I'm so happy my first hostel experience was with Unite! It exceeded my expectations about cleanliness and everyday I saw people cleaning & refreshing the rooms.
Location: 3 min walk to the beach, clubs etc. A little far from Gothic Quarter to walk, but the metro was a 10 min walk away. The area felt very safe, even as a young woman walking alone at night, but I heard some locals mention that the more touristy areas can experience pickpocketing so keep that in mind.
Safety: I appreciated the lock under the bed. I think locks were also for rent. Also, the elevator, stairwell, and doors scan to open. There was someone at the front desk at all times & they have camera security that was actively being monitored for all the common areas/halls.
Vibe: More of a younger college-20's crowd but overall everyone was friendly and respectful. Most people seem to go out to the clubs/beach at night. The common spaces were well designed and enjoyable to be in. I liked the option of having a separate work room as well.
Amenities: You can rent towels 7 euros/ charger adapter 5 euros/ pay for buffet breakfast 7.70euros. There was shower gel in our bathroom but nothing else for washing. Beds were ok size (I'm taller 5'7") and a bit hard but you don't go to a hostel for luxury. I didn't participate in the events they held/promoted due to work, but they looked like a lot of fun, and I appreciated the outreach effort.
My one complaint is that the washer & dryer were difficult to figure out, and the front desk wasn't much help. The service email to reach out to also bounced back for me.
Other than that, I'd highly recommend this stay, esp. for a 1st time traveler who wants a good home base for exploring and doesn't need more than stable basics.
