First and foremost, I think the idea of the art hostel is amazing and it has *so* much potential. It's wonderful project and I hope that it can be realized. But at present, it's disappointing. My partner and I stayed in the Soul Cave, which could have been perfect, especially if you're looking for something between camping and staying at a hostel. The temperature in the cave was maintained pretty comfortably throughout the night. The furniture and bedding, though, was disgusting. The furniture was obviously salvaged, which is cool, but there was no attempt to restore it. It was cracked, peeling, and dirty. The mattress was soiled and there was a mattress protector thrown on it, but it clearly did not fit. The bedding was obviously unwashed as it smelled like dirty laundry, was stained, and had a lot of holes. I would have preferred being given a clean sleeping bag over what was given. I realize that, being a cave, things are not going to be pristine, but it should at least not have holes and be washed between guests. The land is not well taken care of. There is a lot of salvaged furniture strewn about that, again, was obviously used as found and not even cleaned, much less retired to a useable condition, such as dirty car seats on the edge of the walkway. The main house is really run down, with trash all over the ground and a disgusting bathroom to be shared amongst everyone ( which would be fine if it was kept clean!). The toilet seat was always wet and the shower was discolored and scummy. There was a tiny bar of soap to wash your hands and only one hand towel to be used that was not changed once in the three days we were there. Lastly, the volunteers were not very welcoming. They seemed to do the absolute bare minimum. There is a couple that engages in inappropriate behavior in front of guests. There's also a lot of weed consumption, which would not be bothersome except they smoke it right in front of the back door, making the smell unavoidable. They cook interesting donation-based meals,which is nice,but the kitchen is not hygienic. One volunteer dropped a slice of tomato and garlic on the visibly-soiled floor and instead of putting it in compost, she gave it quick rinse and put in back in the food served to guests. The idea of the art hostel is amazing, but how it is at present is not a home for artists to run a hostel in exchange for an inclusive community but a place for crust punks to squat and get high.

Beautifully bucolic in the green valley. PAY ATTENTION to directions given by the owner. DO NOT trust Google maps for the correct route. Keep to the ashphalt road after entering Hoya De Pineda. DO NOT take any roads which have a sign indicating a dead end. Continue down to the small church and park your car. Simples.

One of the most amazing hostels i went too. Great sunsets in the morning. Lovely crew of volunteers that are ready to help u whenever u need. Slept a couple of nights in one of the caves and it was just perfect to get rested and some peace. If you are looking for open minded people and a a place to get away from the daily stress and tourist trap go here and you will definitely stay longer than planned.

Brilliant! Cool nature, cute animals, great staff! Clean & cozy.

Very nice stay there. Good prices and everything Clean and people are friendly. Nice area and its also possible to sleep in a cave.

My partner and I had a great time here. You won’t get much better for 10EUR per night plus a modest donation for breakfast and dinner. Had a great time jamming with the other guests and hosts. We found it clean but basic … what do you expect for the price. The one star review crowd should go back to their 5 star hotels!

The super cheap price is the main positive of this place. Great views from the roof. You can pick lemons and oranges from the garden. It's not for people who like cleanliness. Kitchen and bathroom full of flies, the dishes are not very clean. You do not feel well in the duvets and the flies will wake you up in the morning.

This is such a special and amazing place to calm down, relax in the sun or go on little hiking trips. The hostel has a very special system with volunteers taking care of most things and cooking amazing meals (donation based) everyday. We had three amazing nights in a cave, which was an experience by itself. Don’t expect any kind of standard “comfort” - but open your mind for a special time.

This is a very special and unique place. We met so many wonderful people there, definitely would like to visit again.

Great host. Beautiful views. Highly recommended. Feeling like at home. Low prices.

A relaxing lovely little place. This is where you get away from it all. Good beds, nice owners who live there themselves. Plenty of little places on the rooftop, balcony and hillside to sit and enjoy the quietness. We visited Roque Nublo, Tejeda and La Culata from here just using the busses.

(Translated by Google) Remote site in the middle of the mountains, 5 minutes from the parking lot, walking on a dirt road with several fig and tuneras. Great to disconnect from the world and connect with Nature !! Family treatment, room caves, young volunteers and the manager Dan, very friendly and helpful. Thanks guys for a pleasant stay !!! (Original) Sitio alejado en medio de las montañas, a 5 minutos del parking, caminando por camino de tierra con varias higueras y tuneras. Genial para desconectar del mundo y conectar con la Naturaleza!! Trato familiar, cuevas de habitación, jóvenes voluntarias y el encargado Dan, muy amable y servicial. Gracias chic@s por una estancia agradable!!!

(Translated by Google) Dan, the young man who attended us was suuuuper friendly and attentive ... lovely! All very well! The place is basic, but very nice ... the best: the shearwaters singing their weñe weñe in the middle of the night hehehe! (Original) Dan, el joven que nos atendió era suuuuper amable y solícito...encantador! Todo muy bien! El lugar es básico, pero muy agradable...lo mejor: las pardelas cantando su weñe weñe en medio de la noche jejeje!

Wonderfull magical place. Relaxed people. Amazing view to the volcano hills.

(Translated by Google) the camino art hostel was definitely our hostel highlight on gran canaria! We were there for a night at the beginning of the week and have now returned for the last two nights over half of the island, because by far the most beautiful accommodation is! beata and benji are quiet and very warm hosts and you can not help but feel at home with them. the hostel is far from the hustle and bustle, between beautiful mountain chains, in the green island idyll. We are totally excited and would come back anytime. There are two bathrooms (very clean!), a dorm with 4 places, 1 single and 2 double rooms. The possibility to stay in the "cave" should definitely be used! the kitchen is fully equipped (except for the oven - unfortunately) and can be shared. an absolute must! (Original) das camino art hostel war definitiv unser hostel-highlight auf gran canaria! wir waren anfang woche für eine nacht hier und sind nun wieder für die letzten zwei nächte über die halbe insel hier hin zurück gekehrt, weil es mit abstand die schönste unterkunft ist! beata und benji sind ruhige und sehr herzliche gastgeber und man kann sich bei ihnen nicht anders als zuhause fühlen. das hostel ist fernab vom rummel, zwischen traumhaften bergketten, in der grünen inselidylle. wir sind total begeistert und würden jederzeit wieder kommen. es gibt zwei bäder (sehr sauber!), ein dorm mit 4 plätzen, 1 einzel- und 2 doppelzimmer. die möglichkeit im "cave" zu übernachten sollte man unbedingt nutzen! die küche ist vollausgestattet (bis auf den ofen - leider) und kann mitbenutzt werden. ein absolutes muss!

(Translated by Google) A quiet and very well-appointed little paradise! (Original) Un petit paradis tranquille et très bien aménagé !

Artesanal ... Really nice hospitality, but do not expect private life here. It is more student comunidad living with amazing view and valey walk or sleaping in caves with cats :D I love it

Such a lovely community on the edge of gorgeous mountains, rainbow family vibes Graciasss

This place is a mess. I wouldn't go there again and i wish i could have been somewhere else. Its loveless and without any positivity or warmth. Its dirty everywhere. The kitchen is a mess. The bathroom is so dirty. Just a bad energy everywhere. How can you give people such a home? Sure better than no home... But I would make my guests to have it lovely, cozy and comfortable. The only positive thing (because there is always something positive) was this creative space that people created there. Always have enough worth for yourself, to rest in a lovely, peaceful and warm environment!

Lovelly place where you can relax and meet many interesting people ..the volunteers are doing a great job at keeping it cool 👌🏼😎

To think some dont get what it is, the spirit that is within Camino Art and its surrounding is tragic to how we have evolved, its truly a joyous place inside and out! If you like nature, art,music and star gazing this is your place loved every minute beautifuL peoples are Draw n 😘

Still loving it. Feels like the home I never knew I had. ❤

(Translated by Google) A place full of love and magic (Original) Un lugar lleno de amor y mágico

Stunning views, great atmosphere. Recommend a cave if your budget will stretch

BEAutiful mountain house with very relaxed location, perfect for chill out, also for mountain trips, hiking, they have dorms and private rooms as well

The best hostel! Beautiful place, I love it! <3

Quite ace

Great hostel for an escape from reality

(Translated by Google) Total lack of hygiene throughout the house. The kitchen and bathroom were a disaster, although the guy who served us was charming, (one thing does not mean the other). I would not go crazy (Original) Falta de higiene total en toda la casa. La cocina y el baño eran un desastre, aunque el chico que nos atendió era encantador, (una cosa no quita la otra). No volveria ni loca

(Translated by Google) Nefarious ...... when we arrived at the site we were greeted by a very friendly boy but when we entered it was scary to enter the room, walks, I mean in the whole house! A smell of sweat and terrible dirt! (I was gagging) 🤢 Upon arrival he told me to lower my mask, because all the guests who were there were without eya😏 I had already paid and I decided to leave ayi at 11:00 p.m. without having anything to look for where to stay, the truth is that I preferred to sleep in the car ... I tell the boy that if he gave me back the money because it is not what he has on the internet at all and he answers that he is very sorry but that he cannot return it to me ..... I mean I lost the money but .... although I lost it, I preferred to lose it before staying ayi !! I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT AT ALL !!!! Apart from feeling cheated ..... 😠😠😠 (Original) Nefasto......al llegar al sitio nos recibió un chico muy amable pero de que entramos daba miedo entrar en la habitación, paseos, osea en toda la casa! Un olor a sudor y suciedad malísimo!( me daban arcadas)🤢 Al llegar me dijo que me bajase la mascarilla, porque todos los huéspedes que estaba ayi estaban sin eya😏 Ya tenía pagado y decidí marcharme de ayi a las 23:00h sin tener nada buscado donde alojarme, la verdad que ya prefería dormir en el coche.... Le digo al chico que si me devolvía el dinero porque para nada es lo que tiene puesto en internet y me responde que lo sie te mucho pero que no me lo puede devolver.....osea perdí el dinero pero....aunque lo perdí prefería perderlo antes de hospedarme ayi!! NO LO RECOMIENDO EN ABSOLUTO!!!!Aparte de sentirme engañada.....😠😠😠

(Translated by Google) As I arrived I left although I lost the money, I have horses and the stables are much better than that. (Original) Tal y como llegué me fui aunque perdí el dinero, tengo caballos y las cuadras están bastante mejor que aquello con eso lo digo todo

(Translated by Google) Small youth hostel, interesting for its artistic ideas. The building being full, we spent the night in a CAVE / CELLAR, on the mountainside, an experience to know, a path through the rich greenery of the local microclimate to access the room. Unforgettable (Original) Petite auberge de jeunesse, intéressante par ses idées d'artistes. Le bâtiment étant plein, nous avons passé la nuit dans une GROTTE/CAVE, à flanc de montagne, une expérience à connaître, un chemin à travers la riche verdure du micro climat locale pour accéder à la chambre. Inoubliable

A place to quiet your mind and enjoy nature. There are so much about arts here. You will be inspired for sure. Either pick a coloring book, paints, crochet or whatever its pleases you. :) dont come if you are into turisti things...

(Translated by Google) Non-chain bathroom in the water, rooms without windows, common places too small. (Original) Baño sin cadena en el water, habitaciones sin ventanas, sitios comunes demasiado pequeños.

(Translated by Google) Nice place in the mountains. A bit hard to get to, but there are cave rooms, lizards, and a family setting. (Original) Хорошее местечко в горах. Немного тяжело добраться, но есть комнаты в пещерах, ящерицы и семейная обстановка.

Great staff in a peaceful area.

(Translated by Google) The ideal place to spend some time in serenity! Very bucolic. Great helpful and friendly staff, comfortable bed, dinner for € 2.50 for € 2, recommended! (Original) Il luogo ideale dove trascorrere un po'di tempo in serenità! Molto bucolico. Ottimo staff disponibile e cordiale, letto comodo, cena a 2,50€ colazione a 2€, consigliato!

(Translated by Google) I love, I'll come back (Original) J'adore, je reviendrai

Independent feeling, nice alternative place with very good host

This place is totally different as places which I ever visited. I met there really kind people and u can see plants, which are growing really wildly. Nice experience. Thank you 😊

Hostel has good intentions but lacks proper facilities and power of execution to make it the hostel we like to return to. Good: arty/ diy charme, a homely feel, (some) employees are helpfull or sweet. Bad: lacks facilities, cramp living space, mediocre beds and lacks comfort for amount of guests (15 beds - 1 shared bathroom and 1 toilet in the bathroom - 2 m2 kitchen - small 2 people tables in the hall instead of a shared living room e.g. - smell of fecies outside).

(Translated by Google) I spent 4 nights at Bea, I was very well received in this charming house nestled in the heart of a valley where nature is ubiquitous. A good starting point to discover the interior of the island, with or without a car. (Original) J'ai passé 4 nuits chez Bea, j'ai été très bien accueilli dans cette charmante maison nichée au coeur d'une vallée où la nature est omniprésente. Un bon point de départ pour découvrir l'intérieur de l'île, avec ou sans voiture.
