d'y aller. Je regrette d'y être aller

À améliorer

Buenas instalaciones con todo lo necesario. El personal fue muy amable y dos de los recepcionistas hablaban perfecto español. Aunque me hubiese gustado tener cerca algún supermercado y más opciones en los alrededores para comer, está bien conectado por medio de tranvía.

Toujours aussi bien. Le personnel toujours aussi sympathiques, réactifs et souriants. Petit point noir : le ménage au niveau des lits laisse à désirer.

Overall, the facilities were very good in this hostel: the bed was very comfortable and the shower great, in fact too hot (which you can't always say). I liked the idea of the curtain per bed as it offers good privacy. I liked the fact that there was a happy hour involving cocktails but only on Tuesdays and I arrived at the hostel at 21.45 pm but had to wait at the check in until the person in front of me had finished so that ended up being 22.00 when the happy hour was over so I couldn't get a cocktail or a coffee as the cafe closed at 22.00 so a little bit annoying. The female staff member who gave me loads of helpful info the following morning was very good. She also allowed me to print a copy of my boarding pass at reception which was handy. Poss improvements: I was disappointed that a basic breakfast wasn't included in the room price (even a tea/coffee and croissant). It would be nice to have free tea/coffee offered to tourists all day similar to other hostels as it's a nice extra. When I checked in at reception, I had to wait about 15 minutes as there was one person in front of me but the conversation seemed to go on for longer than was needed. Then, when I got the card for the room, it worked in the lift but not in the door. One of the ladies in the room opened the door and all said that they all had the same problem when checking in. I had to go back down to reception. You probably need to point this out to the younger staff member (girl) who checked me in.

Les dortoirs sont propres, récents et fonctionnels. Deux regrets : les box se ferment avec un code à chiffres que l 'on doit gaire et refaire devant ceux qui partagent votre chambre ce qui n'est pas idéal. Le petit dejeuner, à tarif tres raisonnable (7.5€) est par contre tres basique : yahourts, jambon,fropage, pain, viennoiseries, jus de pomme et orangew boissons chaudes, cereales, lait beurre et confitures. Des fruits frais et quelques extras seraient bienvenus.

What I like : facilities What I don’t like : rude staff. Inconvenient Luggage storage. You need an automatic button for the storage so we don’t have to waste time looking for key when your staff are always playing hide and seek. Unlike other hotels, reception is always away from the desk. You need someone sitting there for hours.

1) shower (same as in jail) 2) receptionists (mean spirit, unresponsive to contacts) 3) you have to buy food from them. 9 euros above. No kitchen. No outside good.
