The Boc Hostels - Palma

Really great location and felt very safe with access to the rooms and main building were with your own hostel card. Generally quite clean but floors could have been cleaner. Good shower facilities but not many sinks (3) and hand dryers (1) for the amount of showers and toilets there were (6/8). Kitchen facilities really well equipped and clean. Overall would recommend for a short stay.

They require guests to check in by themselves and register online, which is very rude.Forcing customers to leave their bank card numbers is risky.

팔마 시내에 있어 공항버스 타기에 매우 좋은 위치에 있습니다. 또한 바다까지 걸어서 15분 정도라 야경 보고 밤바다 보기에 완벽합니다. 호스엘 체크인이 2시부터라 더욱 좋고 키오스크로 셀프 체크인합니다 직원이 친절했습니다. 타월이랑 샤웡용품이 제공되지 않으니 챙겨오세요. 생각보다 시끄럽기는 하지만 신경쓰일 정도는 아니라 다음에 팔마에 간다면 또 이용할 예정입니다. 근처에 메르까도나 슈퍼가 있고 브런치 먹기에 매우 좋은 카페가 있어요!!

Muy contenta con el hostel, uno de los mejores, muy buena ubicación 🤩✅

The hostel is extremely overpriced it is far away from everything, the service is slow, you’ll have to do self check-in and still wait for them. And every little service costs extra. 6€ for a towel, 2€ to choose your bed, 5€ to store the luggage - it is ridiculous.

Situated in a quieter 'less cool' area of the city, it is affordable and the closest hostel to public transport links. The hostel includes an outside seating area and basic balcony. There are kitchens to use, but you have to pay €5 for the hostel to look after your baggage if you arrive early. It can be noisy outside until around 11pm, with a large playground/sports pitch situated nearby. I shared a 4-bed mixed dorm. The experience often comes down to who you meet, and in November it is quiter than at other times of the year. I slept well on 2 out of 3 nights, but on the final night one young lady's phone alarm started going off at 6am (sound and lights flashing). She didn't wake up at all, but everyone else did. We had to shake her awake and she turned her alarm off. 5 mins later, this happened again. And again. She just kept snoozing it, not waking up and the rest of us were now wide awake! We ended up having to ask reception to put an end to it twice. But the receptionist seemed to be unable to use her authority to get this relentless noise to stop. One of the room guests gave up at 6.30 and just stormed out the hostel. At 7am the lady finally got up, turned all the lights on in the room, and made a racket. She was one of the worst people I have ever had the misfortune of sharing a room with. She didn't apologise once. This is not necessarily a reflection on the hostel itself, and this certainly doesn't happen every night. But it is a warning of what *can* happen, and how little the hostel can act. It was mostly full of Germans, and I made a friend with one of them (we ended up going out for food/drinks the next day). They also hire out bikes for €15 euros, which is certainly competitive. All in all, pretty mixed.
