There is not a nicer place to stay for as great as a price as the Grand Ferdinand. I stayed here for three nights and had the dorm to myself the whole time. That would mean that this hostel is perfect for someone looking for a peaceful place to stay in the heart of the city center. Compared to other hostels, this would not be the place to make a bunch of new friends and party all night. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and it as all the accommodations (to include a pool and fitness center) that you could possibly need. I will certainly stay here in the future!
